Services
Core Evaluation
Our comprehensive 90-minute initial consultation includes a detailed health assessment, systems review, and personalized treatment planning. This evaluation examines immune, digestive, nervous, and endocrine systems to identify interconnected health issues. Patients receive customized health goals and targeted intervention strategies based on functional medicine principles.
IV Therapy
Direct intravenous administration of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients provides rapid therapeutic effects compared to oral supplements. This treatment supports immune function, energy production, and detoxification processes. Our IV protocols are tailored to address specific health concerns like chronic fatigue and metabolic imbalances.
Prolotherapy
This injection therapy stimulates healing in damaged ligaments, tendons, and joints through controlled inflammation. Effective for chronic musculoskeletal pain from degeneration or trauma, it strengthens connective tissues and improves joint stability. Treatment plans typically involve multiple sessions for optimal results.
PRP Therapy
Using concentrated platelets from the patient's blood, this treatment accelerates healing of soft tissue injuries. The growth factors in PRP stimulate tissue repair and regeneration for tendon and ligament injuries. It's particularly effective for chronic conditions unresponsive to conventional treatments.
Low-Level Light Therapy
This non-invasive therapy uses specific light wavelengths to stimulate cellular function and reduce inflammation. Effective for pain management, wound healing, and skin conditions, it supports natural healing processes without pharmaceuticals. Treatments target musculoskeletal issues, dermatological conditions, and nerve regeneration.

Questions
What conditions do you treat?
We treat chronic and acute conditions including hormonal imbalances, digestive disorders, immune dysfunctions, mental health concerns, and musculoskeletal pain through personalized naturopathic approaches.
What makes your approach different?
Our multi-systems evaluation identifies root causes rather than treating symptoms alone, combining advanced diagnostics with natural therapies tailored to each patient's unique physiology and health goals.
How are treatment plans developed?
After comprehensive assessment, we create personalized plans integrating dietary recommendations, supplements, IV therapy, and other modalities based on individual health history, lab results, and wellness objectives.
Do you accept insurance?
Naturopathic services are typically covered by extended health plans. We recommend checking with your provider for specific coverage details and submitting receipts for reimbursement as applicable.
What is IV therapy used for?
IV therapy delivers high-dose nutrients directly into the bloodstream for enhanced absorption, treating conditions like chronic fatigue, immune deficiencies, and metabolic imbalances more effectively than oral supplements.
