Question 1

How long does it typically take to see results with natural healing methods?

Accepted Answer

Recovery time varies based on the duration and severity of illness, as well as how closely clients follow the recommendations. Typically, it can take between 4 months to a year or more to restore health. After the consultation, the Report of Findings will provide a specific recommendation for the estimated duration needed for each individual.

Question 2

I'm not really into taking a bunch of supplements. Is this just about trying to sell me more products?

Accepted Answer

We utilize therapeutic and proven whole food supplements to support the body in rebuilding itself at a cellular level. During this period, we are working with the client to remove any foods that may be causing inflammation while adding foods that supports the body in its healing. We are also getting digestion in place so the body is able to utilize the nutrients of the foods being consumed. You are only on the supplements recommended for the particular organ or stressor until such time it is operating optimally – you will then maintain its health through your eating.

Question 3

I'm already taking a lot of supplements and while I feel some are working, others don't seem to be making a difference so how are yours going to be any different?

Accepted Answer

The therapeutic whole food supplements and oral stem cells we use have been clinically proven over the years to deliver effective results. They offer a much higher level of therapeutic benefit than most store-bought options. We encourage clients to bring in their current supplements for testing to determine if they are beneficial or counterproductive. If they prove to be helpful, clients can continue using them.

Question 4

Are natural treatments safe, and are there any side effects?

Accepted Answer

The vast majority of our therapeutic supplements are safe and have no side effects or contraindications. For the few that may have contraindications (typically certain herbs), our practitioners are highly trained and knowledgeable about them. The best approach is to treat natural medicine with the same respect as conventional care: seek guidance from knowledgeable, qualified practitioners, always inform your healthcare provider about any supplements or therapies, and purchase only from reputable sources. Natural remedies can be highly effective and supportive, but safety comes from personalized, professional guidance—not from the word “natural” alone.

Question 5

I can't swallow pills, can you still help me?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! We’ve worked with many clients over the years who have difficulty swallowing pills. We offer several protocols that include options like liquid supplements, emptying capsules, or crushing supplements to mix into a drink, such as a smoothie.

Liquified natural foods—such as smoothies, pureed vegetables, broths, and fresh juices—can promote healing by delivering concentrated nutrients in a form that is gentle on the digestive system. These liquid foods are easy to absorb, allowing the body to benefit quickly from vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and hydration while minimizing the energy needed for digestion.

Liquified natural diets are often recommended for people recovering from illness, surgery, or digestive distress because they can reduce inflammation, improve nutrient intake, and allow the gut time to rest and heal. By using whole, natural ingredients and blending or straining them, the body receives targeted nutrition, which may boost immunity, energy, and overall cellular repair—especially when chewing or digesting solids is difficult.

Question 6

Do I need to make lifestyle changes, such as diet or exercise, to support natural healing?

Accepted Answer

Holistic healing encompasses the mind, body, and soul, and lifestyle is a crucial factor in maintaining health. Based on your consultation and testing, the practitioner will provide personalized recommendations for lifestyle changes that best support your unique needs.

Question 7

How do emotions play a role in one's heath and how do you address them?

Accepted Answer

Holistic healing involves the mind, body, and soul. Negative emotions or thoughts, such as depression, fear, anger, or PTSD, can significantly impact your health. We offer various approaches to address these emotions, including prayer for those who are open and ready to receive it, and a service called Emotion Code. Emotion Code helps release emotions trapped within the fascia without requiring clients to relive past negative experiences. Book your session either in person or through telehealth HERE

Question 8

What types of conditions respond well to natural healing?

Accepted Answer

We believe the body has the innate ability to heal itself when given the right tools. God designed our bodies to be self-healing. All that’s needed is a commitment to remove toxins and stressors, provide the essential nutrients for rebuilding, and maintain a strong belief and vision for achieving optimal health.

Question 9

How is the effectiveness of natural treatments measured or monitored?

Accepted Answer

Nutrition Response Testing enables the practitioner to monitor the ongoing detoxification progress and assess organ health regularly, typically on a weekly basis, to track improvements. Additionally, tests like the Heart Rate Variability test show measurable progress upon retesting. For clients who choose to do additional bloodwork, improvements in targeted areas can be observed every 90 days, as the blood naturally regenerates during this period.

Question 10

What are the potential benefits of choosing natural healing over pharmaceuticals?

Accepted Answer

Natural healing focuses on addressing the root cause of symptoms, which are signals that something in the body isn’t functioning properly. Pharmaceuticals often mask these symptoms rather than resolving the underlying issue. Despite the vast array of heart and diabetes medications available, the prevalence of these conditions—and many others, including autoimmune diseases—continues to rise. This suggests that true healing goes beyond symptom management.

Question 11

Are there specific conditions or situations where natural healing is not recommended?

Accepted Answer

Natural healing approaches are generally effective, but there are specific conditions or situations where they may not be the best option. In such cases, we would thoroughly evaluate the situation and, if necessary, refer you to a specialist or alternative treatment to ensure you receive the most appropriate care.

Question 12

Are you licensed physicians?

Accepted Answer

Our Practitioners are certified in the services they provide. They are not licensed physicians and do not diagnose. Having graduated from the Southern College of Naturopathy, Shannon Eggleston holds a degree as a Naturopath vs. a Doctor of Naturopathy license from the State of California. The services provided are considered unlicensed healing arts per the State of California.

Question 13

What is the difference between a Naturopath and Doctor of Naturopathy?

Accepted Answer

A Doctor of Naturopathy is licensed by the State of CA to diagnose and provide licensed healing arts. A Naturopath does not need a license in CA to practice naturopathy but cannot diagnose nor provide what would be considered licensed healing arts.

Question 14

Do you prescribe drugs or pharmaceuticals?

Accepted Answer

We do not prescribe pharmaceuticals. We believe in using only holistic care methods and natural supplements. The nutritional supplements that we carry are made from whole food and are created by reputable companies with the highest quality and ethical standards. We also practice what we teach in our own personal lives – we use these methods for our own health.

Question 15

Do you accept health insurance?

Accepted Answer

While most insurance plans do not cover our services, we’re committed to making natural health care accessible to everyone. That’s why we offer flexible payment options, including credit cards, checks, HSAs, and FSAs. Many of our clients find our programs to be more affordable than paying high insurance deductibles. We’re also happy to provide a superbill for potential reimbursement—some clients have successfully received reimbursement through their health share plans, so it’s always worth checking with your provider.

Question 16

What is Nutrition Response Testing?

Accepted Answer

Nutrition Response Testing

Nutrition Response Testing is a non-invasive way to find the underlying causes of symptoms and guide safe, lasting recovery, especially for those who haven’t found answers elsewhere. The method uses your body’s feedback to design a tailored healing plan.

Question 17

What is the difference between Nutrition Response Testing and the Medical Model?

Accepted Answer

“In medical practice there is the diagnosis (identifying and/or naming the “disease” or syndrome) and the treatment (drugs, surgery, etc.).
In Nutrition Response Testing we do not diagnose or treat disease, rather we have an analysis (the assessment of your body’s current health status) and the personalized health improvement program (using designed clinical nutrition).”

Question 18

How does Nutrition Response Testing work?

Accepted Answer

The analysis is done through testing the body’s autonomic nervous system (ANS). Nutrition Response Testing analyzes different areas on the surface of the body that relate to the state of health and to the flow of energy in each and every organ and function of the body. This information is derived from the autonomic nervous system (ANS), which regulates the functions of every organ and controls involuntary bodily functions such as heart rate, digestion, and immune response Each area that gives a response represents a specific organ, tissue, or function, and indicates the effect that energy, or the lack of energy, is having on the body. By testing these organs /areas, we have a system of monitoring your body at each visit that has proven to be extremely accurate clinically, and that helps us identify exactly what the body needs, at what priority, and how well we are meeting that need.

Question 19

How does the Practitioner apply Nutrition Response Testing?

Accepted Answer

The practitioner applies light pressure to the muscle of your extended arm. If the organ/area being contacted is “active” the nervous system will respond by reducing energy to the extended arm, and the arm will weaken and drop. This drop signifies underlying stress or dysfunction, which can be affecting your health.

Question 20

What is a Personalized Health Improvement Program?

Accepted Answer

Let’s say the liver or thyroid reflexes are active. Then what? Our next step is to test specific, time-tested and proven, highest-possible quality nutritional formulas (Designed Clinical Nutrition) against those weak areas, to find which ones bring the organs/areas back to strength. A complete analysis can be done on each subsequent visit, including testing for stressors. Often these reveal additional layers of dysfunction. These can then be addressed in the correct sequence for your body and that’s how each client gets a completely individualized program. By following the program as precisely as possible, you are well on your way to restoring normal function. It’s that simple!

Question 21

What are stressors?

Accepted Answer

Stressors put “stress” on the body’s organs and its ability to function. Stressors can be any number of things including: Scars, Food Sensitivities, Digestive Disturbances Sugar Imbalances, Immune Challenges (Bacteria, Virus, Mold, Parasites, Fungus, Yeast. Candida, etc.), Adrenal Insufficiencies, Chemical and Heavy Metal Challenges, Electro Magnetic Fields (EMFs), Post Pandemic Factors. Once identified through Nutrition Response Testing, it is important to address whatever the body presents.

Question 22

What is Designed Clinical Nutrition?

Accepted Answer

These are concentrated whole food in tablets or capsules prepared using a process that preserves all of the active enzymes and vital components that make it work as Nature intended. These real food supplements have been designed to match the needs of the body. These are nutrients you are not getting, or not assimilating, in your current diet. Designed Clinical Nutrition is NOT ‘over-the-counter’ vitamins. Over-the-counter vitamins are pharmaceutically engineered chemical fractions of vitamin structures reproduced in a laboratory. They are not derived from whole foods and often make you even more deficient and nutritionally out-of-balance. They can create other health problems because they do not contain all of the co-factors found in nature that make the vitamins work.

Question 23

Why aren’t Labs or Bloodwork Performed?

Accepted Answer

Even though labs/blood work can tell you if something is abnormal or malfunctioning in the body, it can’t tell you WHY. The type of testing we do gives us the WHAT and the WHY so that we can address the actual root of the problem and why it’s happening. Typically, blood work needs to show a 60% degradation in function before abnormalities are detected. Nutrition Response Testing can identify dysfunction with just a 5% degradation. This means that symptoms can appear before traditional lab results show any abnormalities, as people often experience symptoms earlier in the disease progression before it becomes evident in standard lab tests.” Most of the people we have helped over the years were helped by what we were able to find that did not show up in their labs!

Question 24

Do you handle fertility?

Accepted Answer

We support both men and women experiencing fertility challenges. Our approach emphasizes optimizing the health of both partners to address any underlying causes, ensuring they are in the best health to nurture future family health.

Question 25

Do you see babies and kids?

Accepted Answer

“Yes, we care for children of all ages, from newborns and toddlers to teens and young adults.”

Question 26

Do you treat cancer?

Accepted Answer

Whether we’re discussing cancer, autoimmune diseases, or any other condition, we don’t directly treat diseases or symptoms. Instead, we focus on identifying the root cause and providing the body with the support it needs to heal naturally. When the body gets what it needs and stressors are removed, it is better equipped to heal itself.

Question 27

What diseases do you treat?

Accepted Answer

We don’t directly treat diseases or symptoms. Instead, we focus on identifying the root cause and providing the body with the support it needs to heal naturally. When the body gets what it needs and stressors are removed, it is better equipped to heal itself.

Question 28

How long will it take my body to heal?

Accepted Answer

The body heals in layers, and the time it takes depends on the severity and duration of your illness. Each person’s journey is unique and also depends on how well they follow the program. Healing isn’t a race; it’s a process. We work with each individual at their own pace and comfort level

Question 29

I want to know what my hormone levels are, will your testing tell me my levels?

Accepted Answer

Although blood work can show your hormone levels, it doesn’t explain why they’re out of balance or how to restore that balance. Many of our clients have hormone imbalances that don’t show up in blood tests. Our testing identifies the root causes of your hormone imbalance, prioritizes which stressors need to be removed, and determines which organs need support. We address each layer systematically, helping your body regain its natural hormone balance.

Question 30

Do you recommend Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Accepted Answer

While Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) can alleviate many symptoms, it has side effects and doesn’t address the underlying cause of your hormone imbalance. As your body changes, you’ll always be chasing that balance. We believe in helping your body produce the hormones it needs naturally, rather than providing external hormones and disrupting its natural production. This approach supports long-term balance and health

Question 31

I've been on thyroid medication for years; can you help me?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we can help. By identifying stressors and any organs that may not be functioning optimally, we can support your body in healing naturally and rebuilding at a cellular level. This process helps strengthen the thyroid and restore hormone balance. Once we’ve made progress, we’ll refer you back to your prescribing physician for follow-up tests to adjust or potentially discontinue any medications as needed

Question 32

Do you do IVs for metal detox?

Accepted Answer

We don’t use IV chelation for metal detox. From our extensive experience with thousands of clients, we find it essential to first thoroughly test to understand each individual’s needs. If heavy metals are identified, we ensure proper drainage before starting any detox to prevent worsening the condition. We advocate for a gradual approach, as we’ve encountered serious adverse effects in clients undergoing IV chelation treatments.”

Question 33

Do you do parasite cleanses?

Accepted Answer

We offer a comprehensive parasite cleanse aimed at improving overall gut health and detoxifying the body from various pathogens, including parasites, bacteria, and environmental toxins. Our approach begins by preparing the body for proper drainage and liver function, ensuring that the detox process is safe and effective. We also provide recommendations for lifestyle changes to support long-term health maintenance. This holistic method helps in achieving and maintaining optimal health by addressing the root causes and creating a supportive environment for healing.
