Health Professionals near Apollo, PA

I am a women's health dietitian specializing in the unique nutritional needs of women across the lifespan. My areas of expertise include weight management, PCOS, fertility, pregnancy and postpartum, hormones, and digestive health.

We live in a fast paced environment where there is little time for ourselves. My job is not to tell you that you can't eat certain foods but instead to try to focus on realistic behavior changes that will stick. No food rules, no "one size fits all" approach, just honest support and accountability from someone who cares about you!

Christine Brinker founded Natural Family Wellness Center on the principles of helping people help themselves towards optimal health. We are committed to educating people to learn to listen to their bodies, and take responsibility for their healthcare. We believe the body has an inherent ability to establish, maintain and restore health. Our role is to help identify cause, remove obstacles preventing recovery and provide services that support the inherent healing process. Traditional naturopathic practitioners combine the wisdom of nature with the rigors of modern science. Steeped in traditional methods, principles and practices, naturopathic doctors focus on holistic, proactive prevention and comprehensive treatment.

As an acupuncturist I have learned to believe in the old saying that "the only time the body and mind are separate is in a dictionary". By understanding this mind body connection I strive to not only treat each person as a unique individual but also encourage each person to take an active role in their health needs.

Do you struggle with your relationship with food and your body? You are not alone! It is possible to heal from the guilt, shame, or stress you’re feeling around trying to be “healthy.”

I'm a Registered Dietitian with a background in nutrition counseling and medical nutrition therapy, which allows me to bring in dynamics from a clinical standpoint to assist you in meeting your goals. I strive to offer a personalized approach to guide my clients and help them along their way to success!

Our vision at Frame Acupuncture is to promote longevity, well-being, and empower the population of Greensburg, Pennsylvania, through affordable and accessible acupuncture treatment and nutritional/lifestyle education. We provide optimal emotional, spiritual, and physical healthcare directly to our clientele. With the development of a personalized treatment plan, we focus on each patient as an individual and strive to create a comfortable and healing environment. With extensive training in multiple treatment styles, we have various therapeutic treatments to choose from to reduce any pain and discomfort and select the best possible treatment for our patients.

I help my clients and patients prevent and manage diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia through personalized nutrition.

I am dual-trained in both traditional Chinese medicine and conventional medicine. I have been practicing in the fields of Integrated Medicine and Oriental Medicine for more than 20 years. More than 15 articles of my clinical investigations and medical laboratory research have been published. Beyond clinical review, a healthcare organization links me to multiple insurance companies in which very few acupuncturists can be involved with current insurance policies.

My passion it to support you in understanding the bigness of who you are; the bigness of your body's ability to heal; the bigness of your mind's ability to learn and express; the bigness of your spirits ability to experience and become love. I support your physical healing through chiropractic and natural modalities, which frees the mind to contribute to your community, your family and the world in whatever way feels true to you leading to peace and congruency for your spirit to experience this journey called life.

It is not often we are encouraged to honor our bodies needs. We live in world that teaches us to "watch it" and "have it together", especially around weight and food. Unfortunately, this constant pressure to "be good" can play a role in constant dieting, restricting, binging, purging and an all or nothing attitude around exercise. Fortunately, we can make peace with food and our bodies again. Our approach of trauma informed nutrition counseling and coaching teaches non-diet eating and body wisdom skills to learn to trust and feel safe inside the body and manage chronic issues such as burned and stressed out, PCOS and gut health.

Leah is a licensed Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) who is passionate about preventative care and helping people learn how to properly nourish their own individual bodies. She has years of experience providing nutrition counseling, group presentations, cooking classes, and medical nutrition therapy for various disease states.

At Life Balance Acupuncture, I take a holistic approach to treat the whole person, not just the symptoms (but we treat them immediately and effectively too for fast relief!). Acupuncture treatment helps the body to correct imbalances that occur from injury, stress, trauma, poor diet, and disease so it can heal itself naturally. Therefore, I am able to treat a wide variety of conditions, both physical and mental/emotional regardless of their origin. Many patients report feeling better within themselves, are motivated to make healthy lifestyle changes, and want to take back control of their health and well-being.

In every patient, I see an opportunity to make a difference in that person's life. Many people come to acupuncture after trying every other option. In acupuncture, there are so many ways to solve a person's illness. As a practitioner, it is incredibly rewarding to take a patient out of pain, ease their anxiety, help them sleep or engage in activities that they thought might never be possible again.

I am a board-certified acupuncturist that specializes in treating pain that has not responded to other types of treatment. I work with a wide variety of adult and adolescent patients to reduce or eliminate pain while addressing other health issues, such as the anxiety and depression that often follows an injury. I also specialize in neuro-acupuncture for acute and chronic central and peripheral nervous system disorders. I treat a broad spectrum of health concerns, but special areas of interest for me are post-concussion syndrome, migraine, fibromyalgia, peripheral neuropathy, shingles pain and Bell's Palsy.

I'm passionate about helping individuals regain their belief and trust in themselves by successfully working on layers of their health. By looking closely at all the pieces and parts that make up you, together we will form a map of the journey to make you feel whole again. I am a Functional/Integrative Nutritionist (holistic), Certified Coach, Intuitive, cancer survivor, and visionary artist with 30 years of experience. My style of coaching "Heart-Centered Wellness", deepens your investment in yourself. Call or email me for a 15-minute courtesy session.

Too often, I see people equating being healthy with punishing themselves. I believe your healthiest life comes not from punishment but from caring for yourself in order to live your fullest (and longest/most energetic) life possible. With a background in behavioral psychology, I encourage my clients to find ways to make changes to their diet and overall lifestyle that not only makes them healthier but also helps them to feel more alive. Physical and mental health should exist in tandem, not at odds with each other.

Pursuit of a healthy lifestyle is "Case Specific". When it comes to lifestyle choices like diet, exercise, and time management, one size DOES NOT fit all. At Case Specific Nutrition, we understand that. We work with our clients to create and achieve attainable goals that fit their schedule and lifestyle. From custom meal plans, to group consultations, our services will set goals and provide material that is relevant to YOU! Individualized Nutrition. Incredible Results- Case Specific Nutrition!

As a dietitian with a non-diet approach, my nutrition philosophy is rooted in intuitive eating, honoring our bodies, and experiencing joyful movement. I believe that everyone deserves a peaceful relationship with food, movement and their bodies. I work with clients who struggle with food labeling/judgements, weight-cycling and chronic dieting. Together, we will identify goals that meet your own unique needs that allow for a sustainable recovery.
