Yang Sheng: The Art of Nourishing Life

This concept in Chinese medicine is not just about treating disease once it has manifested. It’s about cultivating life and living well. This is beyond treating disease and beyond prevention. We nourish that which creates life so you can not only live free of disease, but be in harmony with yourself and live radiantly. This is yang sheng.

Maybe for you that means excelling in your career, or traveling. Or being the best mom you can be. Or pursuing your creative endeavours. Or reaching peak athletic performance. Whatever your ‘thing’ is that brings you joy and motivates you to get out of bed in the morning, yang sheng can help you do it with more vibrancy. We not only aim to balance your physical and mental health, but to nourish and bring harmony your entire being.

Rooted in ancient wisdom on how to live in tune with nature and support your health and wellbeing, this approach is not complicated. Often, it's very simple and practical. And you don’t need to go live on a homestead in the forest or quit your job and go on a self-discovery retreat to tap into it.

You can access this wisdom and approach to have better health, age more gracefully, gain more peace of mind, focus and clarity on where to put your energy. Develop a more intuitive connection with your body and support your health by aligning with the rhythms and cycles in Nature.

Sugandhi is a true healer. She has helped me immensely - I can’t say enough wonderful things about her. Sugandhi helped clear my acne and balance my skin, she helped regulate my periods and helped me get pregnant. Sugandhi is helping my body reach optimal health, and most importantly she is helping me to understand, respect and love my body and myself. Not only is she talented but she is such a warm, kind, thoughtful, lovely, knowledgeable and professional individual. I highly recommend seeing her if you are looking to improve your health and wellness in any way!

Frequently Asked Questions

How are appointments conducted?

All appointments are conducted online over Zoom within Practice Better. This platform is HIPPA compliant and encrypted, protecting your identity and private health information.

Can I pay for appointments as I go?ed?

We do not offer a pay-as-you go, single appointment model. If you want to try functional medicine out, I offer a discovery call to see if we’re the right fit. The only exception is for nutrigenetic genetic testing - this is a stand alone appointment.

Healing takes time and commitment, which is why I work with a package model. That way, we are both committed to your success. No wasted money or time, no starting and not following through. It also gest some skin in the game on your part, which I have found motivates clients to keep going.

Can I use insurance?

Not at this time. The ideAt this time, most insurance does not cover the broader range of advanced functional tests or the consultations. However, many clients are able to pay with their FSA/HSA.

Do you offer a payment plan?

Yes, monthly payment plans are available. We can discuss this in the Hormone Harmony Session.

Will I have to buy herbs or supplements?

Most patients receive some kind of herb or supplement reccomendation. These can be ordered with a discount through my online dispensary, or you can shop around yourself. I only provide the highest, thereputic quality herbs and supplements that are free from fillers and adulturants. Typically the more effort that is put into the meal plans, less supplmentation is needed.
