Treatment Approach

Our treatment approach focuses on five major areas which are often at the root of most diseases and discomfort.

  • Tongue and Pulse Diagnosis: The ancient systems of Ayurveda and Chinese Medicine both use non-invasive techniques for diagnosis which the examination of the tongue and pulse. In addition, we employ traditional Western diagnostic standards of care, making for a more comprehensive/integrated approach as our system of diagnosis and treatment.

  • Restoring optimal digestive function: Both ancient wisdom and current research have shown that poor digestive health is linked to most diseases. Identifying, repairing, and preventing further organ damage helps restore optimal function.
  • Detoxification: Usually the critical component to any health recovery process, both intra cellular and extra cellular detoxification are important. Ayurvedic, Traditional Chinese, Homeopathic, nutritional and physical medicine methods are used for effective detoxification.

Treatment Modalities

There are many ways to heal and many available treatment approaches. We believe in the body’s power to heal itself and consider ourselves your coaches. We will offer you the medical model that you are most comfortable with; the brain is very powerful and you will not heal if you do not believe you will heal.

  • Western Medicine: The Western Pharmaceutical range is vast and powerful. Taken long term however, most Western medicine will create liver and kidney toxicity, mask the underlying root of a problem, and cause your body to become dependant. Some diseases are well modulated through the use of Western meds and we offer these as needed with individualized treatment plans which include other complementary treatment modalities designed to offset the possible side effects caused by medication.
  • Botanical medicine: Whole herbs, formulas, Tinctures and teas specially formulated to the needs of each patient. Organic high potency whole herbs are generally used to gain maximum benefits from the energetics of the whole plant along with its active constituents.
  • Homeopathy: A time tested energetic form of medicine, which rebalances the patient’s vital force and restores healthy functioning. Originally discovered over 200 years ago in Europe, hundreds of homeopathic remedies have since been developed. When a remedy can be matched perfectly to a person’s symptoms, personality and unique characteristics, a remarkable healing process takes place at all levels (physical, mental, emotional) that has been known to effect a complete cure of many debilitating diseases.
  • Therapeutic nutrition and cuisine adjustment: Using the principles of Ayurvedic medicine (a 5000 year old system of holistic healing from ancient India which is based on the recognition that each person has a unique constitution), cuisine adjustment and herbal supplementation can correct factors leading to chronic imbalances. Constitutional Ayurvedic assessment is done via questionnaires and interviews. Nutrient therapy via therapeutic doses of supplements further adjusts deficiencies found via nutritional assessments and laboratory tests.
  • Physical medicine: Hands on therapies that give pain relief, release muscle spasms, readjust neuro-muscular function and stimulate the immune system. Reikki, Constitutional Hydrotherapy, physiotherapy with ultrasound and electrical stimulation, Muscle energy stretching, Australian Bowen musculoskeletal technique, peat therapies are a few of the modalities used.
  • Diet and Lifestyle counseling: Designed with the patient’s needs, preferences and unique constitution in mind. Fern Life Center has a number of classes on cooking, yoga, breathing (pranayama), meditation, and sound. In addition, we offer workshops to deepen the education and integrate it into your life.
