Working collaboratively with their patients to set customized treatment plans, our doctors and nurse practitioners utilize the latest in genetic and other lab-based testing to guide their recommendations for prescribed medications and/or non-pharmaceutical interventions. These may include exercise plans, nutritional and dietary changes, neuro- and biofeedback therapies, mindfulness and other kinds of meditation practices, nutritional supplements and psychotherapy services. 

Our philosophy of care is that through incorporation of multiple supports, our patients are able to achieve their personal goals for change and reach an enduring state of wellness and mental health in their lives.

At South Florida Integrative Medicine, we offer our patients Neurofeedback and HeartMath biofeedback services as a standalone treatment plan or as a complementary layer to a patient's therapy and/or psychiatric services at our practice. These non-invasive therapies teach our bodies how to respond to personalized feedback about the way our own systems work naturally.

• Neurofeedback — A kind of biofeedback, which teaches self-control of  brain functions to subjects by measuring brain waves and providing a  feedback signal. Neurofeedback addresses a multitude of brain-related issues, including ADHD, PTSD, anxiety, depression, emotional and behavioral issues, learning and developmental disabilities, addiction and substance abuse disorders, chronic pain, migraines, seizures, and sleep deprivation. During neurofeedback therapy sessions our technician retrains the brain, bringing your brainwaves into an optimal state of balance and improving its performance.
• Brain Mapping (QEEG) — An in-depth visual map of the brain to discern patterns and irregularities in the brain’s functions. QEEGs are run at the beginning and mid-way point of a patient's neurofeedback treatment plan.
• HeartMath - The HeartMath EmWave Stress Relief System is a form of Biofeedback which focuses on heart wave variability and coherence. The goal of HeartMath Biofeedback is to teach you how to bring your brain, mind, body and  emotions into balanced alignment. This balanced state is called coherence.

We are lifelong advocates of alternative treatments and holistic therapies, which are designed to increase our patients’ awareness, strengthen the mind-body-spirit connection, and treat illnesses and disorders through a natural, integrated approach to care. We understand the importance of educating you on the most effective means of caring for your mind and body, allowing you to heal quickly and live a satisfying and healthy life.

These practices can be used on their own or in complement to other therapies to assist in reaching optimal health and “whole” wellness.
