We understand your plight and we're here to offer you a refreshing alternative. Welcome to Arizona Natural Health Center, an oasis of health and vitality nestled in Phoenix, Arizona.
A Broken Healthcare System
In the fast-paced and often uncaring world of the US healthcare system, many of us find ourselves struggling with conditions that are not effectively addressed by traditional methods. Conventional medicine focuses solely on managing symptoms without inquiring about the underlying root causes of illness. Symptoms are conflated with the disease. Our doctors are content to name the disease and medicate the symptom without stopping to ask the most important question of all, “Why?” Why are you fatigued? Why is your blood pressure or blood sugar high? Why is your thyroid gland not functioning properly?
When we receive the diagnosis and ask our doctor what is causing our symptoms, we are often told it’s our genes, which is akin to being told there is nothing we can do about it. Even worse is when we feel unwell and know something is not right, only to be told that nothing is wrong because our labs are “normal?” We know something is wrong. We can feel it! This is medical gaslighting, and it leaves us feeling disempowered, helpless, and devoid of hope.
A Healthy Alternative
At Arizona Natural Health Center we believe that true healing begins by validating what you are feeling, listening to what you have to say, and then investigating the root cause of your symptoms rather than rushing to medicate them. Our holistic and integrated approach aims to identify the environmental, lifestyle, and psychological factors that give rise to your symptoms and to empower you with the knowledge and tools that will allow you to restore your body’s natural balance, vitality, and resilience. Through our comprehensive programs, we tackle health challenges head-on, embracing seven core pillars that lay the foundation for optimal wellbeing.
Our 7 Pillars to Health and Vitality
1. Stress
Stress is implicated in nearly every chronic disease that we suffer from in the modern world. While all of us are familiar with the many types of psychological stress that are infused into modern life–relationships, finances, overworking, and overcommitment–few of us appreciate the broad variety of stressors we are exposed to on a regular basis. Viewing stress through the lens of human physiology, anything that increases our body’s demand for energy beyond what is currently available will result in the release of stress hormones. Inadequate nutrition, exposure to toxins, sleep loss, excessive exercise, and limiting or self-defeating beliefs are all sufficient to produce a stress response. We are so accustomed to swimming in this soup that we often have no idea of its true impact, much as fish have no idea that they live in water. Managing stress is crucial for promoting health and vitality. By implementing effective stress management strategies, and simultaneously addressing physiologic sources of stress, we empower you to reduce the negative impact of stress, resulting in increased energy, better sleep, enhanced immunity, greater mental clarity, positive mood, and an overall sense of calm and balance.
2. Mindset
Cultivating an empowered mindset is essential for achieving health and vitality. We work with you to develop a growth mindset that empowers you to rise to challenges, embrace change, and adopt healthy habits. By shifting limiting and disempowering thought patterns and fostering a belief in self, you can experience increased motivation, greater resilience, and a superior sense of wellbeing, leading to improved health outcomes and a greater sense of contentment.
3. Nutrition
Nutrition plays a fundamental role in health and vitality. In our experience food reigns supreme when it comes to human nutrition. While supplements have a role in optimizing your health, they do not possess the same power to alter human physiology as real food. We teach you to make informed food choices, emphasizing easy-to-digest, non-toxic, nutrient-dense foods that support healthy metabolism and optimal wellbeing. Learning to nourish yourself properly will put an end to hunger and cravings. By adopting a diet that is right for you, you will experience improved digestion, enhanced immunity, increased energy, brighter mood, greater mental clarity, healthy weight, and a reduced risk of chronic diseases.
4. Sleep & Circadian Rhythm
Sleep is essential for the body's repair and rejuvenation processes. Sleep must not only be of sufficient quantity and quality to be restorative, it must occur at the right time. Circadian rhythm refers to our body’s 24-hour cycles. The sleep-wake cycle is the most fundamental aspect of our circadian rhythm. Good sleep and a healthy circadian rhythm are essential for optimizing our health and increasing vitality. We teach you about the importance of proper sleep hygiene, devise strategies for restoring a healthy circadian rhythm, and address underlying sleep disorders. By prioritizing restful and rejuvenating sleep, you will experience increased energy, improved cognitive function, a more upbeat mood, enhanced immunity, and better overall health.
5. Movement & Exercise
Regular physical activity is essential for maintaining health and vitality. We help patients find enjoyable and sustainable forms of exercise that suit their individual preferences and goals. By incorporating movement into their daily routine, patients can experience improved cardiovascular health, increased strength and flexibility, enhanced mood, better stress management, and a higher overall quality of life.
6. Environment
Our bodies continuously respond and adapt to the physical environment. The more challenging the environment, the harder our body has to work and the more energy it has to expend to maintain healthy function. From the perspective of evolutionary biology, chronic diseases are the result of a mismatch between our paleolithic genes and the modern environment. In addition to changes in our diets, movement patterns, sleep habits, and stress levels, we are exposed to a wide variety of environmental toxins. More than 80,000 chemicals are registered in the U.S., most of which have never been fully tested for safety. According to recent studies, nearly all of us have measurable levels of microplastics, PFAS chemicals, and pesticides, all of which are toxic at extremely low levels. Add to this the fact that most Americans spend 90% of their time indoors and it is no surprise that most of us are deficient in sunlight, a nutrient vital for not only vitamin D but cellular energy production. We teach you how to reduce your toxin exposure, get adequate sunlight safely, and create a harmonious and nurturing environment that is better suited to your biology. By upgrading your physical environment, you will experience improved physical health, increased energy, enhanced immunity, reduced stress levels, and a greater sense of wellbeing.
7. Social Connection
Building meaningful relationships and fostering social connections are vital for overall well-being. We encourage patients to engage in social activities, connect with supportive communities, and cultivate healthy relationships. By nurturing social connections, patients can experience improved mental and emotional well-being, reduced stress levels, enhanced self-esteem, and a sense of belonging, all of which contribute to their overall health and vitality.
