The Alpine Clinic was founded in 1998 by Dr. Dianne Farley-Jones for the purpose of encouraging healthy living and illness prevention while providing necessary medical care.
Our Approach:
The human body is capable of healing itself if given the proper direction. This is accomplished by supplying missing biochemical intermediates (usually derived from nutrients) and avoiding interfering substances.
The increasing amounts of toxins in our environment (food, water, air) act as interrupters in our bodies and are primary contributors to the heavy burden of chronic disease in our society.
We believe that patentable pharmaceuticals act to block normal physiological pathways in a variety of ways, producing changes in symptoms. Sometimes these effects are needed for acute problems. However, because drugs are foreign to the body and do not support normal physiological pathways, they do not lead to true healing.
We focus on the contributions of 7 factors related to health which may need to be balanced or corrected.
1. Nutrient sufficiency
2. Muscle strength
3. Neurotransmitter balance
4. Hormonal balance
5. Toxins
6. Allergies
7. Infections
All of these factors play a role in health, although only one or two may predominate at a given time.
