Dr.Lisa Chavez
Born and raised in SLC, Utah as the tenth of twelve children.
She moved to Seattle to study engineering at the UW, but ended up getting
her undergraduate degree in Cell and Molecular Biology and an emphasis
in Physics.
She has done neuroendocrinology research in diabetes, a clinical interventional
pilot study of Craniosacral treatment for post traumatic stress and continues
to pursue research along with her clinical practice. She attained her Naturopathic
Doctorate degree at Bastyr University, and has studied Homeopathy
in India, Canada and the U.S.. In addition she has studied and used Ayurveda
and Tibetan Medicine in India.
She is currently writing a parenting survival book after an extended stay
in India with her 8 year old daughter, where she volunteered her skills
in the Tibetan refugee community.
Her clinical experiences in India have renewed her conviction in the power
and simplicity of naturopathic medicine to effect long lasting amelioration
for complex chronic conditions like Type II Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis,
Gastric Ulcers, Hypertension, Anxiety, and PTSD .
She particularly enjoys working with the healing power of the body to treat
adults and children, and the challenge of treating chronic body-mind conditions
like post traumatic stress, anxiety and neurohormonal imbalances. |
