Our Approach

AT SUMMIT NATURAL WELLNESS CENTER, OUR APPROACH FOR EVERY PATIENT IS TO ACHIEVE “BALANCE” IN YOUR BODY (PHYSICAL HEALTH), MIND (MENTAL HEALTH), AND SPIRIT (SPIRITUAL HEALTH). AT YOUR FIRST APPOINTMENT, YOUR NATUROPATHIC DOCTOR WILL GO OVER IN DETAIL OUR COMPREHENSIVE INTAKE FORM AND THEN PERFORM A PHYSICAL EXAMINATION.

After which your doctor will go over in detail each spoke of our proprietary “Wellness Wheel,” explain where your weaknesses lie, and give you tools to help balance your wheel. This, in turn, assists the body toward real healing. Modalities may include genetic counseling, personalized diet and supplement recommendations, exercise protocols, sleep improvements, stress reduction techniques, lifestyle and habit changes, behavioral counseling, detoxification techniques, and immune system modulation approaches. It is when the body is in a state of balance or “homeostasis” that it has a chance to heal from dis-ease. To assist your doctor in identifying your specific "obstacles to healing,” they may recommend one or more laboratory tests. We offer the best and most recent advances in functional medicine laboratory testing available today. Your doctor will also look at any recent laboratory testing that you brought to your appointment from other physicians that you work with. 

THE “WELLNESS WHEEL” IS A GUIDE THAT ENCOMPASSES THE PRINCIPLES OF NATUROPATHIC MEDICINE; THE HEALING POWER OF NATURE, PREVENTION IS THE BEST CURE, THE PHYSICIAN AS TEACHER, TREAT THE WHOLE PERSON, FIRST DO NO HARM, AND IDENTIFY AND TREAT THE CAUSE. WHEN VIEWING THE “WELLNESS WHEEL” THE OUTER PORTION REPRESENTS “BODY,” THE INNER PORTION REPRESENTS “MIND,” AND THE CENTER REPRESENTS “SPIRIT.” THESE ARE ALL CONNECTED SHOWN BY THE ARROWS DEPICTED AS SPOKES ON THE WHEEL. THE ARROWS ON THE OUTER RIM AND MOVING CLOCKWISE AROUND THE WHEEL SUGGEST ALL OF THE SPOKES ARE INTERCONNECTED AND INFLUENCE ONE ANOTHER. WHILE WE AT SUMMIT NATURAL WELLNESS CENTER BELIEVE IN ALL TYPES OF MEDICINE, CONVENTIONAL WESTERN MEDICINE OFTEN TIMES MISSES “THE INTERCONNECTED ASSOCIATIONS,” WITH ALL OF THE SPOKES AND FAILS TO “TREAT THE WHOLE PERSON.” SO GET READY FOR A "NEW APPROACH" TO YOUR HEALTH AND OPEN YOUR MIND TO ALL OF LIFE'S POSSIBILITIES!
