guides/therapists
Your initial intake with Flourishing Health will focus on your history as well as specific
concerns. This allows us to find root causes as well as treat bothersome symptoms.
We aim to creating a holistic treatment plan that will support you in achieving your optimum
health and energy and the prevention of future illness. You will be an active participant in
this and it is our hope to empower you to become “ your own best therapist”.
We tailor your health care to your individual characteristics. We strengthen your body’s
innate capacity for healing itself by reinforcing treatments of acupuncture, massage,
nutrition, herbs, or aromatherapy, grounding and breathwork.
.
By educating and treating you accordingly, we empower you to make informed, life
changing choices to support your greater well-being.

A Holistic Health Approach – 5 Aspects
The Flourishing Health Model
At Flourishing Health we look at your “whole” picture and offer support to achieve health
goals.
PHYSICAL – STRUCTURAL
The physical aspect involves the material physical body and all that impacts it; any insult such as trauma, infection, hormonal disturbance, lack of sleep, over exertion and other similar impacts on the physical body are considered.
EMOTIONAL – MENTAL
One’s conditioning, feelings, beliefs, values and worldview make up an individual’s emotional profile. There can be triggers that occur to interfere with sustainable behaviors that improve health or prevent disease. Acupuncture treats body, mind, and spirit simultaneously.
NUTRITIONAL – CHEMICAL
Both the chemical and energetic components of consumed foods are taken into the body and utilized as fuel to nourish bodily processes and functions. As with any machine, the materials used to run and operate it contribute to the quality of its’ function. An individualized nutrition plan including more of these foods and less of these will be provided.
ENVIRONMENTAL
The environment we live in exerts one of the most critical influences on the quality and quantity of life we live. Air, water, weather, noise, pollution, EMFs, politics, high stress, economics are some of the many environmental issues we can face. How you engage with these affect body, mind, and spirit.
SPIRITUAL or WORLDVIEW
How one views the universal order, how you practice mindfulness, and who you call out to in times of stress matter. Do you have a support network and how can you develop one may be discussed.
Your Role
Flourishing Health supports you in recognizing that your choices have a huge impact on your health. It isn’t enough just to change something for a few days, or weeks, or until you will feel well enough to go back to what you were doing. You need ongoing support to make permanent changes to help you maintain your health longer. This is a philosophy that expands beyond the typical conventional approach.
We use approaches such as acupuncture and mind-body therapies to complement allopathic (western) medicine. More than half the world’s population uses acupuncture or acupressure to address their health challenges. It has great efficacy for both internal and external injury or illnesses. We ensure that the underlying principles are those that aim to strengthen your innate capacity to heal.
