Women have unique healthcare needs. We specialize in reproductive health and the many ways that gynecological health intersects with whole-body health.

The female reproductive organs, the primary focus of gynecology, are intimately connected to every other organ system in the body through estrogen and other hormones. In addition to reproduction, estrogen controls energy utilization throughout the body and is key to brain health, heart health, digestive health, proper weight control, and immune system health. Consequently, gynecological health impacts whole-body health and vice versa.

Given this interconnected complexity, it only makes sense to view gynecologic issues in an integrative, whole-body manner. At IMGI, we begin with advanced testing to get an accurate picture of your true, overall health status and we consider all the factors impacting traditional female issues, and then we treat them on a systemic level.

Working in partnership with you, we develop a treatment plan that may consist of a combination of nutritional therapies, herbal supplementation, physical activity recommendations, stress and sleep management therapies, homeopathy, acupuncture, intermittent fasting programs, and bioidentical hormones. Only in extreme circumstances, when safer alternatives are not effective, do we recommend pharmaceuticals or surgery.
