Services
I currently provide natural family medicine with a focus on clinical nutrition and lifestyle medicine in Tucson, Arizona. I order conventional and functional laboratory tests when necessary to assist in evaluation. These tests can include hormone panels, digestive analyses and environmental labs (urine heavy metals, mycotoxins, organic acids). My medical guidance incorporates the following modalities:
Nutrition
Nourishment includes what we eat, when we eat and how we feel about it. There are many approaches to healing through food, and finding your authentic nutritional balance is key.
Supplemental Nutrition & Nutrigenomics
This medicine encompasses supplementation with natural vitamins, mineral, probiotics, oils and proteins to address genetic and environmental aspects to healing.
LENS Neurofeedback
Neurofeedback is a safe and effective form of EEG biofeedback for the brain to promote bioelectrical self-regulation for adults and children. I offer the FDA-approved Low Energy Neurofeedback System (LENS), which is a passive, gentle approach to target central nervous system dysregulation.
Lifestyle Modification
This powerful form of medicine enhances health through the foundations of life. Healing requires quality sleep, joyful movement and daily connection.
Botanical Medicine
This is the versatile medicine of plants. Naturopathic doctors use herbal medicines from eastern and western cultures in the forms of teas, tinctures or powders.
Mindfulness & Trauma Awareness
This is the medicine of awareness and acceptance. Maintaining connection to the present and processing the connection between trauma and disease is impervative for healing.
Homeopathy & Biotherapeutic Drainage
This is a nano-medicine derived from nature and administered in very low doses to restore balance within the body.
Holistic Pelvic Care TM
This pelvic floor rehabilitation technique offers support for postpartum healing and patients with pelvic pain. Holistic Pelvic Care was created by Tami Kent, PT (who trained and certified me) to address healing from our root, as indicated.
Physical & Energetic Medicine
This medicine involves gentle hands-on therapy to ease pain and support realignment.
