Family Medicine / Preventative Care

We address all non-emergent acute and chronic health concerns and treat patients of all ages.  Dr. Margaret provides regular annual exams, physicals for sports, camp and commercial drivers licenses, screening lab tests, well child visits, and more.  X-rays and other imaging tests can be ordered as needed.  

 

Herbal, Nutritional and Lifestyle Recommendations

From food allergy testing to therapeutic diets, using food as medicine gives you a strong foundation for lasting health and excellent quality of life.  Properly dosed botanical medicines, vitamins and nutrients often prevent the need for prescription drugs.   Exercise programs, motivational counseling, sleep hygiene and healthy habits are common lifestyle prescriptions from Dr. Margaret.

​

Craniosacral Therapy

This relaxing, gentle, hands-on therapy effortlessly eases pain and stress.  The craniosacral system includes the brain, spine and bones of the head.  By tuning in to the gentle cerebrospinal rhythm of the body, self healing and deeper insight occurs. Any chronic pain condition, migraines and other headaches, head injuries, TMJ and muscle tension can be released using this bodywork technique.  It is extremely helpful for stress relief, PTSD and anxiety.

​

Homeopathy

Very diluted doses of animal, vegetable or mineral substances are used to stimulate the self healing mechanisms of the body.  Any health issue can be treated with a homeopathic remedy.  They are easy to use, inexpensive and very safe.  Children respond particularly well to homeopathy.  If indicated, you will receive a free homeopathic remedy as part of your visit.
