Since 2005, we’ve specialized in Holistic Endocrinology, Women’s Health, and Reproductive Medicine, and we are considered pioneers in this field. Our Director, Chris Axelrad, was one of the first and is still one of the only holistic medical practitioners in Houston to specialize in these areas and he and his staff do extensive post-graduate study in this area.

Every year, we get hundreds of referrals from our past patients who achieved permanent relief from the hormonal issues that once plagued them. Simply put, what we do really works.

Our goal is simply this – for you to feel better. We will work with you whether or not you are taking medications. Many of our patients decide to discontinue their hormonal medications, others are able to dramatically reduce their dose. Whatever you choose, we will work with you to help you feel your best.

Our process includes finding and attacking the actual root CAUSE of your hormonal imbalance. This is why so many have found relief with our therapies, even though other therapies didn’t work. Even those with a long term chronic issues – like Hashimoto’s, PCOS, endometriosis, PMS, IBS, severe hot flashes, depression and adrenal fatigue, and other things conventional medicine has trouble managing – have experienced significant relief once they are under our care.

Despite what you may have been led to believe, your body is not “broken” and it IS possible to have energy, focus, and joy again. That’s because your body never forgets how to heal itself. It just needs the right support. Your body makes its own very powerful anti-inflammatory and healing medicines, and our therapeutic protocols amplify and strengthen these self-healing aspects of your physiology.

While everyone else is looking at pieces of paper with numbers, and not listening to you – WE focus on YOU, your story, and how you feel.

Are you feeling more energy? Are you thinking more clearly? Are you experiencing less pain and more positive mood? Are you starting to lose those unwanted pounds? Does your skin look healthy and vibrant? THAT is OUR focus. NOT more expensive, unnecessary lab tests.

Acupuncture is one of the most powerful ways to naturally stimulate your body's innate healing process. Then, it gets right to work repairing and restoring all cells and tissues. Laser Acupuncture harnesses the vast healing intelligence your body contains to help it heal faster and with more lasting effects.

Herbs simultaneously cure AND strengthen the body. This dual action is something unique to herbal medicine that makes it very well suited to treat hormonal conditions including thyroid, menstrual disorders, mood problems, sleep issues, and fertility.

When your cells, glands, and tissues are fully nourished with the specific nutrients they need, these tissues naturally function at a very high level. This means you feel your best because the body’s key systems are optimized.

At your free initial consultation you’ll meet with your clinician to discuss your case, your medical history, any medications you’re taking, and most importantly YOUR GOALS. We want to be certain that our program is going to meet your needs and that there is a HIGH probability of success for you – BEFORE we move forward to the next step.

Once your free consultation is complete, and we agree to move forward, your next step is the Intake appointment. At this appointment, your clinician will do a detailed assessment of your symptom pattern, medical history, and other factors to determine the root cause of your issue and devise a specific plan of attack.

Your first acupuncture session will be performed at this time, and a you will be given a treatment plan with exact, easy-to-follow instructions. Your treatment plan will include dietary and lifestyle adjustments as well as key supplements and herbal medicines to address the root of YOUR thyroid issue.

Once we see stable improvements, we will begin to reduce the frequency of visits. This usually occurs after about 8-12 visits. Initially you’ll come every other week, then once a month for a couple of visits, then you will no longer need regular treatments.

We’ll be here in case you ever want to come in for a tune-up or to address other health concerns.

Of course, MANY of our patients do wish to continue with “ongoing maintenance” and we are happy to work that out with you, should that be your wish.
