There is a growing interest today in healing the whole person – mind, body, and spirit. At the Integrative Med-Spa, we believe in providing more healthcare options and offer the following innovative therapies and treatments to our patients.

 Naturopathic Medicine
Naturopathic Medicine is built on a holistic philosophy. This healing tradition emphasizes the body’s natural ability to heal itself and focuses on prevention and balance. Naturopathy is meant to enhance or complement, not replace traditional medical approaches. It provides the best of both worlds by blending the wisdom of ancient healing practices with proven methods of modern medicine.
Dr. Dengler is our naturopathic practitioner. She explores the physical, mental and emotional aspects of each patient and looks to identify the causes of their conditions, rather than only treating the symptoms. The various treatments in Naturopathic Medicine utilize different modalities such as homeopathy, herbal medicine, clinical nutrition, hydrotherapy and detoxification (see below). This allows for the creation of individualized health plans for each patient based on their needs and goals. It is beneficial for many conditions ranging from acute problems such an ear infection or a cold, to more chronic conditions such as diabetes and hypertension.
One of our strengths at the Med-Spa is our ability to do this by combining Dr. Mozdy’s traditional medical background with Dr. Dengler’s holistic, alternative methods.

 Hormone Replacement Therapy
Stress and hormone imbalances can make you sick and prevent you from obtaining optimal health and wellness. As you age, your body produces less of the essential hormones that affect all the important functions of the body. This can lead to many of the common symptoms and declining health conditions that are so prevalent today and are too often dismissed as “normal aging” or “all in our heads.”
At the Integrative Med-Spa, we examine all of the major hormone systems including reproductive, thyroid and adrenal hormones. With ultra-sensitive testing and targeted treatments based on the results, we can relieve patients’ symptoms by using bio-identical hormone replacement, nutritional supplementation, and lifestyle changes. Vitality, energy, and well-being can be restored.

 Clinical Nutrition and Supplements
Adopting a healthy diet is often the first step toward correcting many health problems. A huge area that often is overlooked by most traditional doctors is the gut. It is the source of a lot of the inflammation in our bodies and should be addressed as both a primary cause of – or contributor to – disease, and the inability of our bodies to heal.
Our food supply is increasingly lacking in vitamins and minerals. Many medical conditions can be treated more effectively with foods and nutritional supplements than by other means, with fewer complications and side effects. Doctor-supervised therapeutic use of nutrients and supplements can replace deficiencies, strengthen vitality, and increase longevity.

 Homeopathy
Homeopathy is based on the principle of "like cures like.” Homeopathic remedies are made from very tiny amounts of natural substances that gently act at an energetic level to strengthen the body's healing process.
It is safe, cost-effective, has minimal to no side effects and is ideal for people of all ages. Dr. Dengler is trained in classical homeopathy and studied under homeopathic expert Dr. Stephen Messer, N.D.

 Detoxification
Children and adults are now being exposed to greater quantities of harmful chemicals in the environment and food supply. The buildup of these toxins can be harmful to the body. Cleansing toxins from the body through diet, supplementation, and other targeted modalities can increase the quality of your life and reduce your symptoms.
We offer special 10-day and 28-day detox programs that follow a specially designed elimination diet and medical-grade food supplements by Metagenics (Genetic Potential Through Nutrition).

 Constitutional Hydrotherapy
Hydrotherapy is the application of water in various forms. It is readily added to other natural treatments to enhance the body’s ability to heal. Constitutional hydrotherapy is a series of hot and cold compresses applied to the chest, abdomen and back, in conjunction with a mild electrical stimulation across the skin. It enhances the immune response, promotes detoxification through the liver, and helps restore the nervous system’s equilibrium.

 Lifestyle Programs
We offer therapeutic lifestyle programs that help you maintain a healthy body composition. These programs help you to lose weight, manage disease, feel better and reduce your risk of developing more serious conditions.
