As the Chief Medical Officer at Balanced Integration, my journey in natural healing has always been about more than just practice—it's a calling. My passion for naturopathic medicine began at Xavier University and was solidified at Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine (SCNM) in Arizona, where I was honored with awards like the Daphne Blayden. My expertise, deeply rooted in evidence-based medicine, was further honed during a residency with Dr. Peter D'Adamo- NY Times best selling authour of Eat Right 4 Your Type .

Today, I specialize in a holistic approach to health, with a particular focus on supporting those battling cancer. My belief? Healing is a comprehensive journey, encompassing mind, body, and spirit. This belief gave birth to my V.I.T.A.L. approach to health:

**V for Valuable Sleep**: Quality rest is the cornerstone of healing. I guide my patients in establishing sleep routines that foster body regeneration, crucial in cancer care. In fact, I just did my first TedX talk in South Africa on this specific topic.

**I for Individualized Diet**: Each body is unique, especially when facing cancer. I tailor dietary plans to support your specific health needs, bolstering your body's natural resilience, often incorporating cutting-edge genetic tests offered in other countries to precisely understand your nutritional needs.

**T for Through Hydration**: Water is life. Hydration plays a pivotal role in maintaining cellular health, which is vital in cancer treatment and recovery.

**A for Active Mental Health**: Your mental well-being is as important as your physical health. I work with you to nurture a positive, resilient mindset, crucial in navigating the challenges of cancer.

**L for Lifelong Movement**: Movement is medicine. I encourage sustainable physical activity, adapted to your abilities and needs, to enhance overall well-being and aid in recovery.

In my practice, I firmly believe in an integrative approach. This includes working closely with conventional oncologists to provide comprehensive care. Together with a team of experts, we craft a healthcare plan that combines the best of conventional and naturopathic treatments, ensuring a balanced and effective approach to your cancer journey.

I am also certified in mistletoe therapy, an innovative treatment that has shown promise in improving quality of life and outcomes in cancer care. My approach is not just about addressing symptoms but about empowering you to live a fuller, healthier life, even in the face of cancer.
