Tom Ballard, RN, ND My approach is to treat the whole person with natural therapies, emphasizing treating the cause, not just the symptoms. Symptoms are like fire alarms. When a fire alarm goes off you don't turn it off and ignore the fire. The fire is the underlying cause of the disease. Pay attention to your symptoms, but don’t mistake them for the fire. Drugs and surgery do a great job of eliminating symptoms, but fail to address the underlying cause. Toxins, poor organ function, and nutritional deficiencies are usually the cause. A natural therapy is one that works with the body, to stimulate and support healing from the inside.  

Julie Krauss-Lucas, ND As a naturopathic doctor, I feel one of my main professional roles is that of a teacher (the word doctor derives from the Latin word docere meaning “to teach”).  I strive to educate patients about how the body functions and what can be done when there is imbalance. My goal is to empower patients in their quest for wellness by offering specialized naturopathic guidance, encouraging support, and personal example. Establishing a solid foundation, including a nutritious diet, optimal digestion and elimination, strong detoxification functions, daily activity, and a positive attitude, is key to a lifetime of wellness. Using the wisdom of nature and the latest scientific nutritional research, I assist patients in overcoming “dis-ease” and creating a balanced life of well-being. I look forward to working with you on your wellness journey.
