For those who were inattentive that day long ago in high school chemistry, the “heavy metals” refer to a group of especially dense metals or metal-like substances (called metalloids) found in our environment. Best left outside and not inside our bodies. These metals–specifically lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium, and aluminum–unfortunately can all be absorbed by your […]

We are thrilled to bring our services to the south side!
We are a healthcare practice that strives to integrate the best of conventional and complementary medicine in a caring and healing environment. We believe that both health and disease are functions of physical, emotional, nutritional, and spiritual influences. Many health issues are rooted in a patient’s personal biography – the story of your life – and are most effectively treated by addressing root causes rather than symptoms alone.

For example, Bob, with middle aged spread, his newly diagnosed high blood pressure, high cholesterol, started his treatment elsewhere is now meeting with Olivia Darrow, […]
Spring! And time for a Health Tip on Lyme Disease and other tick borne illnesses. All in preparation for your summer vacation to those large northern suburbs Wisconsin and Michigan because each exports so many cases of Lyme Disease to our WholeHealth Chicago Centers.

Last month, our occasionally misguided Director of Health and Human Services stated something factually incorrect, namely that immunity from MMR (measles-mumps-rubella) vaccine wanes at 4.5% a year (it does not) and that “older people are essentially unvaccinated.” They are not. “Older people” (whatever that means) are usually very well protected from measles. If a person […]
