Satish Mohan ND, RN, has joined the team at the
Stram Center for Integrative Medicine. "I believe that health is an active process maintained through cultivating awareness, intention, lifestyle choices and therapies that support the body's innate ability to heal itself. If illness arises, its underlying cause is unique for each person and requires thorough assessment and individualized treatment. The whole person must be considered, including physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects, to facilitate healing. I hope to empower patients with understanding and tools to prevent disease and support health."
