Doctor of Homeopathic Medicine, Registered Herbalist, Nutritionist

Certified Pharmacy Technician, Registered Healer (INHA)

Working as a Homeopathic Doctor, Clinical Herbalist and Nutritionist, I use Nutritional Assessment, Iridology and any Physical assessment necessary to determine the appropriate recommendations, which can include Nutritional therapeutics, Herbal Medicine, Homeopathic Medicine, Bach Flower Remedies, Aromatherapy, Manual therapy (Reflexology), or Reiki. A consultation involves going over all your symtpoms (physical, emotional) to find the appropriate remedy for you.

HOMEOPATHY

Homeopathy is a safe, natural and inexpensive complement to allopathic medicine. It triggers the body's own healing abilities, and can help with both acute and chronic conditions. Developed by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann in the late 1700's and early 1800's. Remedies are chosen on the basis of 'Likes Cure Likes', the Similimum or Law of Similars. The Totality of Symptoms and whole person is taken into account when choosing the appropriate remedy.

HERBAL MEDICINE

Herbal Remedies are the oldest form of medicine practiced. The use of medicinal treatments made from plants to prevent and treat conditions of the body. Herbal remedies takes into account the total person and all symptoms they have (emotional and physical). Herbal remedies stimulate the natural healing ability of the body using individualized herbal blends I compound in the office, or Herbalife Products specific for your individual needs.

AROMATHERAPY

Aromatherapy is the name given to the ancient knowledge of healing and improving health using fragrant essential oils found in herbs, plants, flowers, fruits, bark, roots or resins of some trees. Aromatherapy also takes into account the entire person when chosing the appropriate essential oils to make a blend for each person.

BACH FLOWER REMEDIES

Bach Flower Remedies are a safe and gentle form of alternative healing. They cannot cause harm. They are gentle enough to be given to children, animals, the elderly, and even plants. They stimulate physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. They contain subtle vibrational essences of flowers and trees and help to correct imbalances in the mental, emotional and spiritual bodies of those taking the remedies to promote holistic healing.

INDIVIDUALIZED WEIGHTLOSS PROGRAMS
Individualized programs help personalize your protein requirements for your body, helping you feel full and energized as you shed unwanted pounds. With the herbal products I have available as a Herbalife Independant Distributor I can customize a meal plan to help you get in shape and stay that way.

NUTRITIONAL COUNSELING

A Nutritionist is a person trained in all aspects of nutrition and advises people on improving their health through diet and lifestyle modifications. A Nutritionist is able to evaluate a person’s nutritional needs through a thorough nutritional assessment based on current lifestyle and eating habits. A Nutritionist recognizes that each person has different nutritional needs and is able to customize a unique plan for each client, based on up-to-date scientific principles and practical skills.

A Nutritionist advises people on how to improve health by recommending what their bodies actually need. Since each of us is unique biochemically, what works for one person may be of little benefit to another. Very few bodies conform to norms, averages, or standardized "one-size-fits-all" approaches. The truly successful practitioner must have training that combines scientific principles with practical skills of individual assessment.

Nutritionists:

Recommending food selection and preparation.

Recommending food supplements (vitamins, minerals, enzymes, glandular concentrates, proteins, essential fatty acids).

Educating clients about the benefits of a sound nutritional program to encourage the body to heal itself.

Evaluation of their client's food intake, usually over a given week. Particular attention is paid to the proportions of protein, fat, starches, sugars and fibre consumed.

Designing a program specifically for each client taking into consideration such factors as height, weight, age, sex, level of exercise or physical activity, dietary goals, food preferences, sensitivities to specific foods, and dietary habits in respect to their diet and nutritional deficiencies.

REIKI

Reiki is the Japanese word for Universal Life-Force. It is laying on of hands, energy healing. It removes blockages in the body's energy field. This restores the body's energy flow.

IRIDOLOGY

The iris reveals body constitution, inherent weaknesses, levels of health and transitions that take place in the body according to the way one lives. Iridology does not reveal specific diseases. The iris reflects the condition of the tissues (eg. inflammation, acidity, toxicity, congested lymph, hardened arteries, etc.) Iridology is concerned with restoration and maintenance of health through building the patient's immunity.

Toxins and their locations

Stages of Inflammation

Inherent Weakness or Strength

General Health level

Biochemical Deficiencies

REFLEXOLOGY
Reflexology is the practice of massaging, squeezing, or pushing on parts of the feet with the goal of encouraging a beneficial effect on other parts of the body, or to improve general health.
Reflexology is a focused pressure technique, usually directed at the feet or hands. It is based on the premise that there are zones and reflexes on different parts of the body which corresponds to and are relative to all parts, glands and organs of the entire body.
When the reflexes are stimulated, the body's natural electrical energy works along the nervous system to clear any blockages in the corresponding zones. A reflexology session seems to break up deposits (felt as a sandy or gritty area under the skin) which may interfere with this natural flow of the body's energy.
Manipulating specific reflexes removes stress, activating a parasympathetic response in the body to enable the disharmonies to be released by a physiological change in the body. With stress removed and circulation improved, the body is allowed to return to a state of homeostasis.

MASSAGE THERAPY

Massage therapy involves techniques to manipulate the soft tissues and joints of the body. The purpose is to prevent, develop, maintain, rehabilitate or augment physical function or relieve pain. It achieves results in the relief of discomforts from stress, muscular overuse and many chronic pain syndromes.

ANIMAL CARE
Along with regular Veterinary Visits, Homeopathic Medicine and Herbal Medicine can be a wonderful tool to help enhance your animals wellbeing. I have had success with conditions such as acute diarrhea, problems in the circulatory system, emotional issues, pain management, etc. It is necessary to see your pets Veterinarian first and to remain in contact with their primary care provider while receiving Homeopathic treatment.
