Supplements and Nutrients
So many people are suffering from nutrient depletion disorders due to underlying absorbtion issues, autoimmune conditions, SIBO, leaky gut and more. With our soil and foods being nutrient deficient it can be challenging to ensure that our bodies are receiving and absorbing the necessary nutrients to function optimally. What and how we eat supports our immunity, metabolism and overall inflammatory levels. We offer a wide range of recommendations on supplements supplied either orally, or even IM injectables.

Hormone Optimization
Hormonal changes are natural, but suffering shouldn’t be. Many women are told their symptoms are simply “part of aging” or “normal,” but persistent fatigue, mood changes, chronic pain, and sleep disruption may signal hormone deficiencies that deserve attention. These symptoms are not a personal failure, they are a result of diminished hormones that affect every system of the body.
The Benefits of Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy go far beyond menopausal symptom management.
Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, we focus on restoring balance at the root level using individualized, evidence-based treatment plans.
Energy: Improved daily vitality and stamina.
Mind: Better cognitive clarity, reduced brain fog, and emotional stability.
Body: Healthy weight management, increased bone density, and healthier skin/hair.
Intimacy: Improved libido, sexual comfort, and reduction in vaginal dryness.
Comfort: Relief from hot flashes and better sleep quality.
Bio-identical hormone replacement can is best delivered through the skin in forms such as creams and patches. We also offer ‘Pellets’ by Evexipel that are placed just under the skin in a fatty area that will keep hormone levels optimized and at a steady state for 3-5 months.

Weight Loss & GLP-1s
It can be very difficult, especially for women, to lose extra body weight as we age. The number of life conditions that play a role in our weight are almost too many to fathom. From stress, to sleep, limited food choices, lack of movement from work related conditions, hormones, menopause, inflammation and allergies, the list goes on an on. There are numerous modalities that can assist someone in getting started on their weight loss journey, and we enjoy working with patients in creating a plan toward their goals.
Although we often think of ‘weight loss’, what our real focus needs to be is metabolic wellness. Metabolic wellness requires a comprehensive approach involving optimized nutrition, weight bearing and sometimes a medication such as a GLP-1 can contribute significantly in making those changes. Our prescription and plant medicine based offerings are supervised by an experience Nurse-Practitioner who will oversee your care to ensure safety and the efficacy of your plan.
In recent years, GLP-1 medications have become a focal point in the medical community due to their innovative treatment mechanisms, significant therapeutic efficacy, and broad development prospects.
GLP-1 stands for glucagon-like peptide-1, a substance your body naturally secretes when you eat that tells you when you are full. These medications give your body a boost of this hormone and can:
Curb Appetite: They act on the brain to make you feel satisfied with smaller meals.
Slow Digestion: Food moves through your stomach more slowly keeping you fuller longer.
Regulate Blood Sugar: They tell your pancreas to release insulin, which helps burn fat.
Research has demonstrated a wide range of benefits of GLP-1 medications including neuroprotection, immune system modulation, decreased inflammation, improvement in cardiovascular function, and other benefits. But GLP-1s are meant to be used as part of a systems approach to weight loss and overseen by a healthcare provider with experience in metabolic health.
