We specialize in finding and treating the root causes of your health challenges – as opposed to simply treating your symptoms. It’s important to note that two people may experience similar sets of symptoms for completely different reasons – that’s why it is vital to determine the root causes of your health issues before designing the most effective treatment strategy for you.  We use a wide variety of diagnostic tools and treatments to remove any potential obstacles to healing that may be present on the neurological, structural, biochemical, and energetic levels.  We strive to bring the whole person back into a state of homeostasis.

Many of our patients have experienced chronic and complex health issues for many months, or even years, before they arrive at Hearthstone to begin a holistic approach to becoming well.   And while most notice some improvements in their condition within the first few visits, it is important to recognize that healing – much like becoming ill -- is a process that occurs over time, rather than an isolated event.  Synergies in the healing process are facilitated by correcting imbalances within the body’s physical structure, nervous system and biochemistry and by taking a whole person perspective” when developing a customized treatment plan for each patient.  

Dr. Jac Daccardi practices an individualized, integrative approach to care.  We synthesize many systems, including Applied Kinesiology, which is a state-of-the-art diagnostic tool that uses the body’s electrical system to identify potential causes of health issues, and what is called “Functional Medicine.”  Functional Medicine is a personalized approach that seeks to assess and improve the function of all of the body’s systems.  We also offer a comprehensive list of functional laboratory tests that are rarely available in a traditional medical setting.  In many cases, these tests can help to quantify the extent to which essential processes of the body are functioning adequately.
