Our Approach
‘Innate’ is of itself. Healing happens innately. It does not come from some external source. It is the Life force within us and all living beings that allows us to grow, live, heal, and thrive.
‘Medicine’ derives from the Latin word medicina, the feminine derivative of medicinus meaning "the healing art." ‘Healing’ is a return to wholeness. The root meaning of ‘Doctor’ is to teach, to make known. At Innate Medicine we return to our ancient calling of teaching patients how to cultivate radiant health throughout their lives and embrace their own intrinsic healing capacity. We hold each patient uniquely in the context of the wholeness of their life and integrate contemporary and ancient medical knowledge with the deep wisdom of the body. We see symptoms as communication from the body-mind and guide patients toward deeper self-understanding and accountability for their own health and well-being.
We help our patients restore the full potency of their health and healing capacity by identifying and transforming key elements of disharmony and imbalance within their lives — often missed or ignored by contemporary medical paradigms — that obstruct the body’s ability to thrive. At Innate Medicine we harness the extraordinary capacity of the human body-mind to heal and thrive within safe and supportive conditions.
