“One
of the first duties of the physician is to educate the masses not to take medicine.” ~
William Osler, MD, Father of Modern Medicine
Nutritional
Medicine Nutritional Medicine is an approach to health care that applies the knowledge
that certain micronutrients are essential for our bodies to function optimally,
and the lack of these essential nutrients can lead to illness. Nutritional Medicine
uses sophisticated laboratory testing procedures to examine biochemical imbalances
in the body, which can cause or complicate a specific health problem. Doctors
that practice Nutritional Medicine use the test results to design a diet and
supplementation program, which will reinstate balance into the body, give the
body what it needs to function normally, and help the patient feel better. For more on Nutritional Medicine, click here.
Hire a Health Coach The patient-centered
Health Coach system is for individuals who want to feel better, take charge of
their health, and maintain balance in their lives. Individuals working with a
Health Coach examine all the factors that affect their health; genetics, nutrition,
medicine, exercise, biomechanics, rest and relaxation, thoughts and emotions;
and then make lasting changes in the areas under their control. For more information,

Nature's Pharmacy Our nature's pharmacy ensures your access to the
highest quality homeopathic, herbal, vitamin, mineral and enzyme preparations
available today, in a timely, cost-effective and convenient fashion. We are constantly
evaluating the quality and efficacy of natural health products from around the
world in order to bring you the best results and value. We also believe it is
essential that you understand what you are taking and why, so please ask us if
you have any questions. We will also do our best to provide you with support
literature and quality and potency assays upon your request. At the same time,
we ask your understanding of
the fact that the Federal Drug and Health Protection Regulations in the U.S.
forbid (by law) the stating of even many truthful health claims for non-drug
products. As you can see, this markedly limits our access to proper support literature.
Needless to say, we will do our best to respond to your requests in this area.

of your therapeutic program. We provide detoxification products and protocols

Blood Nutrition Profile Provides an understanding of nutritional information
based on lab reports. Once the values are input, the program compares them to
healthy values and correlates the blood components for an accurate assessment
of nutritional needs. The program lists recommended products and a description
of the recommended products. It is a valuable teaching tool to help understand
blood chemistries better.
Specialized Health Appraisal, Nutritional and Metabolic Screening Questionnaires
Our Centers have pioneered the development and clinical implementation of a wide
variety of questionnaires, surveys and written assessment procedures which allow
us to develop a more comprehensive understanding of your condition and your actual
needs. Just as importantly, this written take-home format allows you to
provide us with the necessary information at your leisure, with sufficient thought
and without the time and financial concerns that often exist in clinical settings. Your
thoughtful completion of our questionnaires, when and if requested, will increase
the accuracy of our data collection and save the doctor time. This translates
into both improved care and financial savings for you.
