Personalized Naturopathic Care
How Are You Battling Stress?
Dr. Hillary explains:
Most patients are seeking care when they are not well. In today's world, stress is the number one reason people are not able to 1) Improve their health or 2) have no motivation to improve their health.
Life cannot be completely stress free, and our bodies are naturally set up to deal with it. The endocrine (hormonal) and nervous system are constantly keeping us in balance - secrete a little adrenaline there, a little cortisol there, wake us up, put us to sleep, etc. What we are seeing today, however, is a health crisis of epic proportions due to our over-stressed and underactive lifestyles. Diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancers- most have origins that begin with lifestyle choices, and are exacerbated by stress.
As a Naturopathic doctor, my goal is to treat the cause, not the symptom, and I believe in accountability. I strive to educate and learn from each and every patient I meet. Docere, or "Doctor as Teacher", means that I too have to live up to the principles that I share with my patients. I too must be dedicated to my own health. In the years of medical school and private practice I have been stressed out, overworked, and sleep deprived. After the birth of my daughter it became increasingly worse. My intuitive health meter was fading, even as I treated patients each day. I knew it was time to regain my health- at any cost!
I'm learning everyday that true vitality comes from the accomplishment of taking responsibility for my present actions and decreasing the burden on the already OVERSTRESSED system. I do not want to be just a statistic. It is my responsibility to ask for help, and then utilize that help to make better choices. I will not let stress rule my life or my health. It has become clear that each choice I make to improve my daily situation, improves the lives of those around me. Lastly, I cannot live in the past or in the future. The present is the only moment that really matters, and in recognizing this, I become calmer, focused, and yes - more present.
What is your intuitive health meter telling you? Are you overly stressed, overweight, chronically exhausted, and overwhelmed? Do you want to change your situation, but don't know how to stay focused, and where to get the energy? The preventive healthcare market has exploded with information and educational tools on how to decrease stress and improve quality of life but, the truth is, without SUPPORT and PRACTICE these tools become nothing more than a book on your shelf. I am dedicated to supporting your change, and have effective programs to do so. Whether you need the complete overhaul, or just a little push in the right direction, our clinic offers the support you are looking for.

GI Restoration
Inflammation is the underlying condition responsible for heart disease, diabetes, cancer, as well as depression and other debilitating mental conditions such as Alzheimer's disease. The gut is the first line of defense in the fight against the deadly inflammatory conditions that contribute to these diseases. GI resoration improves function by removing allergens, harmful bacteria, or pathogens, replacing healthy bacteria, and restoring function of the gut wall with improved nutritional and supplemental protocols.
Dr Hillary uses state of the art GI testing that can pinpoint where much of your problems may be starting. In conjunction with Naturopathic Neurology, GI Restoration can significantly improve health and increase disease prevention!

Dr Hillary also refers patients for blood/lab work, brain SPECT, MRI, or CT scan if applicable.

Diagnosis is not required for any lab work or special collections, however it is required for insurance reimbursement.
