Our Staff
The staff at Stafford Total Health, are all highly qualified individuals who are dedicated to ensuring you receive the best possible treatment for your health care problem. Staff members have extensive training that fosters an environment where each patient is treated like a human being instead of just another number as in the “assembly line” approach perpetuated by the “business of healthcare.”
What makes us different?
Our treatment philosophy at the Stafford Total Health is really simple: Treat the person, not their diagnosis.
A diagnosis is just a starting point, it’s a label, and thousands of people are wrongly diagnosed every day from everything from migraine headaches to allergies.
So we don’t want to get caught up in what you could call a “traditional” diagnosis. It doesn’t really give information on the best approach to remedy the problem. It certainly does not indicate the best approach to treating the condition metabolically or neurologically.
If a doctor says, “Okay you have fibromyalgia or diabetes or chronic pain syndrome”…where do we go from there? Traditional medical care would be medicine. However, there’s about 500 reasons why you may experience those symptoms. It’s not the same for every person. To correct the condition we must get to the root cause. That means we must look at all of the systems of the body as they should be… one integrative system.
To do this we look at blood chemistry, Immune Panels, Adrenal glands, Thyroid gland, Blood Sugar levels, Gut health, Hormones, Digestion and the nerve system.
We look at a functional diagnosis; meaning let’s look at the regions of the brain that may not be working right. Let’s look at other systems of your body that may not be working right and are causing these horrible symptoms through metabolic testing.
So our approach is to ask the questions:
1. What is the mechanism?
2. Why is this happening?
There are no one-size-fits all diagnoses or treatments. The treatment approach is pretty simple. I identify the areas of the brain that are weak, that are not functioning correctly, and then I strengthen them using non-drug methods.
I also identify the problems and imbalances in the hormone system, GI system and immune system that area causing your Chronic Health Problem…and then specifically use a scientific, natural approach, to correct the imbalances.
It’s all about doing the right things, at the right time, in the right order. There is no one size fits all, but there is an answer. Learn how to apply to our recovery program.
