Our Medical Services and Treatments
Path to Whole Health offers a range of medical, nutritional, and complementary treatment approaches. Each service is considered in the context of the patient's individual needs and medical history.
Laboratory Testing
Specialized laboratory testing helps evaluate individual health concerns and inform personalized medical care. Testing may assess established organ and tissue abnormalities or evaluate functional disturbances that provide additional insight into a patient's health. We consider appropriate diagnostic testing in the context of each patient's medical history, symptoms, and overall health to help guide individualized care.
IV Nutritional Treatment
IV nutritional therapy delivers selected vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. Intravenous nutrient therapy may be considered when appropriate following an individual assessment of nutritional needs and health history. Treatment is tailored to the patient, with the goal of addressing specific nutritional concerns as part of a broader approach to care.
Nutrition
Nutritional therapy focuses on identifying potential nutritional deficiencies and dietary factors that may contribute to health concerns. We take a broad approach to nutrition, considering not only food quality and nutrient intake but also the ways thoughts, emotions, and lifestyle may influence overall well-being. Individualized nutritional guidance can help inform a personalized approach to whole-person health.
Biopuncture
Biopuncture is a complementary treatment approach that combines concepts associated with acupuncture, homeopathy, and orthomolecular medicine. It involves injecting selected preparations, such as homeopathic products or nutrients, at specific points in the body. Biopuncture may be considered as part of an individualized treatment plan, depending on the patient's health concerns and clinical assessment.
Acupuncture
Medical acupuncture involves inserting fine needles at specific points on the body and may be used to help manage certain health conditions, including some types of pain. Research suggests that acupuncture can influence nervous system activity and other physiological processes. Acupuncture may be incorporated into an individualized treatment plan based on the patient's health concerns and clinical needs.
