Northeast Natural Medicine
Naturopathic Care in CT and Beyond
Wellness Consultant
Are you ready to begin a wellness journey but unable to be present within the State of Connecticut at the time of a consultation? Distance does not have to be a barrier to receiving guidance from a seasoned naturopathic physician. Consider being a client of the clinic and seen virtually via telehealth!
Most people that come to naturopathic physicians are interested in receiving recommendations for the real causes of their health problems, instead of the conventional suppressing of symptoms. By choosing Northeast Natural Medicine, LLC, you are embarking on a quest to empower yourself, with the knowledge and therapies that help restore your health and make you feel better.
Dr. Shawn M. Carney and any other naturopathic physicians at Northeast Natural Medicine offer in-house diagnosis and treatment, and virtual medical visits within the State of Connecticut.
When consulted outside of Connecticut, Dr. Carney and any other naturopathic physician at Northeast Natural Medicine serve as wellness consultants with expertise in naturopathic and functional medicine. Therefore, having an out-of-state restricted scope of practice, the clinic recommends maintaining a primary care physician on a client’s medical team. As such, when a person is outside the State of Connecticut at the time of a consultation, they are conceptually understood to be a ‘client’ rather than a ‘patient’.
If the recipient of a wellness consultation is located outside the licensed jurisdiction of a provider at the time of the meeting, this may limit our clinic’s ability to:
-
Bill health insurance companies for compensation
-
Order laboratory testing and diagnostic imaging*
*Our clinic may be able to furnish suggestions for mitigating the above.
The Journey
The journey for health is often not one of instant gratification. Though some therapies work quickly, other times we are trying to correct an imbalance which developed gradually over years. Your uniqueness will also influence which treatments are used. Here we consider your personal history, chemistry, genetics, energetics and more. Rest assured that any supplements recommended are from reputable manufacturers.
The Process
This quest may demand things from you. Effort. Time. Consistency. You may have to consider what aspects of your lifestyle are not in accord with your goal and face a crossroads. Help is here. Stick to the plan. Remember, there are some things the doctor cannot do for you. You may even find that your perception of what health is changes over time.
The Reward
As your body changes, so do your needs. Recommendations are often reassessed every month at the outset to further customize your treatment, and then less so as your concerns shift to more of a long term maintenance. Our bodies are dynamic, too little or too much of some nutrients may cause problems. Communication is the key. We are here to support you. Are you ready for your journey?
