The conventional approach to chronic and autoimmune disease isn't enough for everyone. If you're feeling frustrated with the care you've received, are looking for answers, and want to start actually healing, the Monroe Center for Integrative Health may be able to help you.
When you have a chronic or autoimmune disease, navigating the healthcare system shouldn't feel like you're inside of a pinball machine. You shouldn't feel dismissed, discouraged, and disgusted by those taking care of you. You shouldn't have to figure things out on your own or be given a pamphlet and told "good luck!" on your way out the door.
You don't heal during an 18-minute doctor's appointment. But you can heal when your body has the conditions, support, care, and environment it needs to thrive. We use functional nutrition, integrative health, and natural wellness approaches to enable your body with its natural ability to heal, grow, and recover.
You're not just a patient identification number; you're a human being that deserves respect and care. Our approach to care is compassionate, inclusive, trauma-informed.
Your health is uniquely shaped by your life experiences, events, and exposures. That's why we don't believe in one-size-fits-all or cookie-cutter strategies.
No one will ever understand your body as well as you do. As one of our patients, your insight and consent matter. We'll always listen to you and believe your story.
