Cherise believes in the power of detailed personalized treatment plans. She uses nutritional supplements, and dietary and lifestyle recommendations to assist traditional medicine in the treatment and prevention of chronic disease. Areas of specific focus are hormonal optimization, preventing age-related memory loss, detoxification, reestablishing gastrointestinal health, and the role of stress in chronic disease. Cherise encourages balance in life, believing that true wellness comes from a combination of physical, emotional, and spiritual health.
