6 STEPPING STONES ON YOUR PATH TO WELLNESS
Without a clearly defined path, it’s easy to get lost. Good health requires that we integrate all Six Stepping Stones in our plan of action. And when we say “we,” we really do mean all of us – not just the staff of the Holistic Wellness Center, but also yourself, as you are the steward of your body and mind.
We developed the Six Stepping Stones after working with hundreds upon hundreds of people seeking guidance on true wellness. We saw that people were tired of covering up their symptoms with quick ‘fixes’ that often came with big side effects. We also observed that people who sought more natural solutions were frustrated by the sheer amount of information available – how were they to possibly know what applied to their unique situation?
If you’re looking to effectively address your problems at the level of cause, you must have a research-based, customized, and organized plan – the Six Stepping Stones.
DETOXIFICATION PROGRAMS
There is no escaping toxins – they are in the foods we eat, the air we breathe, and the products we use. While our bodies are natural detoxifiers, we can become overloaded and sluggish. The first step for most of our members is to embark on a completely personalized detoxification program that includes physician-grade, plant-based supplementation and real food (no crazy crash diets EVER at our clinic – only habits that you can maintain for life!). The detox helps “clear house” and prepares your body for the rest of the work you will do.
HORMONE BALANCING
There are hundreds and hundreds of hormones in the body. Abnormalities can cause a host of health issues, ranging from memory problems to fatigue and mood disorders to stubborn weight gain. One hormone imbalance can cause a cascading impact, effecting others and causing even more health woes. It’s imperative that we do proper testing to find disruptions in your hormone levels, which allows us to tailor our recommendations to your unique situation.
STRESS MANAGEMENT
A healthy body quickly returns to normal after a stressful situation. The problem with life today is stress is ongoing and many people never return to “normal.” Chronic financial worries, a stressful job, or a bad relationship keep us locked in fight-or-flight.
WHOLE NUTRITION
There is a growing body of evidence linking diet with the explosion of chronic diseases today. You will undergo specific testing that assesses your food intolerances and allergies. This way, there is no question what you should and should not eat for optimal health. Our lending library includes cookbook resources, and we further educate you with a grocery store tour to help you better understand healthy shopping.
EXERCISE PROGRAMS
We’ve long been told if we want to be healthier and live longer we need to drop the pounds, but turns out being fit is the best predictor for longevity, even if you’re overweight.
NERVOUS SYSTEM
A systemic functional neurological evaluation is provided to each member to help us identify weak areas of the brain. We also offer chiropractic care, which addresses the spinal cord and exiting nerves to ensure proper function of the organs and address any musculoskeletal problems.
