OUR TEAM HAS HELPED THOUSANDS OF PATIENTS WITH COUNTLESS HEALTH ISSUES.

Holistic medicine can be used to treat many different conditions. Below are just SOME of the things we see every single day. This is not meant to be an all-inclusive list, though. We would love to talk with you about how we might be able to help you with your particular health issues.

Back & Neck Pain

Back and neck pain are some of the most common reasons that people seek out holistic care. It is often caused by a variety of factors including possible trauma/injury, postural conditions, degenerative changes, overwork, stress and emotional issues. Our services help support the body from muscular, skeletal, neurological, and energetic avenues, and can help correct the imbalance and reduce pain. Through the use of manual adjustments, muscle and fascia release, increased circulation of blood flow and decrease in inflammation, the treatments are aimed at correcting the problem and not just masking the pain.

Migraine Headache

Headaches are another extremely common complaint that people see us for. It is often their primary or secondary complaint – and is a present condition in greater than 70% of the patients that we see. Often times skeletal misalignments and muscular tension can lead to headaches, which makes chiropractic and massage therapy very helpful. Traditional Chinese Medicine (acupuncture) is also extremely effective for headache is that we see each headache as unique. Some people have headaches that start at the back of their head and wrap around to the front with a stabbing pain, while others feel a squeezing sensation across their entire head. Some headaches are made worse with bright lights, while some are made better with exercise. Every single headache is different, and therefore requires different treatment.

Post-Concussive Disorder

Following a traumatic injury such as a fall, a car accident or a physical attack, many people experience post-concussive disorder. This can include migraine headaches with accompanying nausea and dizziness, tinnitus, confusion or disorientation. By utilizing our different therapies in unison we are can restore the body’s equilibrium in a way that lessens these symptoms through the course of treatment, and many people see 100% recovery.

TMJ Pain

Many people experience pain at their temporomandibular joint (TMJ). This is often the case for people that clench their jaw or grind their teeth, but also for people that have had injury or reconstructive surgery to their jaw. Many of our techniques can help relax the muscles of the neck and jaw that lead to TMJ pain. And because clenching and grinding are actions that are often caused by, or at least made worse by stress, we can help stop the problem in its tracks by treating the emotional balance and reaction to stressors in daily life.

Arthritis

Osteoarthritis, degenerative or rheumatoid – are all very well treated by holistic therapies. All of our treatments specialize in reduction of inflammation and therefore reduction of pain and increase in function. The specifics of recommended treatment vary depending on the type and location of the arthritis.

Muscle Strain/Over-Use Injuries/Tendonitis

Many patients see us for job-related over-use injuries, or sports muscle strain injuries. By utilizing combinations of acupuncture and massage therapy, cupping, kinesiotaping, heat and/or ice, we are able to help muscles recover and repair more fully.

Anxiety

Emotional struggle is something that most people experience in their lives, and sometimes it is not talked about enough. The word “anxiety” is too vague of a word, as it means different things to different people. For some they have a busy mind and can’t feel calm, they have palpitations and they can’t sleep at night. For some they have digestive upset, they worry all the time, and they withdraw from things in their life. By balancing the flow of qi in the body qith acupuncture, decreasing tension and cortisol levels with massage therapy, and discussion about slow/deep breathing strategies, we can help to improve symptoms of anxiety.

Fertility

No matter where you are in the process, Chinese Medicine is a treatment that has been shown to enhance fertility. Whether you are just starting to try to conceive, you have unknown origin fertility issues or you have clinically diagnosed male or female fertility issues, acupuncture can help prepare your bodies for conception. By helping to balance hormones and regulate the menstrual cycle, reduce stress and make your body more healthy, acupuncture is a wonderful treatment at any stage in trying to conceive.

Digestive Disorders

IBS, chrohns, celiac, GERD, and others can all be helped with holistic treatment. Even some symptoms that are not severe enough to be diagnosed clinically, but are experienced as bloating, gassiness, heartburn, can all be improved with holistic treatments.

Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is another diagnosis for which holistic medicine is being used more and more. Often times medications are not effective, or come with many side effects. People experience pain all over their body and severe exhaustion. Many patients use all of our holistic treatments in unison and see amazing results over the course of treatment, noting improvement in energy levels, ability to participate more in their family again, improvement in their activities of daily life, improvement in mood and reduction in pain.

Wellness

That’s right! Feeling good, strong and healthy? Want to stay that way? It has been said that disease is much easier to prevent before it has started, than it is to treat once it is present. In other words, using holistic medicine as a preventive measure is the BEST way to use it. For the same reasons you might be compelled to eat well, exercise, and meditate, using integrated holistic therapies can help keep you balanced and healthy and symptom-free for a longer time.
