Natural Medicine's Health Triangle: The Whole Body Approach

Dr. Asa's Natural Medicine Protocol® is a powerful and specialized system attempting to look at the whole person in an integrated approach to get to the root of the issue and balance your body's natural healing capabilities. Based on these findings, your physician will recommend an individualized care plan, which includes a discussion of our integrative approach to improve your present state of health and encourage future wellness. Throughout this process, our goal will be to help you take radical steps toward taking responsibility for your health. There are 3 sides to The Health Triangle.

• MENTAL:

The first is the Mental aspect of health, including our brain chemistry, our neurotransmitters, and the subconscious mind.

• CHEMICAL:

Secondly will be the Chemical aspect of health including all the body's physiological processes.

• STRUCTURAL:

Thirdly is the Structural aspect of health. Our bones, muscles, and nerves will be evaluated including all the Acupuncture Meridian pathways. This will help us create a baseline of looking at your entire body, determining where you currently are to where you need to be.

THE MENTAL EVALUATION:

Do You Want To Get Well? Dr. Asa's signature question to all of his patients.  It is crucial to understand the current state of your emotional wellness. Based on extensive research and our experience we realize that all physical illness has an emotional component. Unfortunately there has been little to no use of this fundamental truth by most conventional models of health care and medicine. Find out the key role of neurotransmitters, the subconscious mind, and the importance of attitude. Our emotions play a major role in who we are as individuals and affect our ability to address the challenges we face when looking to improve our health. Its important to utilize a specialized medical / wellness testing system grounded in solid science, which is used to screen for potential food allergies, biophysical stress, interference fields, emotional blocks, heavy metal toxicity, dental related problems, and environmental toxicity.

THE CHEMICAL EVALUATION: COMPREHENSIVE LABORATORY TESTING

As a benchmark of Natural Medicine ®, diagnostic bloodwork is the Gold Standard in evaluating body chemistry. THE ASA PANEL®, developed exclusively by Dr. Asa, is a 100 component testing panel to show how the entire body is working and how all bodily systems affect one another. It is one of the most extensive systems of testing in the country. Collecting fasting blood and urine samples should be part of most baseline assessments and if needed, you may need to be directed toward other highly specialized tests.

THE STRUCTURAL EVALUATION

Optimium health is always built on a great foundation. In Natural Medicine, you will gain a new perspective as to the true benefits of the foundation of your body. Natural Medicine always looks at proper range of motion and current level of physical activity. Natural Medicine also incorporates certified functional movement trainers® who coaching people on the benefits of Functional Movement relative to their abilities. Using the latest technology,  a comprehensive structural, orthopedic and neurological examination evaluating the current state or  bones, muscles, and nerves is thought to provide great information toward your foundation. The Structural aspect of health will assess a properly functioning nervous sytstem and evaluate all of the acupuncture meridian pathways.

ADDITIONAL DIAGNOSTIC TESTING

A deliberate focus with Natural Medicine® is taking time with each person to learn more about them and be able to assess where a person is in their health journey. Using extensive diagnostic tests to make certain that proper information is gathered regarding your health. Natural Medicine’s signature testing is for nutritional deficiencies using the blood. Diagnostic blood work has always been the Gold Standard of health care. Life is in the blood. Vibrant health is not attained by waiting on disease to find you but rather by you staying ahead of the game. For years physicians have been using comprehensive blood analysis to determine everything from cancer to heart disease to immune disorders, and the list goes on. Laboratory blood chemistry will help determine your current health status and the direction it is leading as well as any limiting factors that are keeping you from living in the optimal health you were designed to have. One of the best health insurance policies available in the world today, is learning exactly where you are in your health.

In addition to the extensive bloodwork, it will serve you well to utilize many of the leading diagnostic tests available and will therefore use the relevant findings to assess the current state of your health such as: EKG, Ultrasound, REE, Echo, MRI, CT, PET, DNX, Autonomic Nervous System test, Halter Monitor, Colonoscopy, Rhinoscopy, and Sleep Studies. Natural Medicine’s goal is to be the least invasive, yet the most comprehensive when it comes to looking at your specific health challenges.
