As a California-licensed primary care naturopathic doctor, my primary goal is to partner with you to prevent illness, but if a "dis-ease" is present, to utilize the most natural, non-toxic, and least invasive therapies first. Another critical priority is finding the underlying cause(s) of illness, not merely treating symptoms, therefore, I use hundreds of diagnostic and functional medical labs to help diagnose. My special areas of expertise are: balancing body; diabetes/cardiometabolic; mood (depression, anxiety); hormonal balance (i.e. thyroid, adrenal, bio-identical hormones); healthy aging; weight/fat loss; exercise/nutrition/managing stress; fatigue, optimal health.

If you're exhausted from dieting and obsessing over food, or struggling with binging, purging, or restricting, you're in the right place. I help people finally stop the cycle so they can eat without guilt, trust their bodies, and get their life back. Most of my clients have spent years trying to fix themselves through food rules and restrictions. It never worked. I help them understand why, let go of what isn't serving them, and build a way of eating that actually fits their life. No meal plans. No food rules. Not counting anything. Just learning to trust yourself again.

Chiropractor, DC
North Hollywood, CA 91601
Spinal nerve interference can cause many problems, such as disease, pain, fatigue, illness, and chronic disorders. This can occur when the vertebrae are misaligned, and thus putting pressure on a nerve. This is commonly referred to as a subluxation. My name is Dr. Dean Larit. I am a California Board Certified Doctor of Chiropractic specializing in sports-, work-, auto-related injuries, and Wellness Care. Rather than masking the pain by taking medications, with Chiropractic treatment, I can help relieve the symptoms and ultimately the underlying cause of the problem. I look forward to helping you alleviate your issue.

As a mother of two boys, I'm very passionate about kid's health, nutrition, parenting and healthy living. When Chinese medicine integrated with modern medicine and used appropriately, it can keep kids healthier than ever. This is so important today in US, because children face many more health issues than ever such as allergies, asthma, eczema, obesity and autism! I am also focused on treating Lyme disease. My entire family love sports, so I am passionate about knowing sports and nutrition, preventing and treating sports injuries.

We eat at least 3-4 times a day or 21-28 times a week. Eating is an activity we have been engaging in since we were born. We used to know when we were hungry and when we were full. When this energy giving and life sustaining act becomes a source of confusion, guilt and fear, when eating becomes disordered and turns into a dangerous coping mechanism, it is time to evaluate what we are doing and explore how we can normalize our behavior so our minds and body can function in a healthy way to support our goals.
