Together, you will work to discover and remove obstacles to your optimal health (e.g., diet, digestion, stress, sleep, energy). As a team, we will identify and treat the root cause of those obstacles, rather than solely treat your symptoms. In follow-up appointments, you and Dr. Yen will work to stimulate the body’s innate healing abilities and restore weakened systems. Every patient’s healing journey is unique.
