Patient-Centered Holistic Primary Care
NIHA’s holistic primary care is an integrative medical approach that treats the whole person: mind/body and spirit by blending conventional medicine with natural or complementary therapies. Prevention is key but for existing health issues the doctor will search for the root cause to address with effective treatment.
A thorough initial primary care visit will assess not just your current health status- but your diet, sleep, emotional wellbeing, stress management, exercise and other lifestyle habits that may contribute to your health conditions.
A primary care provider coordinates all of the health care a patient receives. This total patient care considers the physical and emotional needs of the person and how health issues may be affecting those needs. Whether you are coming in for an annual check-up or managing a chronic disease, we focus on the whole person, not just your disease or symptoms. Symptoms may have brought you to the doctor, but advanced lab testing can help identify and address the root cause. We consider test results, lifestyle factors, nutrition, and stress management and develop a comprehensive treatment plan to help you attain an optimum level of wellness.
The holistic primary care model offers not only traditional primary care but also incorporates the best of natural and alternative therapies to help you achieve optimum wellness, not just freedom from disease. These therapies may include acupuncture, hormone therapy, IV therapies, or detoxification therapies.
Our holistic primary care providers are board certified MD’s and will be your partner and guide in helping you achieve your health goals.
