We are honored that you are considering us to be a part of your health and healing journey.  Whether you are seeking care for yourself, your child, or a loved one … this page is dedicated to offering as much information as possible about who we are, who we serve, and how to get started as a member of our practice should you find that our practice be an ideal fit. 

THIS IS

Who We Are

We are a holistic, patient oriented practice that believes in restoring health and achieving vitality through natural methods whenever possible.  We understand there is a place for medicine and emergency intervention and often work as part of a health care team.  We take an “all systems” approach to restoring health, keeping in mind that the sum of who we are is always greater than our individual parts.

Our goal is to provide high quality, compassionate HEALTH care that addresses the underlying root cause of your symptoms and to help you understand why your body is expressing dis-ease. We spend a significantly more amount of time with each patient to uncover contributing factors and to better understand who you are so we can deliver truly personalized care. 

to facilitate in the connections that allow transformation to naturally unfold … to remove that which blocks us from expressing our fullest innate potential for health and life

we honor God’s intelligent design while tapping into the power of nature to restore and preserve the health of our patients, our community and our world …

to transform health care and harness the harmony for the greater good as we awaken to a deeper state of living in the collective consciousness

THIS IS

Who We Serve

Our practice serves a variety of people in varying states of health and a multitude of ages that are seeking natural solutions or complimentary care to improve the quality of their life, restore homeostasis, and/or maintain their health. 

Some patients are simply seeking short term care (like from an injury or acute condition) … others are seeking a long-term relationship with a provider to offer natural guidance in their health and healing journey.  We serve many families seeking a more holistic approach to their child’s health care concerns and/or wellness goals.  Working with expecting mothers and new mamas is a also a very special area of interest.  

No matter your age or your walk of life, we work best with people that are willing to put their health at the top of their priorities.  We ask for your dedication and patience in this journey as many health issues do not arise overnight and are often the result of many repeated choices.  Crafting a lifestyle with routines and rituals that serve the best version of you is our preferred approach and we meet you where YOU are.
