Wellness is a state of being healthy in body and mind, as the result of deliberate effort. It is an approach to healthcare that emphasizes preventing illness and prolonging life, as opposed to emphasizing treating diseases.

Several of my wellness modalities utilize Muscle Response Testing (MRT). MRT is a non-invasive tool used to identify imbalances in the body. The science behind it is similar to a lie detector or polygraph. In a polygraph, a person is hooked up to sensitive electrodes and asked certain questions. The person’s answers generate a certain electrical response in the body, which is read and graphed by the machine, showing if the answers are true or false. In MRT, this is done on a very delicate, minute scale. The muscles of the body are also affected by this electrical state, so we can use them to show this same response, just on a more pronounced, larger scale. Any muscle will become weakened in a state of incongruence or falsehood, making resistance difficult. Conversely, muscles will remain strong and able to resist when in a state of congruence or truth. Muscle testing allows us to access important information about current state of health by asking the body on a subconscious level. We just have to know what questions to ask to get the underlying cause.

Fortunately, technology has come a long way, allowing me to do many of my services remotely. Virtual sessions are handled with email, phone or video chat. Video chat is usually the easiest, as it allows for real time conversations. Currently, Zoom is the service utilized. However, telephone works as well for many services. Email is suitable when a plan needs to be updated, files need to be reviewed, or a long answer is required. It is also suitable when there is a big time zone difference. If virtual session is selected when scheduling an appointment, you will be provided a call-in number or proper credentials prior to your appointment time.

As a single practitioner, most of my time is spent with clients. I devote all my efforts and attention to my clients during their appointments or sessions. I often do not have free time to speak on the phone for unscheduled chats. An assistant would also not be an able to adequately answer questions about modalities and such. Therefore, if you have quick questions, email is the best way to reach me. I will be able respond at my first available opportunity, usually within 24 hours, except for weekends and holidays. If you have many, or more complex questions, please schedule a complementary discovery call with me.

No. Currently, I do not accept insurance payments. Cash, debit or credit card payments are accepted. Some clients have been able to use HSA funds for services. Please check with your provider to see what wellness services may be covered.

No. Payment plans are not available. However, if you have a special need, please feel free to contact me about your situation to see if we can come up with a workable plan. I do offer discounts for seniors and veterans. Packages are also available for some services, which saves on the per appointment cost.

No. I am a traditional naturopath. As such, I do not prescribe or monitor medications. If you require medication, please seek the services and advice from a medical professional who specializes in that area.

I have earned the designation of Doctor of Naturopathy. It is legally recognized profession in the State of Texas. It is different than a medical doctor. I am a Traditional Naturopath. I do not prescribe for, diagnose or treat any illness or disease. I help clients address the underlying imbalances of their symptoms so that their bodies may reach homeostasis and heal itself naturally.

I mostly work with adults and older teens who suffer from chronic conditions. However, I will work with anyone who seeks to better their health in a natural and holistic way.
