Natural Alternative Healthcare
Our staff is in the process of completing a comprehensive
wellness training program with the goal of providing
our patients cutting edge information about options
for healthy foods, supplements, fitness activities and
lifestyle choices to obtain optimal health status.
Balancing our needs is difficult in this day and age.
Our levels of physical activity are decreased due to
a higher commitment to work and our patterns of food
intake involve an increase in processed foods. These
factors (and many others) may impact our total health
and emotional balance, which may explain the increase
in feeling "stressed-out" so often.
Our Wellness Staff will help you assess your current
health and wellness status and develop a personalized
diet, nutrition and activity program based on your goals.
The goals of the program depend on you--it may be concerns
about weight loss, fatigue, menopause, osteoarthritis
or other disease related symptoms. Dr. Joel Pins, PhD,
MS, MPH, LN has joined our staff as a wellness consultant
to provide you with state of the art knowledge and methods
to achieve your goals.
Your wellness assessment may include a dietary food
record, nutraceutical history and review, physical activity
history and current health status, and analysis of biochemical
markers. Our intervention strategies will be based
on your assessment, physical health status and tailored
to your personal wellness goals. The implementation
phase of our program is designed to gradually introduce
and continually monitor results. This is truly
an integrative effort in our clinic. You will work with
our doctors, physical therapists and wellness consultants,
and if indicated, medical practitioners to meet your
needs.
