Looking Beyond Symptoms, Restoring Balance
You can live free of pain and chronic illness when you have a doctor who can identify and treat the root causes of your health problems. Since 1997, Dr. Tom Mitchell has done just that, helping thousands of patients reclaim vibrant health using proven healing modalities — without the side effects of prescription medications or risk of surgical intervention.
Dr. Mitchell has training and expertise in several healing modalities, combining the best of Eastern medicine and Western medical assessment. Rather than merely treating symptoms, Dr. Mitchell assesses the functional, nutritional and energetic imbalances underlying your health problems. This evaluation may include an acupuncture meridian assessment, a pulse assessment and a functional blood chemistry analysis, in addition to a thorough physical examination. In this way, he can help you “connect the dots,” so to speak, to determine why you may be experiencing multiple health problems.
By using several forms of assessment and a holistic healing strategy, illness can be detected and addressed at its earliest stages. Dr. Mitchell will approach your health as an interrelated set of issues and offer therapies that create overall balance. In this way, you can experience profound, long-lasting healing and return to your state of vibrant health.
A Three-Pronged Approach
Dr. Mitchell assesses an individual’s health from three interrelated perspectives:
- Structure and Function
- Energy
- Nutrition
Dr. Mitchell’s holistic approach to health and well-being goes beyond treating symptoms, offering patients a breakthrough in healing and increased vitality.
Structure
Chiropractic addresses the structure and function of the spine and nervous system.
Energy
Acupuncture removes blocks in the subtle energetic pathways found throughout the body. Acupuncture can be performed with or without needles, by using imperceptible yet highly effective electrical stimulation on acupuncture points.
Homeopathic Remedies work on a subtle level to relieve both acute and chronic symptoms. Dr. Mitchell has expertise in the use of homeopathic remedies and will recommend remedies that support your health.
Herbal Remedies help to restore normal functioning of the physiology and positively impact the mental and emotional levels. Dr. Mitchell is the only registered herbalist (American Herbalist Guild) in the Triangle.
Nutrition
Functional blood chemistry analysis and saliva hormone testing are used by Dr. Mitchell to detect the body’s nutritional and endocrine weaknesses. Once health problems are identified through testing, Dr. Mitchell recommends American, Chinese and Ayurvedic herbal remedies, often combined with supporting nutritional factors, such as vitamins and minerals — all tailored to the specific needs of the individual.
Respect for the Healing Continuum
Rest assured that Dr. Mitchell is quick to refer patients to their medical doctors, specialists or to the emergency room when he identifies a problem that requires immediate medical attention. He is also open to working with your doctor, recognizing and respecting the vital role that allopathic medicine plays in patients’ lives.
