Multidisciplinary holistic healthcare provider Northport Wellness Center’s mission is “to direct people to the realization that life and healing come from within and that ultimately, the promotion and maintenance of health is superior to the treatment of disease.” 

Its philosophy stands on three principles: 

Be thorough.

This means all practitioners will listen to their patients and learn everything about them, from their daily environment to their family medical history.

Be thoughtful. 

After understanding the individual as a whole, wellness providers create a customized plan to improve overall wellness. 

Be thankful. 

The Northport Wellness Center staff is grateful to be part of your journey to a more positive and healthy lifestyle.

These values guide team members and partners in providing holistic family medicine to all patients. 

The American Holistic Health Association defines holistic medicine as “the art and science of healing that addresses the whole person—body, mind, and spirit. The practice of holistic medicine integrates conventional and alternative therapies to prevent and treat disease, and most importantly, promote optimal health.” It’s designed to treat patients physically, nutritionally, emotionally, spiritually, and beyond. 

To consider all parts of a person, Northport Wellness Center offers a lengthy list of services including, but not limited to:

Acupuncture 

Acupuncture involves inserting thin needles into specific points around the body corresponding with associated organs, emotions or feelings. This can reduce stress and pain, relieve headaches, improve the immune system, and increase energy. 

Chiropractic

Northport Wellness Center’s chiropractic services focus on your physical well-being. Adjustments are performed on various parts of the body to relieve pain in the neck or back, improve joint mobility and nerve function, and more. 

Clinical Hypnosis

Clinical hypnosis improves a person’s physical, mental, and emotional health. Northport Wellness Center’s Joanne Ferman, CCH, CPC, has helped clients with a variety of needs including weight loss, fertility, confidence, sports improvement, stress, anxiety, goal achievement, and allergies through this therapy.

Holistic Health Services

Northport Wellness Center partnered with Holistic Health Solutions of Long Island, which provides quantum biofeedback, colon hydrotherapy, infrared saunas, raindrop therapy, and zero balancing therapy. These services promote relaxation, provide detoxification, support the immune system, and improve mental focus and concentration. Combine each of these techniques and you’ll have promoted the health of your soul, body, and mind. 

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Using 100 percent pressurized oxygen, hyperbaric oxygen therapy works to improve your physical being. Alliance partner Hyperbaric Medical Solutions provides this service, which can increase blood flow, regenerate tissue, reduce inflammation, promote stem cell mobilization, and accelerate the body’s ability to heal itself. 

Nutrition Programs

Northport Wellness Center offers a variety of nutrition programs to ensure all patients eat healthy, which leads to other benefits. 

Detox diets require patients to eliminate unhealthy foods and substances, and take vitamin supplements—enabling patients to lose weight, improve overall health, relieve stress, and increase energy levels. Ketogenics focuses on transitioning to a low-carb, moderate-protein, high-in-healthy-fat diet. This lifestyle change can lead to weight loss, improved energy and mental focus, and greater endurance. Other options include paleo, specific carbohydrate regimens, gut and psychology syndrome, and Whole30.

Vitamin drips, which can be added to nutritional programs, provide fast-acting nutrients straight into the bloodstream through intravenous, boosting energy and the immune system, preventing asthma attacks, and improving heart health. 

Medical Marijuana

Northport Wellness Center teamed up with Dr. Amir Herman of Natural Pain Solutions to provide medical marijuana to reduce physical pain in patients suffering from one of various approved conditions, ranging from chronic pain to cancer. 

Reiki Healing

A technique used to reduce stress and relax, reiki healing is just one of the meditative approaches utilized at Northport Wellness Center. This brings inner peace and balance, enabling patients to live more productive and focused lives. 

Thermography

While mammograms determine if a patient has developed a tumor in their breast, thermography acts as a warning mechanism. This breast screening alerts women up to eight years prior to visible symptoms. Knowing of potential health problems early on enables patients to make the necessary lifestyle changes to prevent their progression. 

Northport Wellness Center also offers pediatric and primary healthcare, podiatry, neuro visual therapy, neurofeedback, psychiatry, psychology, personal training, social work, trigger point therapy and more to ensure their patients’ every needs are cared for. 

When new patients come to the center, they are evaluated using the aforementioned guiding principles. This determines the type of treatment or combination of services necessary to achieve overall wellness. 

The vast array of services, care, and time practitioners put into each and every patient enables the facility to provide the best holistic care. Contact us to learn more.
