Clinical Nutrition/Weight Loss
Our naturopathic doctors understand that what you eat is the basis for your health. Adopting a healthy diet is often the first step towards correcting health problems. Many medical conditions can be treated more effectively with foods and nutritional supplements than they can by other means, but with fewer complications and side effects. Our naturopaths may use specific individual diets, fasting, and nutritional supplements to best treat our patients.
Botanical Medicine
Plants have powerful healing properties. Many pharmaceutical drugs have their origins in plant substances. When there is a better herbal alternative, our doctors use plant substances (herbal medicine) for their healing effects and nutritional value.
Naturopathic Oncology
We have advanced training in naturpathic oncology. This area of medicine is well researched and can provide added support to patients dealing with cancer. With such care outcomes are improved. In addition, Dr. Michael Schaplowsky is a member of OncANP
Lifestyle Counseling and Stress Management
Mental attitudes and emotional states can be important elements in healing and disease. We are trained in counseling, nutritional balancing, stress management, hypnotherapy, and biofeedback. We also attend to environmental and lifestyle factors that affect our patients’ health.
Minor Surgery
Many of our naturopathic doctros are trained in minor surgery and can perform in-office minor surgery including repair of superficial wounds and removal of foreign bodies, warts and cysts with local anesthesia.
IV Therapy
IV therapy is one of the best ways to get nutrients into the body. Often doses which are required to heal the body cannot be achieved through simple oral routes. With IV the nutrients needed to heal various tissues can be administered and healing can begin in earnest. IV therapy is one of the most important tools for such conditions as cancer and fatigue.
Prolotherapy
Need a cortisone shot but don't like the effects? Prolotherapy may be the choice for you. This non-corticosteroid approach uses injectables which decrease inflammation and restore mobility.
Biotherapeutics
Biotherapeutic is a system of naturopathic medicine that encourages the mind and body to regain homeostasis (balance) through gentle means. Through this detoxification process, the body “remembers” what it has always known: to eliminate waste products and absorb what is nourishing. When each organ system alone and collectively can function appropriately, a higher level of wellness can be experienced by the whole individual. alpineHEALTH naturopathic doctors have extensive training in this unique and effective field of medicine.
Pharmacology
Our naturopathic doctors are extensively trained in the use of conventional drugs and understand when this may be your best option for treatment.
