A Natural and Preventative Approach to Your Child’s Health

Michael Allen, MD, FAAP, ABIHM, ACAM
offers customized care by combining western medicine with natural and complementary alternatives, to offer your family the best of both worlds. He is triple board certified in Pediatrics, Integrative Holistic Medicine, and one of only two pediatricians in the United States to be internationally board certified in Anthroposophic Medicine.

He specializes in:
• Children/Adolescents with complex or difficult issues
• Children/Adolescents that have failed conventional medical treatment
• Families who want a more natural and holistic approach to their health care

With over 20 years of practice, he prefers strengthening and balancing the body with natural remedies and nutrition when possible, rather than medicating to simply suppress symptoms. His practice includes families from the entire West Coast who are looking for individualized holistic health care that addresses not only the physical symptoms but the emotional, social, environmental and spiritual aspects of health.

Craniosacral Therapy, Emotional Balancing Acupressure and Heart Centered Therapy

Linda Lazar Allen, CAMT
offers gentle holistic treatments for adults and children.   She brings to her craniosacral therapy practice advanced training with Bruno Chikly in the brain and nervous system, and specializes in Emotional Healing.

Her work is a whole-person approach, deeply acknowledging the inter-connectedness of  all planes: emotionally, spiritually and physically.  She follows the body’s natural wisdom, facilitating a process of deep intrinsic reorganization across the body’s tissues, fluid matrix and emotional layers, bringing about both physiological and psycho-emotional change.

The simplicity of this therapy is its beauty. Linda creates a safe space for traumatic experiences to emerge and resolves smoothly with reliving them or being overwhelming. Safe. Nurturing. Healing.
