Services
Orthomolecular Treatment
Our orthomolecular treatment uses lab-guided nutritional protocols to correct biochemical imbalances linked to mental and physical health conditions. By analyzing blood, urine, and hair samples, we identify deficiencies and toxicities, then prescribe targeted supplements and dietary changes. This approach addresses conditions like schizophrenia, depression, and chronic fatigue by restoring metabolic balance, improving cellular function, and reducing systemic inflammation.
Lab Testing
We conduct comprehensive lab testing, including blood panels, hair mineral analysis, and urine assays, to map metabolic trends and identify root causes of illness. Tests assess heavy metal toxicity, vitamin deficiencies, thyroid function, and neurotransmitter imbalances. Results guide personalized treatment plans, ensuring interventions target specific biochemical pathways for optimal efficacy and patient safety.
Mental Health Support
Our mental health services focus on non-drug interventions for conditions like anxiety, bipolar disorder, and PTSD. Using the Hoffer-Osmond Diagnostic Test and lab data, we develop protocols to stabilize mood, enhance cognitive function, and reduce symptoms through nutrient therapy. We collaborate with prescribing physicians to ensure safe integration with medication when needed.
Chronic Disease Management
We address chronic conditions such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis, ADHD, and cardiovascular imbalances through personalized nutrition plans. By correcting nutrient deficiencies and optimizing metabolic pathways, our treatments aim to improve energy levels, immune function, and overall resilience, supporting long-term health and disease prevention.
Nutritional Counseling
Our counseling sessions provide tailored dietary recommendations based on lab results and individual health goals. We educate patients on managing food intolerances, improving gut health, and adopting anti-inflammatory diets. This service supports treatment adherence and empowers patients to make sustainable lifestyle changes that enhance therapeutic outcomes.
