Frequently Asked Questions
What is Integrative Medicine?
At Restore Health Collaborative, we believe your care should be as unique as you are. That’s why integrative medicine looks at your whole health…not just your symptoms.
By blending traditional medical treatments with supportive therapies like nutrition, supplements, physical therapy, acupuncture, and lifestyle changes, we create a plan designed just for you.
Our goal is to help you feel balanced, supported, and in control of your health. Together, we’ll focus on restoring your body’s natural ability to heal, so you can enjoy lasting wellness and a better quality of life.
How do I know if your clinic is for me?
We might be a good match for your care if:
- You want your treatment to focus on your whole self (mind, body, and spirit) not just a list of symptoms. We believe the body is an amazing, interconnected system, and true healing happens when we care for it as a whole.
- You value a real relationship with your provider, built on trust and understanding, not a rushed 5-minute appointment.
- You’re open to lifestyle changes, like nutrition, stress management, and natural therapies, that can support and strengthen your overall health.
At Restore Health Collaborative, we walk beside you on your health journey, offering support, guidance, and care that sees you as a whole person.
How do I know if your clinic isn’t a good fit for me?
We might not be a good fit if:
- You prefer to stick with only conventional medicine and aren’t interested in exploring complementary or holistic therapies.
- You’re looking for a quick fix rather than a comprehensive, long-term approach to your health and wellness.
We believe true healing takes time, teamwork, and a whole-person approach. If you share that vision, we’d love to partner with you on your journey.
Can I still take traditional medications and see your clinic?
Absolutely – we believe in balance.
While we recognize that modern medicine often relies too heavily on pharmaceuticals, we also value the important role they play when used appropriately. Our philosophy is to recommend traditional medications when they are truly needed, and to complement them with supplements and natural therapies when appropriate. By combining the best of both worlds, we create safe, effective, and personalized treatment plans that support your overall health and long-term wellness.
Does insurance cover integrative medicine?
Coverage varies depending on your insurance provider and plan. In most cases, office visits and standard lab tests are covered. We partner with LabCorp and other labs to help reduce costs if something isn’t covered by insurance.
Specialty labs (including neurotransmitter testing, advanced gastrointestinal testing, organic acid testing, or heavy metal testing) are often not included in insurance coverage. If you need these tests, we’ll always provide you with the costs upfront so you can make an informed decision before moving forward.
What does the name “Restore Health Collaborative” mean?
We know it’s a long name—but we also believe it’s the perfect one to describe who we are and what we do. At Restore Health Collaborative, our goal is simple: to help you restore your health and maintain it through a variety of disciplines and treatments.
In today’s world, being busy, overcommitted, and constantly “on the go” often leads us to neglect our own well-being. We see health as a continuum, and we want to walk alongside you on your journey…supporting you in reclaiming balance and building resilience.
The word Collaborative is just as important. We believe healthcare works best when patients and providers work together. You know your body better than anyone, and when that knowledge combines with our medical expertise, we can create the best plan for your unique needs. This partnership is at the heart of everything we do, guiding you toward long-term health and optimal wellness.
