And unfortunately, our pharmaceutical based medical paradigm has little to offer in the way of changing these trends.

We do this by performing a comprehensive evaluation of all of your body systems to determine what needs support or balancing. This includes objective measures of stress response, digestive function, immune health and diet and lifestyle effects that promote inflammation and contribute to pain and poor health. We provide you with a strategic, yet smarter and more cost-effective approach to reach your health goals.
Good health does not come without effort, yet with the proper knowledge, tools and encouragement, you can achieve this. Health is the most important aspect of your life and if you are sick, depressed, in pain and cannot lose weight then its hard to live the life of your dreams, the life you were meant to live. That is why I make helping you achieve health and happiness my mission. By using time-tested methods of Traditional Chinese Medicine and using modern principles and diagnostic methods of Functional Medicine, we get to the root of your problems and get YOU back on the road to health.
