FAQ's

What is Holistic Medicine?

Holistic Medicine integrates both traditional and alternative medicine. Rather than focus on disease, the focus is on the whole person and all the available modalities for healing.

Using a holistic model to balance body, mind, emotions, and spirit, we work together towards joy, health, and wellness. Coaching empowers you in decisions for health and wellness, and ultimately your joy. Medical consultation, identifying goals, psycho-educational counseling, emotional balance, and bodywork therapies are among the many modalities utilized.

What is a Healing Meditation Session?

Using an embodied energy healing technique, this coaching process allows you to connect to the support that you need to heal your current story of energetic blocks and limiting beliefs. "Change your story, change your life." Sessions available by phone or telehealth.

What is Storytelling?

The oral tradition of telling stories person to person is an ancient practice that allows us to touch hearts and minds. The sharing of stories can heal individuals and create a sense of community. The practical art of storytelling is integral to communication, oral history, and healing. The performance art of storytelling elevates stories to the stage. Join an event of spoken stories, told live, connecting community. Stories have the power to heal us body, mind, emotions, and spirit.

What is Craniosacral Therapy?

"Motion is health; restriction is disease," in the words of John Upledger. This light touch therapy releases tension that restricts the body; supports the system of fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord; and promotes balance and self-healing. Comfortable loose clothing is recommended. Clients remain fully clothed while laying on a massage table. The therapy focuses on releasing the tension in the muscles and soft tissues that may keep bones out of subtle alignment and prevent proper motion and energy flow of the body. With the focus on brain and spinal cord, many chronic neurologic issues can be treated, including depression and anxiety. Individual response can vary from general relaxation to somatoemotional release. For more information, please visit www.upledger.com.

Who takes care of me in the hospital?

My goal is to promote wellness and keep you out of the hospital.

If you are admitted to the hospital, an on-call hospitalist physician will be contacted to assume your care.  If needed by your hospital doctor, I will send them your office records. After discharge from the hospital, I will resume your care.
