Taking an integrated approach to skincare

Integrative

What is Integrative Medicine?
Integrative medicine is an approach to healthcare that combines traditional medical solutions and treatments with conventional methods, therapies, and procedures. The defining principles of integrative medicine is a whole-body approach, and openness to self-exploration and development.

We draw upon approaches from Western medicine, Naturopathy, Ayurveda, herbal medicine, nutrition and supplement science, mindfulness practices, and mind-body based therapies.

Personalized Treatment Plans
We are all different with unique tendencies. What works for one individual may not work for another. With an integrative approach, we ensure the solutions we develop will meet your individualized needs that focus on your unique mix of skin health, gut health, mind-body needs, and diet.

A typical approach in skin care is to wait until something goes wrong and then treat the skin whether it’s with topical creams or with procedures. Integrative medicine has a different approach where you can be more proactive and consider all parts of you that affect your health.

Some of the factors that affect your health where we take both an outside-in or inside-out approach:

  • Skin Tendencies: we look to see whether you have oily, dry, sensitive, thin, or inflamed skin and tailor our approach accordingly
  • Gut Health: symptom such as gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, or signs of leaky gut and inflammation can all affect your general health.
  • Nutrition: what you eat and how your pair your diet to your body’s tendencies are important to addressing your medical needs
  • Mindfulness and Mind-Body Approaches: we develop plans that incorporate practices that can calm you mind and boost your ability to take on stress
  • Exercise: Your exercise regimens can be tailored to your body’s needs
  • Integrative Medicine Is Personalized from the Outside-In and the Inside-Out

Most cosmetic practices will take an outside-in approach where you will have access to lasers, procedures, and skin care services that treat from the outside first. While we provide treatments with state-of-the-art lasers, cutting edge procedures, body-sculpting therapies, and esthetician services, our care goes an extra level beyond in two ways.

Our topical treatments are truly personalized where we will create customized topical compounds that incorporate the newest research ingredients with herbal extracts to develop a personalized skin care regimen.

We believe an inside-out approach is just as important as the outside-in. Addressing your gut health, nutrition, food pairing, and the mind-body connection are vital in ensuring that you look your best on the outside.
