Uniting traditional medicine with your body's own ability to heal itself!

A MESSAGE FROM DR. JONUZI About IMC

Welcome to a new level of medical care, the model for the new millennium!  IMC's mission is to improve your health and quality of life by finding the root cause of your chronic illness.  To accomplish this, we integrate the best features of traditional and alternative medicine with physicians who are trained in both traditional and holistic/alternative medicines - the best of both worlds.

By now you are likely to have visited numerous physicians who, despite their skills and concern, have been unable to diagnose or cure your illness.  In many instances they have spent more time trying to find the "right" medication than attempting to determine the root cause of your problems.  They may even have told you, "There is nothing wrong with you." 

We understand your frustration!   As you will find in our patient testimonials, about 85% of our patients have endured a similar experience before finding relief through the Integrative Medical Center.

THE NATUROPATHIC PRINCIPLES OF HEALING

Homeostasis : A state In which the entire body is in complete harmony with itself.

Naturopathic Medicine is a distinctively natural approach to health and healing that recognizes the integrity of the whole person.

Naturopathic Medicine is heir to the vitalistic tradition of medicine in the western world, emphasizing the treatment of disease through the stimulation, enhancement, and support of the inherent healing capacity of the person. Methods of treatments are chosen to work with the patient’s vital force, respecting the intelligence of the natural healing process. Naturopathic principles of healing are based on the objective observation of the nature of health and disease, and are continually re-examined in light of scientific analysis.

The healing power of nature. Vis medicatrix naturae: 

The body has the inherent ability to establish, maintain, and restore health. The healing process is ordered and intelligent; nature heals through the response of the life force. The physician’s  role is to facilitate and augment this process, to act and support the creation of a healthy internal and external environment.
  

THE PRACTICE OF NATUROPATHY

Naturopathic philosophy serves as the basis for naturopathic practice. The current scope of naturopathic practice includes, but is not limited to:

Clinical Nutrition

That food is the best medicine is a cornerstone of naturopathic practice. Many medical conditions can be treated more effectively with foods nutritional supplements than they can by other means, with fewer complications and side effects. Naturopathic physicians use dietetics, natural hygiene, natural gentle cleansing, fasting, and nutritional supplementation in practice.

Botanical Medicine

Many plant substances are powerful medicines. Where single chemically-derived drugs may only address a single problem, botanical medicines are able to address a variety of problems simultaneously. Their organic nature makes botanicals compatible with the body’s own chemistry; hence, they can be gently effective with few toxic side effects.

Homeopathic Medicine

Homeopathic medicine is based on the principle of “like cures like.” It works on a subtle yet powerful electromagnetic level, gently acting to strengthen the body’s healing and immune response.

Physical Medicine

Naturopathic Medicine has its own methods of non-invasive pain management. N.D. use Korean hand therapy, Magnetic Acupressure suction cup therapy, Infared therapy (infared sauna), exercise, massage, water, heat, and cold, air, and gentle electrical pulses.

Oriental Medicine

Oriental medicine is a complimentary healing philosophy to naturopathic medicine. Meridian theory offers an important understanding of the unity of the body and mind, and adds to the Western understanding of physiology. Acupressure and Chinese herbs provide a method of treatment which can unify and harmonize the imbalances present in disease conditions, which, if untreated, may result in illness.

ABOUT OUR CLINIC:

We look forward to obtaining your history and serving you as you recover.  Rest assured, we intend to make you better.  After all, your health is our primary concern.  A healthy body, mind, and spirit is our goal.  
I would also like to take this opportunity to introduce our clinic in order to apprise you of our services. Our clinic, in addition to providing comprehensive medical care for chronic metabolic problems, also specializes in non-invasive pain management, rehabilitation, clinical nutrition, detoxification I.V. Nutrition and weight correction.

Physicians at the Integrative Medical Center emphasize prevention, early diagnosis and cost effective, non invasive treatments that work toward the elimination of the root causes of chronic degenerative illnesses and medical conditions that have gone undetected by traditional medicine. Many conditions treated at IMC are still considered to have “no known cause” or are incurable by those practicing only traditional medicine.

IMC physicians perform: Complete physical examinations, all-inclusive diagnostic tests, metabolic, physiological and biochemical profiles. Based on the results of these tests, the doctors create an individualized course of treatment uniquely tailored to each patient’s body chemistry needs.  As a team we strive to improve our patient’s quality of life.

The Integrative Medical Center’s mission is to integrate complementary (alternative) medicine with conventional (traditional) medicine in order to treat chronic diseases which are not easily treated by the conventional medical community that is inclined to treat patient’s symptoms rather than the underlying cause of the disease.

“We believe that our approach has proven to be more successful than traditional medicine when it comes to treating chronic conditions.”

We also believe that primary care should consist of education, lifestyle, fitness, nutrition, spiritual life and development, and prevention. Secondary care should be integration of Naturopathic, Conventional and Chiropractic care, etc. Emergency care should be our last system of care when it comes to crisis intervention in which our medical professionals are the best in the world.
