As someone who has lived with type-1 diabetes for over 15yrs, I get how it is to live with a chronic condition while also balancing the rest of life, including the rigors of high intensity physical activity. As a CDCES, I love my fellow T1Ds, but I specialize in diabetes management of all types and can help monitor and alter meal balance and timing, food-medication dosing strategies, carb counting habits, physical activity, and more. With my continuing history as a power athlete, I also have a passion for sports nutrition as well as general heart and gut health.

My journey to naturopathic medicine was a personal one -- it has changed our lives! I am a licensed family practice physician, specializing in using herbal medicine, homeopathic remedies, acupuncture, and other healing methods to treat disease. I specialize in balancing thyroid and hormones, allergies, and addressing digestive concerns. Your organ systems are all part of the same body, so it makes sense that we holistically support ALL the body functions. Your body is already doing so many things -- it's metabolizing and digesting and detoxifying and healing and filtering. Sometimes it just isn't doing those things optimally.

Our unique focus is Structural Chiropractic. Unlike Conventional Chiropractic which focuses more on medical-based treatment, our success is through correction of structural shift of ONE OR BOTH of your FOUNDATION segments.
Objective analysis of these shifts is performed to determine both severity and correction. While reduction of shift improves most secondary conditions, it's with correction that the real benefits show up. "I just feel more alive" - one patient exclaimed.
