The result? Smoother, younger-looking skin! Medical microneedling in our office uses the SkinPen, the first FDA cleared microneedling device to clear away signs of scarring, acne, wrinkles, stretch marks, sun damage and much more on the face, neck, back and almost any other location you may want to focus on.

There is no downtime with this procedure, although sun exposure should be avoided for 24 hours post-procedure. Contact us, or learn more form our patient center.
Hormone Replacement Therapy
Following the naturopathic principles, we believe in using the least invasive means necessary to gently encourage the body back to optimal health. As a result of stressors in life including the environment, aging, childbirth and more, hormones often become out of balance and can cause symptoms ranging from mood changes, low libido and sleep difficulty to difficulty conceiving, decreased energy and weight changes. We have many options for optimal hormone health to help you feel like yourself again quickly. From herbs and dietary changes to bioidentical hormone replacement prescriptions and pellet insertions, we have something for everyone!

Changes to our diet and nutrient supplementation can have a major impact on the treatment of acute conditions and the treatment and prevention of chronic disease. A good diet is fundamental to any health and wellness treatment plan and understanding how certain foods can be both beneficial and therapeutic for medical issues is extremely important, as well as knowing the foods that can be detrimental to our health.
