Get to the Root Cause of your Imbalance…
I can help you navigate healing by drawing on the best techniques we have: ancient wisdom & modern knowledge centering you & your needs.
understand the Root Cause of your symptoms
Modern Medicine often misses the point by dissecting the Whole into disassociated parts, missing how one condition of your body affects another, how one part of your life affects another & how one medicine affects another…
By addressing all parts of you we can navigate a path to deep health.
The elements I use as a Root Cause practitioner include:
Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) uses emergent science-based techniques to facilitate metabolic health
The principles of Ayurveda provide time tested guidance for diet, lifestyle & digestive support
Somatic awareness practices cultivate the safety your body requires to drop patterns of dis-ease & increased self knowledge
Micro-dosing supports nervous system work & smooths the edges of the healing journey
The Process …
Start where you are
First we develop a detailed understanding of your current state of wellness; how you experience your body, capacity for challenge, how much available time you have for healing work & so on. How long has the story of your unwellness been going on? What have you already tried? We then map this information onto the mineral & heavy metal balances that your hair tissue mineral analysis results give us
Your treatment plan
Pinpointing big issues (& bracketing lesser ones) allows us to focus on one thing at a time. I rely on diet first as the support best accepted by the body. Lifestyle changes are in order. Herbs & mineral supplements correct when diet isn’t enough. Nervous system practices like pranayam & micro-dosing & body treatments are helpful for many. Finally I love helping develop a wellness team through referrals to trusted practitioners.
Refinement, Re-testing
You will be doing the sometimes joyful & sometimes challenging day-to-day work to regain your metabolic health.
I will be there to guide & inspire you as we learn together & co-create your process.
HTMA retesting every 3-6 months will illuminate where we will focus next as your health journey evolves from symptom relief to resilient & sustainable Well Being.

How can you be well in an unwell world?
Better to ask how can you build a well world when we are unwell?
The only choice we have in the matter is how serious we are about healing the world from within.
Modern principles of wellness
It is a time to gently hold values & principles that will orient us towards simpler, healthier, more connected lives. The ancient texts of Ayurveda provide us Modern Westerners with valuable guidance in our relationship to the world we live in.
Sustainability
Are your daily practices sustainable? How long can you keep them up? What impacts does your life-style have on the planet? Lets look at the sustainability of your life both for you & your environment.
Can this process be one of lifelong adherence?
regionalism
What grows where you live? What flourishes? What resources do you have already? What cultures do you have access to?
Ayurveda respects locale; being tuned to your region is sustainable for your body & ecology.
Simplicity
Start where you are. Ease & efficiency must be a part of every routine. Practices of healing & self-awareness take time; but a holistic lifestyle supports itself with grace & ease.
The long term economy of life must be one of clarity & simplicity.
Conservation
What you have at your fingertips is what you should use. Our ancestors knew this because they had no choice, but we can cultivate a way of living that optimizes what is at hand for healing & successful living as a Human.
Anything can be a Medicine.
importance of our roots
Americans are immigrants. Most of us have roots that extend to far flung parts of Gaia. Ayurveda says that our bodies show preferences for practices & foods of our Ancestors.
How do we embody this knowledge?
Awareness & accountability
Adherence to ayurvedic values involves awareness & accountability.
Just as everything in your life impacts you; everything you do impacts those around you. Community health is basic to individual health.
The times we are in call for a synthesis of ancient wisdom & modern science, Body & Spirit, Individualism & Community. Root cause medicine & Ayurveda provide us with practical principles that enlightening the relationship between our Body & Everything we come in contact with.
