As I thought about the year I realized the number of younger patients I was working with had increased by 25%. I was well aware of the research presented by Stephanie Seneff Senior Research scientist at MIT suggesting that by 2025 half of all children will be autistic.

At first I was reluctant to accept younger patients because of the issues of compliancy, comprehension and anxiety levels.  It was my own 13 year old grandson that helped me most.  Once we identified his gluten sensitivity and he began to make the sometimes difficult changes and accepted his new way of eating– the changes for him were so dramatic–he became excited and even more committed.

 I realized it is sometimes more the parents who are most reluctant to make the changes because of the demand it can have on how other family members enjoy and prepare their food.  My grandson taught me young people have an innate trust in their internal compass they use to navigate their personal choices and are often un-waivering once they know "this is the right" step for them.

The other noticeable shift in our practice was the level and intensity of the emotional work we were called to do.  It was clear patients of all ages and different levels of awareness were awakening to the idea that healing emotional wounds, trauma, self image and relationship issues were essential for optimal levels of health and wellness.  Using tools like Applied Psycho Neurobiology and "Tap n Tell" we guided many to identify and resolve hidden wounds of anger, rejection, loss, low self image and lack of self love.

Due to the strong response and release of "Heal Hashimoto’s: Start with the Gut" we attracted many with undiagnosed, untreated and mistreated thyroid conditions.  We served them through a very successful  "14 Day Heal Your Gut Challenge"and patient’s moods, minds and guts  improved.

Patients struggling with infertility issues suddenly found themselves pregnant after we identified, treated and cleared H-Pylori and other chronic infections.

Why am I sharing this?

For the past 30 years I have had the privilege of a front row seat to the health challenges and solutions found when we embrace health from a perspective beyond the conventional approach and incorporate the best of ancient medicine and cutting edge technology like PEMF and the healing potential found in sound, color and light. 

Having the 5 levels of health & healing model as our guide as been invaluable.  Each patient is assessed not only by their personal biochemistry, but also by their mental, energetic and higher levels of consciousness.  We help individuals identify their unexpressed healing essence waiting to be tapped and expressed.  This is available to each and every one of us.

After reflecting on where we were in our practice (which is often a reflection of me) I felt challenged by how we would respond to the ever changing demands of the health challenges we were seeing.  Neurological disease is now on the move to replace both cancer and heart disease as the top cause of death. Here Dr. Klinghardt explains the increase in neurological disease having it’s roots in chronic underlying infections and the immune system’s response to the infections. The same is true for Autoimmune diseases.  

Moving forward I asked myself.  Will you "retreat" or "reachout…"  Will you "isolate or build community?"….will you live from a place of "me…or we?"   We each have to decide for ourself "who are we willing to be in the face of inevitable change?"

You choose whether the events taking place on a personal and global scale will inspire you to step up or step out.  Once I reflected on my "why" I saw the only choice for me was to Step up.  I believe we each have a very meaningful and important role to play in the unfolding of humanity.  We need you.  We need your light.  We need your voice.  We need your gifts.

 Are you in…or are your out?

Health Hacks 2017

Guided by the 5 Levels of Health & Healing model contemporized by Dietrich Klinghardt, M.D. pH.D and adapted by raSa health, each patient is assessed not only by their personal biochemistry, but their mental, energetic and higher levels of consciousness.  We help individuals identify, activate and engage their own healing essence.

Physical Level

This level happens over time and is governed by the natural laws that govern five senses.  This is the level most conventional practitioners focus on and treat.

 Hack your Biochemistry

Having been trained in Functional biochemistry we offer every patient an in-depth analysis of their lab work that provides one piece of the sometimes complex puzzle.  It helps to identify areas of imbalance, weakness and dis-ease.  We include biomarkers not conventionally included in most doctor’s offices that allow us to identify trends before they develop into more serious conditions.

 Our motto is early "prevention"…not early "detection."  For a close- up look of this testing and report click here  The "standard" of care by which most practitioners are guided is decided by insurance companies and other regulating agencies.  The "range" that is considered acceptable by most laboratories is based on a population of pathological patients and not on patients with optimal health.  The top hack at this level is working with a practitioner that will order the correct labs and translate them into useful and guided protocals to help you achieve your goals.

 Hack your Microbiome

There are several microbiomes in our bodies including the gut, lungs, sinus, throat and mouth.  Did you know our gut draws from over 90 different bacterial strains to synthesize life enhancing vitamins and other nutrients as well as generate neurotransmitters and neuromodulators. This new understanding demands we shift our focus from "killing & conquering" bugs to living more symbiotically and supporting this community of microbes an rich internal ecosystem. 

I find it fascinating how our internal world is really a microcosm of the outer challenges we face as a nation enmeshed in a debate of building walls or building bridges. Build community or isolate.  Kill or be killed.  I write about this in my book Heal Hashimoto’s: Start with the Gut in the chapter "Gut Bless You."

Energy Level

Yes! Virginia there is an "energy" body.  

This is how brain waves and EKG’s and EEG’s are recorded.  Did you know the heart emits a powerful rhythmic electromagnetic field which can be detected several feet away.  This field acts like a magnet attracting experiences, events and healing potential

The top concern of most patients we serve is pain followed closely by fatigue.  Think of your energy body like a savings account.  Are you making deposits or more withdrawals?

Withdrawals can include:

Stress

Poor diet

Food sensitivities

Digital overload

Lack of restful sleep

Lack of exercise

Medications

Unresolved psycho-emotional

Lack of community

Deposits/Energy Hacks 

Identifying food intolerances and food sensitivities.  This can bring about the most noticeable changes for many patient symptoms.  Often we are eating "good" foods but they are not necessarily the "right" foods.  There are many lab tests available including blood and saliva but the most accurate testing has been with Autonomic Response Testing as developed by Dietrich Klinghardt, M.D., pH.D.  We have the patient bring in the most common foods and beverages and test them directly.  Once we remove the top offenders inflammation reduces, anxiety resolves and weight, gut and mood issues improve.

Turning off the wi-fi at night and removing all cordless phones.

Identifying and correcting sleep stealers.  Room needs to be dark with no blue light.

Detox a little everyday….ionic foot bath, sauna, chlorella, coffee enemas, drainage remedies, clay baths, intermittent fasting, healing broths, remove your amalgams and laugh- out- loud til you cry

Identify the side effects of every medication you are on and ask about more natural solutions with minimal side affects.

Find your exercise style.  It’s different for each of us.  Our bodies are designed to move.  Current lifestyles including now the most popular gadget sold on Amazon the "echo" has replaced our need to get up and move to change the channel, shop for a gift, answer the phone or turn off the lights.  We MUST include body movement as part of our daily routine.  Find your style and embrace it.

Spend time in nature.  Still scores incredibly high in the deposit side of the checkbook.  15 minutes of early morning, late afternoon sun exposure can help to reset and restore the body’s internal biological set points that depend on color, wavelength and light.

Reintroduce the Clothesline

As a child, every Saturday, Mom would hang the sheets and after a bath and a movie I would climb into the fresh, crisp smelling linens.  I have a neighbor who uses the clothesline as an opportunity to pray for each family member as she places their clothes on the line and offers gratitude for the Sun’s abundant gifts.  Nowadays many are relying on synthetic and often carcinogenic chemicals with seductive names like "Ocean Breeze" and Baby’s Breath".  Choose the real deal. UV light provided by the sun is a natural disinfectant and whitener.  The UV from the sun interferes with the reproduction cycle of bacteria by damaging their DNA.  Sometimes it feels like clothes capture the energy from the sun and release it’s healing to you all night long.  Caution: Your neighbors will ask if your dryer is broke

Community – Find and serve your community.  This may be family, friends or like-minded souls you share a common passion with.  Take the cue from nature.  Nature colonizes.  Nature communes.  Nature lives and expresses for the greater good of all…

 Mental Level.  We experience this level through our beliefs, attitudes and thoughts

Mental Hack

3 most frequently found self-limiting beliefs when dealing with the patient’s unconscious mind.

I am safe. 

I am loved. 

I am worthy.

 Scientific American January 2014 had an excellent article on how our unconscious mind exerts a profound influence shaping decisions, molding behaviors and running our lives.

Using Autonomic Response Testing we are able to identify and correct these programming patterns.  Patients experience profound shifts.  Recently I was working with a young Mom who had set the intention to deliver her 3rd child by V-birth.  The challenge was her first two pregnancies resulted in c-sections.  Using ART we discovered her intention was being sabotaged by an early "hidden" trauma where a family trip was quickly aborted to Italy because of her developing Measles.  As a result the client had a noticeable pattern of "unusual stress and disappointment" when plans where quickly changed or aborted.  As a result she often overed crossed her "t’s" and dotted her "I’s to ensure plans were carried out as agreed upon.  This resulted in high stress and continuous disappointment.  Once we uncoupled her emotions and reset her nervous system and body memory she was truly free to align her intention and her attention in a way that supported her personal goal and highest good. 

4th/5th Level

Awareness/Consciousness

Awareness/Consciousness Hacks

Step one is to begin to become aware of yourself.  Study the above graphic created by Deepak Chopra.  Ask yourself which level of awareness are you hanging out in?

 The word responsibility contains within it the very meaning of responsibility.  The "ability" to "respond."  Not the ability to react.  There is a difference.  When we come from a place of responding it usually emerges from a place of mindfulness and inner guidance.  When we are "reacting" we are simply marrionettes with knee jerk reactions triggering early childhood wounds, beliefs and unhealed trauma.

Hacks at this levels:

Heartmath is a science and solution based technology ideal for individuals, families and corporations.

 They offer courses, tools and products that can be incorporated into every lifestyle for every age to build greater coherence.  Coherence is also something we evaluate in every patient using Autonomic Response Testing.  Coherence refers to order, connection, wholeness.  Blending physics and neuro-science, Autonomic Response Testing is an excellent tool for assessing and correcting coherence in the BioField.  In ancient systems of healing such as Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayruveda the model reflects the understanding that the biofield is an interface between the environment and physical body.  The model reflects that dis-ease begins at this level and then manifests in the physical body.  Having this understanding allows a skilled practitioner to intercept dis-ease before it is recognized at the physical level and recorded as tissue changes such as tumor, cancer, cyst etc.

Closing Thoughts —-It is much easier to deal with change, conflict, chaos, opportunity and uncertainly when we feel strong and healthy.  Each moment we choose. Health is not something to take for granted.  It requires time, attention and intention.  It is much more challenging to recover from a dis-ease than to prevent the dis-ease in the first place.  Things happen.  We do get sick.  The body can respond.  Build your armamentarium.  Be proactive.  Prepare.

Events will continue in 2017 that can be both shocking and destabilizing as well as ground breaking and revolutionary.  Being flexible and adaptable will carry us a long way.  In order to do this we must be anchored in a reality based in health, vitality and personal truth. This will require deep personal work to identify beliefs, thoughts and behaviors that no longer serve us and the willingness to move beyond them. 

Richard Horowitz, M.D. did chronic Lyme sufferers a huge favor when he not only appeared on the Katie Show to announce to the world his understanding of Chronic Lyme Disease which he calls (MCIDS – Multiple Chronic Infection Disease Syndrome), he  also wrote a book , “Why Can’t I Get Better?”

According to Dr. Horowitz …"This is  a very comprehensive overview of Lyme and Tick Borne disorders with a map which can be applied to all chronic diseases.  Nothing has ever been done in this scope and breadth.  It should really help patients and doctors have a deeper understanding of the disease and how to get patients better. "  He  writes M.D. stands for "Medical Detective," and it has been this unrelentlng desire to uncover the hidden cause of disease which has helped him succeed.

Now Dr. Horowitz has the listening ear and attention of chronic sufferers and health care practitioners around the world. 

I have been a Lyme sufferer.  I have written about my experiences before but I also see patients everyday who have fallen between the cracks,  been misdiagnosed, undiagnosed or whose prior treatments have provided little relief or even worse have left them penniless and without answers. 

Did you notice the name of this post?  “Why CAN I Get Better?”  Sometimes a small shift in perception can open an entire new landscape of possibility and potential than we had accessed even a a second ago.  Let me use one of Dr. Klinghardt’s favorite allegories to explain.

A drunk loses the keys to his house and is looking for them under a lamppost. A policeman comes over and asks what he’s doing.

“I’m looking for my keys” he says. “I lost them over there”.

The policeman looks puzzled. “Then why are you looking for them all the way over here?”

“Because the light is so much better”.

We all look for things where the light is better, rather than where we’re more likely to find them. In words of Anais Nin, “we don’t see things as they are. We see things as we are”.

A friend wrote, "If this is true – and, who am I kidding? of course it is – I worry that we all stagger around, destined to be misunderstood. Or, worse. We’re all methodically, apocalyptically misunderstood, and it’s too dark to notice."

 Perhaps we are all looking for the cure where the light is.  And where is that light?  It is shining on the science of chemistry, the labs, the symptoms, the diagnosis and care plan treatments the medical doctors were required to know and are often insisted to incorporate by the insurance companies who are paying the bill.  So, what are they taught….for starters

Biochemistry but not Quantum Physics.

Anatomy but not Subtle Anatomy

Surgery but not Psychic Surgery

Pharmaceuticals but not Nutraceuticals.

Isolated organs but not organ meridian Systems

Genes but not Epigenetics

Orthopedics but  not how to interpret the tongue, nails, or pulse

Muscles but not Miasms

Food but not whole food

Cavities but not Cavitations 

 Do you get the picture? 

Dr. Horowitz expanded this model by devoting an entire  chapter to Meditation and Mind Training as well as providing a 16 point check list that includes:  Immune dysfunction,  Inflammation, Environmental toxins,  Functional medicine abnormalities with nutritional deficiencies, Mitochondrial dysfunction,  Endocrine abnormalities,  Neurodegenerative disorders,  Neuropsychiatric disorders, Sleep disorders,  Autonomic Nervous System Dysfunction and Allergies. 

Kudos to Dr.  Horowitz.  Yet,  even Dr. Horowitz is only looking for the keys where the light has been turned on.

Quantum Physics

Let me introduce you to a perspective of health and healing where the light is still quite dim yet amazingly bright for those who are willing to see it?  Are you the type that "believes" only after you have seen it or are you the type that knows sometimes you have to “Believe” before you see it.

 Quantum physics is a branch of science that deals with discrete, indivisible units of energy called quanta.   With the discovery of Quantum physics,  our understanding of the world has changed considerably.  Prior to its discovery,  it was thought that matter was solid and rigid.  Quantum Physics has shown us that all matter is made of the same materials and it is the vibration, tone and coherence of these particles that gives matter all of its properties.  This includes you and me.

 Today’s scientists not only view the body as a physical structure, but also as an energetic system.  This understanding is revolutionizing the health care system and our ability to heal and be well.  While at a glance this may seem like just another strange theory,  it contains many clues as to the fundamental nature of the universe and may be more important then even relativity in the grand scheme of things.  Furthermore, it describes the nature of the universe as being much different then the world we see.  As Niels Bohr said, "Anyone who is not shocked by quantum theory has not understood it."

"Dr. Amit Goswami as usual has the most brilliant insights into how consciousness conceives, governs, constructs, and becomes biology." – Deepak Chopra

Dietrich Klinghardt, M.D. Ph.d  has a unique perspective on health and how we heal because he is trained and practices in both Germany and the United States.  He remarked that  his German patients don’t want “more tests” and “drugs” they want more energy based solutions and frequency based medicine.  His U.S. patients demand a diagnosis and treatment based on their Biochemistry and Biology.

Which model is correct?

They both are.

It’s time to shine the light on the wholeness of humanity not only as it relates to humankind but to Everykind.  The animals,  the plants, elements, solar system and multi-verse.  After all don’t we say as above so below?  We live in a multi-verse not  a Universe–our body comprises multiple systems not just one.  We have a spleen and a liver but we also have consciousness and a Bio-field.

Take a look at this chart which shows an example of how a few systems are inter-related.  .  As a Chiropractor,  if I find a patient who continually presents with a subluxation at T9/T10,  I will also check Liver/Gall Bladder function as well as any dental contribution at Tooth #6.  Using ARTesting we can determine if the tooth is contributing to the subluxation /Gall Bladder dysfunction or the other way around.

The Quantum practitioner is aware of:

Bi-directional  forces of nature and human beings

Living, structured  water and molecular hydration

Patterns, shapes,  colors & sacred geometry

Frequencies,  light,  sound & music and chanting

The biofield and the information stored therein

Resonance, coherence and wave function

Planets, solar flares,  Electro-magnetic fields, Geopathics, and their impact on humans and our impact on them

Interrelationship of teeth, organs, muscles, emotion, nutrition, vertebra and more

The meridian system and chakra system

Cellular function based on voltage, sound, light and raw materials

Patients in our office are assessed using both models.  We apply the science of logic, reasoning, lab reports, diagnostics and technology but we also value intuition, spiritual concepts, quantum physics and the frequency of love which is nature’s inherent healer.

 Geneticists report that 25% of our genes are hard wired. 75% are not. Epigenetically speaking then, diseases of civilization spring mostly from inner and external environmental "obstacles to cure" matrices - colds to cancers – mycoplasmas to miasms- prions to parasites- Lyme to ley lines – ground matrix to geopathic stress - hormones to hormesis etc.

How does a health practitioner begin to unwind the complexities and layers for the patient entrusted in their care?

If one is only skilled in MTHFR–then everything will look like it’s an MTHFR issues, if one is only skilled in Adrenal Health…then everything will look like an Adrenal issue.  If one is only skilled in Gastrointestinal dysfunction then everything will look like a Gut issues.  Get the point? 

At raSa health we are skilled in using Autonomic Response Testing which applies the principles of Quantum Physics and has proven to be the most accurate form of muscle testing used to determine what an individual needs at any point in time in order to restore balance to the system.

.

In the hands of a skilled practitioner, ARTesting can determine where, how and why the Autonomic Nervous System is BLOCKED and what it will take to return it to proper flow.  We also use it to determine the proper nutrients the body needs and prioritize the underlying issues that are stressing the body.

Health and healing is never a “one size fits all” approach.  For one patient, the choice of chemotherapy and surgery may be the best choice.  For another that may not be an option. 

If you are seeking a model that embraces the whole system and not only the parts, you may find the answers you seek at raSa health. 

A branch of medicine that recognizes this is known as Anthroposophical medicine.   Anthroposophic Medicine (Anthropos=human being: Sophia=Wisdom.  Health is a result of a harmonious relationship between all systems.  This is partnered health care.  It is not the result of someone with a white coat writing a prescription.  It is the result of partnering with a practitioner that beholds the truth of your being even when you do not know it for yourself.  This model requires communication, commitment, inner work, discipline and a willingness to experience joy, divinity and health.

Why CAN I Get Better?  Because we come with a divine blueprint that recognizes we are more than our biochemistry.  Until we shine the light on the intrinisic principles of our very nature we will continue to chase the bugs, destroy our environment and pollute our own bodies.

Why CAN I Get Better? because you are better. Embrace the fullness of your divine blueprint and you will soar to a new level of health you may have never been told is possible.

I can tell you it is.  I see it everyday in different ways.  If it happens for others,  it can happen for you.

If you have found yourself reading this and saying, yes, yes, that makes some sense to me.  Come on in and let’s shine the light on all the underlying issues that may be contributing to the process.  What I love most about this work?  The testing is so sensitive we detect imbalances BEFORE they become pathology.  We don’t wait for the car engine to fail before we bring it in for service….Doesn’t your body deserve the same care?  

"We do not think ourselves into a new way of living, we live ourselves into a new way of thinking." – Richard Rohr

This is a question I am often asked. Having a diagnosis of Lyme myself I have given this a lot of thought. Cancer is said to be “cured” if a patient remains asymptomatic for a period of 5 years.  Does  asymptomatic equal cured?  What is cured? 

With my own diagnosis my goal is to focus on feeling well and living well.  I don’t really think about finding a cure for Lyme as much as I think about finding my wellness point. Two  thoughts cannot occupy the same space at the same time.  If you have the thought “ I have Lyme,” you cannot at the same time be thinking, “I am well.”

At raSa health I have patients who come in with diagnoses of everything from Thyroid disease to Cancer and Lyme disease to headaches.  I do not treat the diagnosis.  I do treat the person who has the diagnosis. In fact, I treat the wholeness of that person.  In the 5 levels of health and healing model adapted from Dietrich Klinghardt, M.D., I recognize my patients are much more than their physical bodies.  They also have an energy body, a mental body, an informational body and consciousness.

When I care for a patient with a diagnosis of Lyme disease, I treat beyond the symptoms.  I treat the system. Lyme disease is no longer one infection. Richard Horowitz, M.D. renamed Lyme disease “MCIDS.  Multiple Chronic Infection Disease Syndrome.  There are multiple layers to Lyme disease and there is no one herb, antibiotic, tincture or remedy that can address each and every one of them.

A common thread I see in those of us with a Lyme diagnosis is we have multiple issues on multiple levels to varying degrees.  Each patient must be addressed according to their uniqueness.  The healing comes when we can identify the level the original wound appeared and begin the unwinding through each of the levels affected.  This is different for each of us.  Lyme is not “cured” by an antibiotic.  The symptoms may be reduced but the Lyme Disease is NOT cured.  Just like cutting off a cancerous breast doesn’t cure the cancer or if you abandon a child doesn’t mean you are not a parent.

The cure is a process.  A journey of life itself. The cure is not found on the highways or the freeways of life…but more likely to be found in the ditch or the pothole.  Those patients who are willing to look at the potholes and get down under their own hood and assess the damage, the corrosion, the rust, and dents are the ones who often “find the cure.”

Killing bugs doesn’t create a cure anymore than war brings about peace or darkness brings about light. There are several steps in our approach to caring for a patient with a diagnosis of Lyme disease.

Step 1

Accept that Lyme or whatever diagnosis has come into your life is there for a reason.  It is a messenger.  We never benefit from killing the messenger.

Step 2

Recognize that Lyme may not be only affecting your biochemistry and physiology but also your energy body, your mental body, your informational body and your consciousness.

Step 3

Be willing to look under the hood.  Assess the damage. Ask the tough questions.  Where in my life is there a wounding that is asking to be healed.  Where in my life does resentment need to be replaced with forgiveness or  worry and control asking to be replaced with faith and surrender.

Step 4

Get a plan.  Just like you would get an estimate to have your auto repaired we need an estimate and a plan to return to our wholeness. 

Step 5

Ask yourself does my plan include:

Immune modulators

Anti-microbials

Repairing the biochemistry

Rebuilding the physiology

Detoxing  and unloading the system

Removing and mitigating the offending electro-magnetic, dirty electricity and geopathic stressors

Healing the trauma

Is there a cure for Lyme disease?  This is how the dictionary defines “cure.”

n.

1. Restoration of health; recovery from disease.

2. A method or course of medical treatment used to restore health.

3. An agent, such as a drug, that restores health; a remedy.

4. Something that corrects or relieves a harmful or disturbing situation: The cats proved to be a good cure for our mouse problem.

5. Ecclesiastical Spiritual charge or care, as of a priest for a congregation.

In my 10 years of working with patients who have a diagnosis of Lyme disease, the difference between those who were “cured” and those that weren’t is listed here.  Those who

1. Had the ability to embrace the idea that recovery was possible,
2. Followed a course of treatment,
3. Corrected their harmful or disturbing situations and
4. Found their spiritual charge.

Is there a cure for Lyme disease is not the question I would ask. Instead, Is there a cure for a broken heart? A wounded human being? A confused physiology? Yes! Yes! Yes! There is a cure. There is a cure for all human beings because we are not human beings but spirits being human.  And spirit has only one cure.

The cure is always Love.

  An alternative view is that the koshas emerge from the highest vibratory or spiritual state, or the blissful level, and then shift toward the most material level.  While the energies shift from subtle to material, the material then climbs again to subtle.  Thus, the koshas can be viewed as constantly operating on both a microcosmic and macrocosmic level.   In our model, the 5 levels also shift one to the other, interdependent, each influencing the other.  You might say we began as “consciousness” or spirit and was then birthed into the physical only to return to consciousness.  Others believe we began as physical and are meant to return to the spiritual. (spirit.)  It’s safe to say….no one knows for sure.  There are many mysteries yet to be fully understood on each of these levels.  For me, that is part of the wonder.  

• Have you been diagnosed with an Autoimmune Disease?
• Do you suspect you may have a Thyroid disorder?
• Are you frustrated by the current options for health that seem to focus on drugs and surgery?
• Do you want to find the root cause of your symptoms?
• Do you find yourself thinking…"If there’s nothing wrong, why do I feel so bad?"

At raSahealth, "our passion is health because your passion is living!"

Imagine this…

• A Doctor that listens
• A Doctor who embraces a Functional and Holistic approach
• A Doctor who brings 25+ years of experience to every patient she treats
• A health care experience that embraces the body, mind & spirit

Health means more than taking a multi-vitamin and eating 3-squares a day.

There was a time when this was a sufficient plan.  Not anymore.  Due to the insults to our water, food supply, soil and daily toxic exposures nearly  everyone can benefit from daily detox and mineral support.  Holistic health focuses on the system and not the symptoms.  I became a Chiropractor because having an "adjustment" always made me feel better.  My chiropractor was knowledgeable about fitness, nutrition and wellness.  Tools like Applied Kinesiology and Autonomic Response Testing help our patients uncover hidden dis-ease patterns. They also identify the proper nutrition, optimize detoxification pathways and address methylation issues, as well as identify food allergies and integrate wellness and lifestyle strategies that are customized for their unique needs

Imagine a doctor who really listens.

Imagine working with a practitioner who combines the best of: Chiropractic, Biological, Bio-energetic and Functional Medicine

Red Bank, NJ

  Success Stories - L. Roberts (female, 37)  

I came to Dr. Rasa through a friend I met in Pilate’s class.  I felt as though my thyroid was swollen and I just couldn’t loose weight even though I was running, doing pilates and following a whole foods diet.  My Doctors said, "your lab tests are normal."  Then Dr. Rasa ran a comprehensive profile and we discovered I had an autoimmune disease called "Hashimoto’s."  It took a while to help me balance my thyroid through detoxification other lifestyle changes and I learned I needed to talk about the things I was holding inside.  She also helped me find my “gratitude” I had misplaced a long time ago.

- O. Connally (female, 36)

When the doctor’s kept telling me my blood work is “normal”…my blood pressure is” fine,” I knew I needed another way.  Their suggestion for anti-depressants was not an option.  Using Autonomic Response Testing, Dr. Rasa found I had a root canal which harbored an infection and was responsible for the many UTI’s and bladder infections I had throughout the last few years.  She referred me to Dr. Oras and together they helped me get better.  I haven’t had a urinary tract infection in 4 years!

- B. Brooks (female, 52)  

I was being treated by a physician for lyme disease and several coinfections but I still felt pretty miserable.  I decided to compliment what I was doing by using alternative therapies. I learned about the work of Dietrich Klinghardt, and found that Dr. Rasa studies with Dr. K and offers many of his protocols.  I have been working with Dr. Rasa for the past year and I feel like I can think again, the brain fog has lifted, I am able to work and I have hope I will get well again.  Thank you Dr. Klinghardt & Dr. Rasa!

- G. Pierson (female, 46)

I think I would be dead if I didn’t find Dr. Rasa one year ago.  I was 100 lbs overweight, and suffering with chronic fatigue, a mouth full of mercury and a body full of toxins from years spent at racetracks breathing in the exhaust fumes.  I told her she was my last hope, the last doctor I would try to get help from.  I was tired of being alive and I didn’t know where to turn.  She changed my diet, all of my personal care products and she helped me detoxify slowly.  When she told me about family constellation…I thought that was the last thing I would ever do.  I’m so glad I did. Now I am living again, I want to fall in love and have a family.

- K. Robillo (male, 36)

I’ve been seeing Dr. Rasa for 8 years.  As a teacher, I stand on my feet for hours each day and have a long history of back pain.  I fell off my horse several times throughout my life and didn’t want to stop riding but I also didn’t want to be in pain all the time.  I go for chiropractic and cranio-sacral treatments twice a month with Dr. Rasa and I’m able to keep riding and stay away from pain pills.  Dr. Rasa is always there for me.  She has seen me on her days off and even came to my home to treat me.  I bring my whole family to her and I trust her most of all.

-P. Conte (male, 41)

My game is golf and running.  My style is fast & competitive.  I hate going to any doctor and then I met Dr. Sharon after I tripped and strained my hamstring and glutes so bad I couldn’t sit for longer than 5 minutes.  I had a tournament in 4 days and I was really upset. 1st visit for the Sports & Spine Spa package and I was 80% better.  2nd visit. 100% gone.  I not only participated in the tournament I placed better than my previous game.  If you are looking for something that works…you have to do this!

D. Rubin (male 39)

I had two root canals extracted and was disturbed to see the amount of infection that has been residing in my mouth for at least 8 years (coincidentally, the same amount of time I have been experiencing lyme symptoms).  I wanted to express my gratitude to you because if you hadn’t ART tested both as blocked, who knows how long they would have stayed in my mouth.  Today I am grateful, lighter, and so much better mentally than I have been in nearly 2  years.
