Currently, I do not accept insurance for the services I provide. I will provide you with a superbill at the end of appointments upon request so that you may contact your insurance company for possible reimbursement. Please note that I do not provide superbills for lab work and I do not submit paperwork to your insurance company on your behalf. In my prior experience with insurance based functional medicine practices, I have found that in order to stay viable, it requires a high volume of patients and unnecessary use of labs, procedures and frequent appointments. This often leaves the patient receiving far less attention and care than they deserve, as well as many hidden fees the practice may not have made clear to you from the start. While cheaper based on list price, it is my opinion that that the underlying costs of this type of care cancels out those savings. I also feel this keeps the patients in a mentality of "I am sick" versus "I am healing" to have to see your health care providers this often. At The Detox Salon, you will be my main priority and deserve the attention and care that your health and wellness needs and deserve. I only make recommendations for functional medicine testing and supplements based on what we feel is in your best interest.

The Detox Salon is not a one-sized fits all practice. I provide tailored functional medicine and nutritional care that yields results for my clients. I provide tried and true, evidenced-based approaches to support you on your healing journey. My only focus as a business is to provide you with the best care possible and meet you where you are. I will partner with you every step of the way, listening to you and providing with achievable strategies to help get you there.

"The Functional Medicine model is an individualized, patient-centered, science-based approach that empowers patients and practitioners to work together to address the underlying causes of disease and promote optimal wellness. It requires a detailed understanding of each patient’s genetic, biochemical, and lifestyle factors and leverages that data to direct personalized treatment plans that lead to improved patient outcomes. By addressing root cause, rather than symptoms, practitioners become oriented to identifying the complexity of disease. They may find one condition has many different causes and, likewise, one cause may result in many different conditions. As a result, Functional Medicine treatment targets the specific manifestations of disease in each individual. Functional Medicine determines how and why illness occurs and restores health by addressing the root causes of disease for each individual.

Yes, many of my clients have successfully used their HSA and FSA funds to purchase their functional medicine consultations as well as for lab kits to look for imbalances in their gut health (SIBO, stool), thyroid, hormones and more!

No, I do not offer discovery calls. I do, however offer consultations at $25 for 60-minutes.
