Amy Kelchner, ND

t to live in. I have been a bodyworker for 22 years, and licensed as a naturopathic doctor since 2003. My primary focus is on the intersection of body, mind, and spirit. What I’ve observed over the years is that illness is a multi-layered thing. It is often the body, in its wisdom, telling us of a deeper imbalance, and offering up an opportunity, should we choose to take it, for profound, integrated healing. Because of this, I offer holistic, whole-system healing sessions that integrate many aspects of being human: chemical, structural, emotional, and spiritual. My passion lies in understanding the core of a person’s suffering and stimulating deep healing from that place, where it can ripple out to all aspects of their life. I use craniosacral therapy, visceral manipulation, guided imagery, and shamanic healing practices in addition to traditional naturopathic care such as lab analysis, diet, supplements, herbs, and homeopathy. I have found that the biochemical and nutritional therapies are more effective after doing somatic exploration and trauma release through gentle hands-on therapy and meditation. My work is especially beneficial for people with chronic or recurrent concerns such as pain and fatigue, anxiety and depression, migraine headaches, chronic digestive complaints and the like. Having been in practice for so many years, I am comfortable with the wide range of problems a primary care practice brings, at the same time that I’m focusing my practice on this mind-body place. If you’re curious about this approach, I would love to work with you. I offer a free 15-minute inquiry call if you'd like to chat with me, and I take many forms of insurance.
