There’s some new faces! Let me reintroduce myself! I’m Dr Ellerie, holistic doctor, gentle and cosmetic acupuncturist, and owner of SLO Naturopathic and Acupuncture. I’m also a plant enthusiast (hoarder), dog and cat (x2) mama, gluten free foodie, and ceramicist
When it comes to health, I believe:
➡️ In both science and traditional medicine. I studied biomedical engineering at CalPoly before I went to Naturopathic and Acupuncture school. Why do either/or when you can do both!
➡️ In the bodies ability to heal. Doctors don’t heal people, people heal themselves when given the right tools.
➡️ Treating the whole person. This means looking at physical symptoms but also looking at diet, habits, nervous system regulation and stress management, trauma, emotions… all of you!
➡️ In listening to my patients. I hear way too many stories of doctors gas lighting and dismissing their patients story and symptoms. It doesn’t have to be that way. I’ll listen!
➡️ Root cause medicine. Conventional medicine love to suppress symptoms and pretend the problem is solved. Root cause medicine means digging deeper into your health and asking *why* you have symptoms.
➡️ In delicious and nutritious food.
➡️ Using the most gentle and effective treatments first. Especially in acupuncture! I even offer needle-free acupuncture treatments. Head to my website slonaturopathic.com if you want to learn more.
➡️ Our skin is a reflection of our internal health. Glowing radiant skin comes from within. Although a Qi Glow facial helps too ☺️
➡️ In the strength of community - I’m so glad you’re here!
