PERSONAL STATEMENT
As I am an Integrative
Medicine Physician, I see myself as a healer and mentor
whose primary function is to educate, empower, and motivate
patients to become full partners in their own healing,
health maintenance, and
wellbeing.
For the sake of clarity
the following material has been divided and compartmentalized,
the reality of patient centered (not diseased centered
care) will mean many healing modalities may be used.
These
are some of the common medical issues we can work on,
and help with through a Holistic approach; using safe
alternative remedies or in an supportive modality:
Autoimmune / Immune Conditions
- Allergies
- Arthritis
- Diabetes
- Side effects of Chronic Medications
- Fibromyalgia
- Inflammatory Bowel Disease
- Lupus
- Side effects of Chemotherapy
Cardiovascular
- Stress related illness as Hypertension
- Approaches to Cardiovascular Health
General
- Chronic Fatigue
- Obesity / weight related issues
- Hypoglycemia
GI / Digestive Issues
- Bowel issues
- Reflux
- Constipation
Skin Conditions
Respiratory Conditions
Pain ,Chronic Presentations of any kind
"I find that it is more holistic to work from
an integrative model that can encompass traditional
biomedicine and Complementary Alternative Medicine (CAM),
both under four broad categories":
Biochemical - medications, herbs,
nutritional supplements
Lifestyle - nutrition, exercise, environment,
mind-body
Biomechanical -massage and physical
therapy, chiropractic and osteopathic adjustments, surgery
Bioenergetic -acupuncture, therapeutic
touch, reiki, qi gong, homeopathy
- Cure disease
- Manage or mitigate symptoms
- Prevent disease or disability
- .Promote health and vitality
- .Eliminate toxins and minimize stress
- Enhance harmony, connections to family and community;
be present
- Promote inner peace
