Dr. Holly shared alternatives to traditional medicine
 
Our newest member, Dr. Holly Fourchalk, shared with us her extensive background, professionally and personally (Wow!!).  She reviewed the options and benefits of naturopathic treatment options, told us about her practice, and demonstrated some of the testing tools she uses to assess the body's needs.
 
Dr. Holly made the very important point that the body requires various nutrients to function properly and a deficiency of one or more of those nutrients can have a dramatic impact upon the body's functions.  Typically, traditional medical techniques treat the symptoms but not always the underlying cause and the drugs used can add further stress to the body, which is already compromised.  The body is designed to heal itself.  Examples:  gut bacteria is key and can cause many issues and several medical conditions can contribute or cause depression including a magnesium deficiency.
 
Holly has two dogs, has traveled worldwide, and has been volunteering in her community since she was young.
 
Thanks again to Holly and welcome to the Club!!
