During your initial one and a half hour visit, your doctor will ask you questions about your present and past health, while listening to your story. Once a full health history is taken, pertinent physical exams may be conducted, such as temperature and blood pressure, and listening to your heart. The doctor will conduct a thorough review of past laboratory reports, and if necessary, laboratory test may be ordered to fill any gaps in this information. Then your doctor may make recommendations, such as dietary and lifestyle changes, therapeutic exercise, herbs or supplements, or hydrotherapy techniques – preferably in cooperation with your primary care provider.

A follow up visit is often scheduled 2-6 weeks after the initial appointment and lasts 30 to 45 minutes. Your doctor will go over any changes that have occurred, answer any questions that have came up, recommend supplements or other tests if needed, and continue to encourage you on your path to optimal health and wellness.

We offer a wide variety of complementary and alternative modalities to help you achieve your health goals. Your doctor will partner with you to find the best course of action based on your individual needs.
