Services
Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy
Our clinic specializes in customized BHRT programs to address hormonal imbalances through biologically identical hormone supplementation. This evidence-based treatment improves energy levels, cognitive function, and overall well-being while reducing chronic disease risk. Patients receive comprehensive lab testing and personalized treatment plans combining hormone therapy with nutritional support and lifestyle modifications.
Perineural Injection Treatment
We offer PIT for chronic neuropathic pain management using low-dose dextrose injections to reduce nerve inflammation. This non-pharmaceutical treatment effectively addresses musculoskeletal pain conditions by targeting inflamed nerve fibers beneath the skin. Patients typically experience progressive pain relief through a series of outpatient treatments without requiring surgical intervention.
Comprehensive Laboratory Testing
Our clinic provides extensive diagnostic capabilities through North American laboratories, including hormone panels, food allergy assessments, and nutritional deficiency testing. This diagnostic approach enables precise identification of underlying health issues through specialized testing for heavy metals, digestive health markers, and environmental toxins to guide targeted treatment strategies.
Traditional Chinese Medicine
We integrate TCM principles with modern medicine through acupuncture and herbal therapies. This holistic approach addresses chronic pain, hormonal imbalances, and stress-related conditions by restoring qi energy flow through meridian pathways. Treatment plans combine acupuncture with lifestyle recommendations to address both symptoms and root causes of health conditions.
Environmental Medicine
Our clinic offers specialized programs for environmental toxin assessment and treatment. This service addresses chronic health issues related to chemical exposures through comprehensive testing and personalized detoxification protocols. Patients receive targeted nutritional support and lifestyle modifications to enhance the body's natural detoxification processes and improve overall health outcomes.
