My mission is to assist and guide my clients in their ongoing evolutionary metamorphosis both physically and energetically. To provide this assistance, I employ a wide array of techniques grounded in a new art of scientific medicine called Functional Medicine, which emphasizes a systems approach based on cutting edge biochemistry research, including knowledge of your individual genetic makeup. The first line of defense of this approach promotes nutrition, lifestyle decisions, appropriate natural supplements, and hormone balancing before the standard use of pharmaceuticals. I also agree with the philosophy of Functional Medicine by embracing the time-honored practices of "Alternative Medicine" such as acupuncture, herbs, hypnosis, and other historically-tested practices.
