Heart health goes far beyond a single cholesterol number.

Your cardiovascular system is closely tied to your nervous system, hormones, stress levels, sleep quality, blood sugar regulation, and inflammation. Looking at one lab value alone rarely tells the full story.

That’s why Dr. Lara offers an extensive Cardiac Metabolic Panel — a comprehensive blood test that helps evaluate multiple factors involved in heart and metabolic health, not just cholesterol. This panel provides deeper insight into inflammation, blood sugar balance, insulin resistance, and other markers that influence long-term cardiovascular risk.

Chronic stress, for example, can keep the body in fight-or-flight, raising blood pressure, increasing inflammation, and disrupting cortisol and glucose rhythms. Over time, this creates strain on the heart that cannot be corrected by supplements alone.
True heart health comes from understanding the full picture and creating a personalized plan that supports the whole system.

If you’re ready to look beyond basic labs and understand your heart health more fully, schedule a consultation with Dr. Lara.

Many supplements on the market are old, poorly stored, under-dosed, or oxidized by the time they reach your body. That means you could be taking something every day and still not getting the therapeutic effect you need.

Naturopathic theraputic dosing is also different from what you see on the bottle. It is not designed for the general population. It is tailored to your labs, symptoms, absorption, and overall health picture.

Buying something because it is cheap or convenient often leads to spending more in the long run with little progress.

If you want supplements that are selected, tested, and dosed for your specific needs, Dr.Lara prioritizes quality over convenience.

Plugging your labs into AI or Googling symptoms can create fear, confusion, and false conclusions. AI cannot emotionally calibrate information, ask the right follow-up questions, or understand your lived experience.

Medicine is not just data. It is discernment, pattern recognition, clinical reasoning, and relationship. Your health cannot be reduced to a spreadsheet or chatbot output.

Real healing requires a REAL human who listens, evaluates context, and adjusts care based on your unique physiology.

If you are tired of trying to interpret your own health alone, it may be time to work with Dr. Lara, who sees the whole picture.

Many patients are told everything looks fine — yet they’re still struggling with fatigue, brain fog, weight changes, mood shifts, or sleep issues.

Conventional labs often look for disease, not dysfunction. In naturopathic care, we ask a different question: What is your body struggling to compensate for?
Normal labs don’t always mean optimal health. Your symptoms are real — and they matter.

If you’ve been told everything is “normal” but you don’t feel normal, let’s look deeper.

Schedule a consultation with Dr. Lara to explore what your body may be trying to communicate.

That “gunk” you see isn’t gross… it’s your skin finally letting go of what it’s been holding onto.

The HydraFacial Gunkie Jar shows everything pulled from your pores in real time, dead skin, oil, makeup, pollution, and bacteria. It’s proof of how deeply this treatment cleans, not just on the surface, but inside the pores where congestion and breakouts start.

Each HydraFacial tip has a purpose, from gentle exfoliation to painless extraction to serum infusion and lymphatic drainage. This is skin detox, hydration, and healing working together.

And real skin change happens with consistency. That’s why the Platinum HydraFacial Package is designed as a 5-treatment series to help your skin reset, rebalance, and glow over time.

Right now, your 5th treatment is FREE, plus a FREE Aura365 medical-grade peel system, a $585 value.

If you’re ready to invest in real skin health, this is your sign.

Book your Platinum HydraFacial package today and tell me, are you curious what your Gunkie Jar would look like?

Feeling wired, tired, or overwhelmed? Your stress hormones may be asking for support.
�Adaptogenic herbs like ashwagandha and holy basil help the body respond more calmly to stress. These herbs support cortisol balance, nervous system regulation, and resilience during periods of emotional or physical strain.

Many people notice improved energy, better sleep, and a greater sense of calm — not because stress disappears, but because the body handles it more efficiently.

Herbs are powerful tools, but they’re not one-size-fits-all. The right support depends on your unique physiology.

Your skin doesn’t need more products — it needs a reset.

�If your skin feels dull, congested, inflamed, or just off, it’s often a reflection of stress, lymphatic congestion, and internal imbalance, not just what you’re putting on your face.

Our Platinum HydraFacial Experience is designed as a complete skin health reset. Each 60-minute treatment supports lymphatic drainage, deep cleansing, gentle exfoliation, hydration, and targeted skin boosters — all guided through a naturopathic lens.

For a limited time, when you purchase 4 Platinum treatments, your 5th treatment is FREE, plus a complimentary lip perk, eye perk, and Aura365 medical-grade peel system — a total added value of $585.

Spots are limited. Book your Platinum HydraFacial package and give your skin the reset it’s been asking for.

�Food is information for your body. Some foods help reduce inflammation, stabilize blood sugar, and support healing — while others can keep your system stuck in survival mode.

Healing foods like protein, healthy fats, leafy greens, and whole foods help regulate hormones, support digestion, and steady energy. On the other hand, excess sugar, ultra-processed foods, and refined carbs can increase inflammation, worsen cravings, and disrupt mood.

This isn’t about perfection or restriction. It’s about learning which foods help your body feel safe, nourished, and supported.

If your New Year reset already feels exhausting… you’re not doing it wrong.

�January often comes with pressure to overhaul everything at once — diet, workouts, routines, mindset. But the truth is, most “resets” fail because they ignore the nervous system.

When your body is stressed, inflamed, or depleted, extreme changes only push it further into survival mode. Healing doesn’t happen through force — it happens through consistency, safety, and support.

Real, lasting health starts with listening to your body, not punishing it. Slow changes. Sustainable habits. Root-cause care.

�This year, choose progress over pressure.�If you’re ready for a grounded, realistic approach to your health, schedule a consultation with Dr. Lara.
