Dr. Susan Solomon's Practice Philosophy

Conventional Medicine focuses primarily on prescribing medications to heal the physical body.

Functional Medicine directs its aim at getting the physical body back to performing well by eliminating harmful foods, replacing harmful bacteria with healthy probiotics, and supporting the systems with the proper diet and nutritional supplementation.

Orthomolecular Medicine determines the correct dosage of supplements for the particular individual.

Energy Medicine removes blockages to energy flow in the physical body through the chakra and nadi system. Forms of energy medicine include reiki, acupuncture, acupressure and applied kinesiology.

Metaphysics is the connection between symptoms and the emotional and/or spiritual reason for that symptom.

Integrative Medicine takes in to account all of the above, but insists on addressing the relationship between the spiritual and the physical in order to attain wellness.

The Soul and its relationship to Creator/God/Universe is the connecting link without which the root cause of illness cannot be found. Most people know in their heart and soul what is ailing them and almost always they are right.

The link between the Soul and its expression in the physical body is the foundation for healing in Dr. Solomon's practice.

The experience of having had adrenal failure and adrenal fatigue and being able to fully recover without the use of conventional medication has allowed Dr. Solomon the wisdom and optimism to treat patients for whom the conventional medical system has failed. Chronic diseases are cured instead of managed. The body is an integrated whole - it must be treated as such. No symptom occurs in isolation. Rather than 'naming' a disease, it is far better to see the physiologic processes that connect all the dots. Instead of using band-aids, the root cause needs to be exposed and treated. The root cause lies in both physical and spiritual realms!

Healing takes time - an average of 1 month for every year of illness. It takes seven years to replace every cell in the body. However this timeline can be sped up greatly by the use of several forms of energy medicine - to both repair and replenish depleted physical systems, and remove deeply ingrained patterns of destructive thoughts and feelings that are made manifest in the cells of the body.

It is the goal of this practice to empower patients to heal themselves - all it takes is the motivation to get well.
