Treatment Philosophy
As a Naturopathic doctor and licensed acupuncturist I treat the whole person; meaning that I consider all aspects of who you are in my medical approach. I will help guide you back to health using treatments tailored specifically to you.
My goal is to support your body’s innate resources in harmony with nature; rather than to simply suppress symptoms.
I will
empower you as we work together to optimize your health and quality of life.
Patient Testimony
"Having just moved into the area I recently became a new patient with Dr. Sarah Kashdan. I discovered her personal treatments with acupuncture offered a healing modality carefully practiced in an environment that nourishes deep intuition and inspired realization.
In this serene environment there can occur an enhanced symmetry between soul, mind and body; and the generation of an enhanced sense of well being.
Blood pressure issues can be easily identified and addressed through the lens of good nutrition, diet, and exercise.
Her understanding of personal health generously considers the many avenues available to advocates of wholeness and personal enrichment.
So glad she's here!"
