A Note on Medicine

I believe medicine is more than the cliché bandaid that covers the cut, more than just putting out the fires of imminent danger, much more than shaving off the tip of the iceberg so that the deeper disease appears disappeared.

I believe life is meant to be lived, leaped into, swirled about with, breathed, tasted, felt deeply … danced with.  I believe true healing begins within, and true freedom from disease is found first by the soul.

It is here, at this interface, that I meet my patient, right where they are at, and partner with them.  It is you that creates your goals, whether losing a few pounds or curing the “incurable.” It is you who decides what is meaningful and ultimately brings about your own healing.  I serve, gratefully, as a guide, educator, and safety net.  Together we find the dynamic balance in all aspects of humanness so that you may live optimally, as is meaningful to you.

Balance and Responsibility are cornerstones of my practice.  I believe the body knows only wellness.  When we fall out of balance, lose that still small voice, or become disconnected, disease becomes possible.  As we fully take back our lives and take responsibility for every action we choose, we take back our health, our lives, and our happiness.
