Bridging the gap between conventional and holistic medicine: An empowered approach to midlife health and cancer support.
We are a boutique Integrative Medicine practice dedicated to helping you navigate your journey to recovery and your quest for wellness. We specialize in providing compassionate and comprehensive care for those seeking open-minded midlife and menopause care, with a particular focus on cancer support and survivorship.
Midlife stressors, life with chronic illness or cancer recovery often present symptom-needs and preventive care concerns that go unaddressed. Competent perimenopausal - and menopause care is essential to living midlife fully and paving the way for the coming decades of life.
During and after cancer treatment we offer an expanded toolkit of conventional therapies and evidence-supported Integrative- and Lifestyle Medicine to meet these needs comprehensively.
From your new normal,
to your new well.
The Holistic Approach to Health Challenges
Your journey is unique, and you deserve the best of traditional and conventional therapies, the pharmacy, and the herb garden, the laboratory, and the meditation cushion to support you. Navigating a diagnosis of cancer or other complex illnesses can be overwhelming, and we are here to provide support, guidance, and expertise every step of the way. Feeling well in midlife while going through your perimenopausal or menopausal transition, whether naturally or after cancer, means addressing your physical, emotional, and spiritual needs.
