Body
& Me
naturopathic services
Hi, my name is Dr. Danielle Essel ND, creator of Body & Me.
There are many approaches to health and well-being, and this is mine: We all enter this world whole. Somewhere along the way, Body and Spirit struggle to connect, and in that space pathologies are born.
Body & Me is a naturopathic approach to heal the physical Body, heal the person inside it, and encourage the innate connection between them.
By doing so, we resolve the root cause of pathology and prevent future outbreaks.
What Does Working Together Look Like?
I will carefully listen to your full health history, and may conduct a physical exam.
We will discuss relevant lab tests that will give us in-depth insight.
An initial individualized health plan will be made, tailored to your specific needs and comfort level.
Recurring meetings allow for a deeper exploration of your health.
Acupuncture or hydrotherapy may be used in sessions to aid and promote healing
Reviewing lab results and general progress will allow for further individualized recommendations.
Our body often reveals a few symptoms at a time. Healing one system often means uncovering another system that needs help.
Together we re-establish new health goals and work to resolve them naturally.
