Services


At the Francis Holistic Medical Center, P.C., we provide a unique array of services.  Each service we offer is fundamentally based upon our philosophy to provide holistic and integrative medical approaches.  For additional information about a particular service, please visit the links below.



Environmental

Environmental Medicine is for the person who experiences recurring symptoms that fluctuate in severity from day to day.  Some days you feel well, while other days can be difficult.  We strive to help you uncover what is causing these symptoms to arise.  We also see patients with Autism, PDD, ADD, ADHD, and Tourette's Syndrome, as we have found that most of these individuals have metabolic deficiencies and are very sensitive to numerous environmental factors.  For more information about Environmental Medicine, please clink on the link above.


Hormone Therapy

Natural Hormone Therapy involves prescribing one or more bio-identical hormones to balance and correct conditions resulting from low hormone levels in the body.  These natural, bio-identical hormones are highly preferable to the use of synthetic hormones because the human body has receptors for natural hormones and no such receptors exist for synthetic hormones.  For more information, click on the link above.


Preventive

A core concept of preventing illness is the development of more health promoting lifestyles.  Teaching and working with individuals and families to choose more health-promoting lifestyles in order to optimize their long-term health and well-being is the primary focus of Preventive Health Care.  Clink on the link above for more information.
