MISSION
We envision a wellness- based healthcare system that offers effective strategies for disease preventive and emphasizes living lives of meaning, purpose, balance and health. This new paradigm includes promotion of healthy lifestyle practices and choices, selfcare and, when disease and injury occur, integrative treatment option options in addition to more traditional approaches.
We envision a new paradigm for health care: one that addresses the needs of the whole person body, mind, spirit and emotions- and one that include a variety of treatment options ranging from ancient traditions and multicultural approaches to never science-based modalities.
