A group of natural health conscious individuals dedicated to bringing you
natural health and healing modalities that work. What makes our products
and health practices believable and useful to you is that everything that we
suggest you use to improve your health has already been used and tried in our
clinical setting before we even recommend it to you. If a product does not
perform or has not been proven to work for us then it will not be recommended to
you.
There are many of my colleagues out there that have gone through many years
of rigorous training to become Naturopathic Doctors and Master Herbalists, that
have never practiced one day in a clinical setting. Some of them are
excellent researchers and can find everything you'd ever want to know about,
written on the internet. Many have written books, newsletters, etc. and
have never touched or worked with a patient.
Our promise to you is that if we haven't used the product in our clinic and
found it to meet all of our expectations to our complete satisfaction for
wellness, then we'll never offer it to you.

Naturopathic doctors are trained specialists in a separate
and distinct healing art which uses non-invasive natural medicine. They
are not orthodox medical doctors (M.D.s). Naturopathic doctors (N.D.s) are
conventionally trained in subjects such as anatomy, physiology, counseling,
dietary evaluations, nutrition, herbology, acupressure, muscle relaxation and
structural normalization, homeopathy, iridology, exercise therapy, hydrotherapy
and oxygen therapy. Some practitioners are also trained in additional specialties
such as acupuncture or natural childbirth.
Naturopathic doctors tailor the healing modality of
the needs of the individual with methods which are effective for both chronic
and acute problems. Naturopathic doctors cooperate will all branches of
medical science, referring individuals to other practitioners for diagnosis or
treatment when appropriate.
In practice, naturopathic doctors perform lifestyle
analysis, laboratory testing, nutritional and dietary assessments, metabolic
analysis and other evaluative procedures. They are trained to use a wide
variety of natural methods which involve the individual in the healing
process. Naturopathy is based upon a belief in the body's innate God-given
natural ability to heal itself when given an appropriate internal and external
healing environment. Naturopaths are not involved in the practice of
medicine and do not use drugs or pharmaceuticals, nor do they perform abortions
or surgery (other than minor first aid). They have been traditionally
referred to as "drugless doctors". In reality, naturopathy deals
with wellness and relief from conditions which are the result of stress whether
from mental, nutritional, environmental or physical factors.
Naturopathic doctors treat the cause not the symptom,
when the cause of the illness turns to wellness the symptom goes away.

An important question to all of us that there is no
hard and fast answer to. The cost will depend on your level of wellness of
where you are today, and how quickly your body will respond to the proper protocols
of natural medicine. To achieve wellness you need to commit to a program
of care for at least one year. You did not get ill quickly and your body
will require at least one years to rebuild with proper cleansing and nourishment
with available nutrition. In answer to the question, "What is this
going to cost me?" I can only give you a range of investment into your
health and wellness of somewhere between $100 per month to $400 per month
depending on your personal health level and level of commitment.

I honestly don't know, some health insurance companies
do cover alternative health therapies but at the present time most do not.
You will have to contact your health insurance company and ask them if they will
pay for alternative health therapies and if they will, request their claim
forms. We require that you pay us and be reimbursed by your insurance
company. Most so called health insurance companies are misnamed, they
should be called sickness insurance because you do not use them unless you are
sick. If they would cover preventative medicine then you could reasonably
call them a health insurance company.

This question was partially answered in the question
pertaining to "cost". Your timing in feeling better depends on many
things. Your current lifestyle, toxicity of your body, your willingness to
follow a wellness program, your level of commitment, your mental attitude and
your belief system. Basically, in natural medicine there are no incurable
diseases. There are however some incurable people.
Three types of people are incurable:
| 1 |
Those people
that enjoy illness, they enjoy the attention they receive from other others
during illness. |
| 2 |
Those people
that will not follow a wellness program to completion. You'd be amazed at
the large number of people we place on a wellness program at the clinic that
just will not follow through to total wellness. |
| 3 |
Those people
whose time has come to leave this world and they are aware of it. we can
make them comfortable, relieve their pain but you cannot bring them back to
wellness. |
Other than these three types of people there are no
incurable diseases. In answer to your question "How long until you
feel better?", again depends on you and hard you are willing to work at
good health and wellness, maybe a few days, maybe a few weeks and maybe a few
months. Bottom line, if you will be committed and follow a health designed
program you'll feel better.

Our products are herbal based, food grade, therapeutic
wellness products. Before we advise a client as to what products they
need, to begin a rebuilding process we need to know all about their lifestyle,
diet, past injuries, scars, current prescriptions, etc. We would not
recommend any herbal based product that would counter-indicated with any drug
that you are currently taking. Most of our herb based products are food
grade, meaning "Can I take these with my prescription drugs?"
The answer most of the time is yes, however if we don't know what you're
currently taking then its not likely we'll recommend a program of wellness for
you.

A master herbalist is an individual that has
sacrificed the time, effort and money, literally given a portion of their life
to the study of herbs and herbal medicine. To become a master herbalist is
a long exhaustive study where one trains under the highest qualified herbal
practitioners and herbal pharmacists in the field. The training received
places one on the highest level of herbal competency in the world today.

There are a couple of ways to know if you are doing
your program correctly. Number one, you may start to feel more energy,
more alert, more alive like you felt as a child or teenager. Or number
two, depending how toxic laden your systems are you may feel worse, or start
through what we call a healing crisis. You will not experience a healing
crisis unless you are well enough to handle one. A healing crisis may
involve, a headache, diarrhea, vomiting, a skin rash, flu-like symptoms,
etc. If this happens to you it'll pass in 24 hours. We heal from the
top down and from the inside out, in reverse order of experiencing sickness
symptoms.
