omen’s physiology makes them particularly vulnerable to disorders of inflammation. Because of their sensitive immune system and the cyclic nature of their hormones, women are extremely prone to fibromyalgia,


migraine headaches, abnormal weight gain, fatigue, and thyroid and other endo- crine disorders. Unfortunately, all these inflammation disorders are further exacerbated by

combine traditional, alternative and nutritional approaches to treating these varying symptoms, which often have a central cause. The philosophy is simple: remove the factors that are blocking normal and natural healing, and provide the beneficial (and often deficient) nutrients needed for repair. Our initial patient visit often takes more than an hour, and for good reason. We give the patient time to voice all her concerns, and then we take the time to review her prior history and tests and explain what further testing—blood, saliva, gastric analysis, etc.—will help us get an accurate diagnosis. Because we take an individualized, multifaceted approach to diagnosis, our treatment options vary, too. Treatments can range from specific detox programs to selective nutrition, oral or IV therapies to overcome absorption problems; from cancer prevention techniques to alternative cancer treatment. We do not treat weight problems as calorie or food issues, but as hormone and metabolic dysfunctions. As a result, our weight loss programs are generally very successful, even in difficult cases.
