Unlike conventional medical care providers, we first help patients heal but then also empower them with knowledge and tools to avoid many of the pitfalls that created their illness in the first place. No matter where you are right now, with our expert guidance you can heal and lead a vibrant life! With step-by-step guidance by our care team, you will implement an integrative approach to your wellness, drawing from the most up-to-date nutritional science and lifestyle medicine, to significantly improve your health and alleviate symptoms.
In a typical 7-minute doctor's visit, there is little time to understand the depth of your illness, let alone the contributing factors that may have caused it. During our in-depth intake consultation, we take the time needed, one-on-one, to conduct a thorough review to understand all the potential triggers for your illness. This review includes your past medical history, your past and present diet, environment, stress levels, and gut health. Your in-depth health history is the start to unraveling the root causes of your illness.
Not only is each patient biologically unique, their illness is unique, too. There are so many factors that may be to blame for your illness — from lifestyle choices, to food choices, to allergies, and even toxins in your immediate environment. And let's not forget mindset (which plays a big role in your health). After your intake consultation, we may conduct further specialty lab testing. We also use other assessment tools to get the full picture of your health so that we can determine a precise diagnosis and then come up with a Transformational Wellness Plan unique to you.
Unlike conventionally trained doctors, our care team always focuses on getting to the root causes of your illness. We examine the key cellular imbalances that are responsible for virtually all symptoms you’re experiencing right now. Also known as functional medicine, our care is so effective because we focus on dealing with the "up-stream" catalyst of chronic illnesses — including toxicity in your home or workplace, potential food intolerances and allergies, gut and hormonal imbalances, along with mindset issues that all determine how healthy you are to date.
Changing your lifestyle may seem daunting, but we teach you how to use mindset tools to overcome stubborn habits that aren't serving you any longer. We make the prospect of becoming healthy "fun" and have a wide range of tools in place to support you during your health transformation and beyond. We may leverage health coaching and other forms of support and accountability so your new healing lifestyle practices can become an integral part of your everyday life. We may also harness the support of online communities to give you support remotely as you make important changes that translate into lasting health.
Did you know that it takes an average of 17 years for clinical breakthroughs to make their way into your conventional doctor's office? That means many health care practitioners are dispensing outdated advice and not using the best lab testing available for your care. Chances are they are not even aware of the proper testing that could make all the difference in your healing plan. At Alliance Integrative Medicine, we are trained in up-to-date functional medicine — including the best, most advanced testing — and we pair that with current nutritional science so that you can finally achieve your health goals.
"I suffered for almost 4 years with Meniere’s disease – including hearing loss, tinnitus, frequent vertigo episodes and many unsteady days. After Dr. Woolford recommended acupuncture, I was anxious but decided to give it a try. I’ve had four acupuncture treatments and am having fewer and fewer unsteady days and no vertigo episodes! The combination of acupuncture, chiropractic care and nutritional changes has made all the difference! Thank you Dr. Woolford, Lisa and the great team at Alliance!"
