Directory of Services
As health-care costs go up, so is the interest in alternative treatments. And Holistic Care Approach is setting the standard. We offer several options meant to supplement traditional medical care—and get you on the path to healthy living. Please check the sublinks in the right sidebar to get a full description of a particular type of service. On this page, we give a brief overview of our types of service.
• ACUPUNCTURE
Our two licensed acupuncturists can treat many kinds of acute and chronic health conditions, as well as provide preventive care. Muscle and joint issues, digestive difficulties, allergies, headaches, skin problems, addictions, and emotional issues like anxiety and depression can all be treated effectively with acupuncture.
We use single-use disposable needles for our treatments—or you can get the benefits of acupuncture without the needles. Either way, your treatment is meant to stimulate your body’s own natural healing process. Sometimes Chinese herbal supplements are recommended as part of your healing program.
• NATUROPATHIC MEDICINE
Our naturopathic doctor specializes in using nutrition, herbs, traditional Chinese medicine, counseling, and acupuncture to treat patients with chronic and acute diseases. We treat the whole person so that you can find balance between mind, body, and spirit.
Many illnesses have a connection to one or more allergies. Our doctor uses NAET to diagnose and treat allergies—a system of allopathy, acupuncture, chiropractic, kinesiology, and nutrition. You’ll get coaching on how to make changes in your eating and exercise habits.
• CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY
This is a treatment that uses a light touch to regulate the flow of spinal fluid. This relaxes the nervous system and brings a state of balance to the head and spinal tissues.
Craniosacral treatments are beneficial to anyone, of any age—including newborns. During the birthing process, the baby’s head and spine can experience pressure that can disrupt the regular flow of spinal fluid. This can lead to problems with sleeping, feeding, sucking—even colic. A simple 15-20 minute session with our highly trained therapist can prevent these problems and get your baby’s life started with a relaxed and balanced nervous system.
• HYPNOTHERAPY
Patches, pills, diets, sleeping pills—think you’ve tried everything to break a bad habit? Hypnotherapy may be the answer you’ve been looking for. Our professional hypnotherapist can help you re-order your thinking about whatever you’re struggling with—smoking, unhealthy eating habits, sleep dysfunction, and fears.
During your treatment, you will be in complete control and total awareness. You’ll learn how to tap into your subconscious and transform habits and beliefs into more positive ones. You’ll leave with a personalized tape to help you continue your transformation on your own.
• REFLEXOLOGY
This is a relaxing way to stimulate the body’s natural healing abilities. Reflexology is based on the principle that specific points on the feet correspond to systems, muscles, and organs throughout the body. Putting pressure on these points induces relaxation, stimulates nerve pathways, increases circulation, and balances the body’s energy flow. You’ll also be treated to a foot massage using essential oils and warm towels.
• RAINDROP THERAPY
A raindrop treatment uses nine essential oils to treat tension and to release toxins from muscle tissue. The oils are dropped along the back—like raindrops—and are massaged into the muscle tissue with a variety of massage and energy-balancing techniques.
• REIKI
This is an Asian technique that uses simple light touches to balance the body’s flow of energy. You’ll stay fully clothed throughout the session while the practitioner uses a pattern of touch to stimulate energy flow. You’ll leave feeling rejuvenated and energized.
VARIETY OF MASSAGE TECHNIQUES
We offer several different types of massage with our experienced, compassionate, and professional staff of therapists.
• THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE
This is the most basic type of massage, terrific for general relaxation, stress relief, and release of tight muscles.
• HOT STONE MASSAGE
Our therapists use smooth heated stones to give you a massage that reaches deep into muscle tissue to sooth and relax stressed-out muscles and joints.
• LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE MASSAGE
This type of massage uses a lighter touch to get the lymph system flowing, which can improve the immune system. It’s great for people who’ve been inactive due to injury or illness.
• PREGNANCY MASSAGE
Women who are pregnant and dealing with changes in their body love the attention and care of our trained therapists. Regular massage can help with back pain, swelling, and even help make the birthing process a little easier.
• SPORTS MASSAGE
Athletes and sports teams of any skill level and age can benefit greatly from massage therapy. Runners, swimmers, golfers—combat those aches and pains, and even improve your performance, with regular massage treatments.
• SHIATSU MASSAGE
This traditional Asian method of massage uses finger pressure to relieve pain and renew the body’s energy level.
• A-SHIATSU MASSAGE
This technique is perfect for people who want deep-tissue treatment. The therapist uses her bare feet to apply deep strokes over the body, while balancing above the client using parallel bars suspended from the ceiling.
A CALM SETTING
All of our massages are done in the comfort and privacy of individual rooms. From the relaxing music, to the scents of the essential oils our therapists use, to the comfortable massage tables—everything about your experience at Holistic Care Approach is designed to promote relaxation and aid in healing.
We can also come to you. We have therapists who will come to your business and provide chair massage for employees, or come to your home if you can’t make it to our facility. Call us at 616-361-9221 for more information about either of these options.
