Services
Allergy Services
Our allergy services use NAET (Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Technique) combining acupressure and kinesiology to address allergic reactions. This non-invasive approach targets immune system responses to environmental, food, and chemical allergens. Patients benefit from customized treatment plans that reduce symptoms without medication dependency.
Medical Acupuncture
Board-certified physician-led acupuncture treatments address chronic pain, migraines, and stress-related conditions. Our approach integrates traditional Chinese techniques with modern medical understanding of neuroanatomy. Patients receive personalized sessions targeting specific health concerns through endorphin stimulation and energy flow regulation.
Prolotherapy
This injection-based therapy treats musculoskeletal pain using natural solutions to stimulate tissue repair. Specializing in joint, tendon, and ligament injuries, our prolotherapy addresses chronic pain from arthritis or sports injuries. The treatment promotes long-term healing rather than temporary symptom relief through the body's regenerative capabilities.
IV Nutritional Therapy
Direct bloodstream delivery of vitamins and minerals bypasses digestive limitations for maximum absorption. Custom IV cocktails address fatigue, immune support, and chronic conditions. Patients receive targeted nutritional interventions that improve energy levels and overall wellness more effectively than oral supplements.
Functional Medicine
Our functional medicine approach identifies root causes of chronic illness through comprehensive lab testing and personalized treatment plans. This science-based methodology addresses hormonal imbalances, digestive issues, and autoimmune conditions. Patients benefit from integrated care combining nutrition, lifestyle modifications, and targeted supplementation.
