Welcome to Village Medicine
Your Child’s Wellness
Integrative medicine is great for providing kids with the tools they need to thrive in today’s complicated world. Young bodies and minds are extremely adaptive and responsive to natural methods used in our practice. We work with your kids to maintain strong, communicative bonds so they feel empowered and supported throughout their lives.
It’s a collaborative process between you, your child, and their pediatrician in Seattle. We collaborate on information about their bodies, action steps for prevention and maintenance of health, and an awareness practice to help develop their innate empathetic biology.
Some of the principles of naturopathic and integrative medicine may be different from what you’ve been exposed to in the past, so we intentionally take the time to fully explain everything to both parents and children.
When patients understand the process and the real benefits they get from our integrative approach, they become more active participants in their own wellness journey.

What to Expect
The Pediatric Journey at Village Medicine
Consultation
At your child’s first appointment, our pediatrician in Seattle will get to know both of you. We’ll ask about your child’s medical history, prescribed medication, and any health concerns they might have.
Treatment
While your child continues to grow, they will need to be cared for to set them up for lifelong wellness. Your child’s physical, mental, and spiritual health are all important pieces of their wellness puzzle. Our team of integrative physicians and healers work together to treat your child’s unique needs in body, mind, and spirit.
Your Ongoing Journey
Every wellness journey benefits from support. Village Medicine is here to provide holistic support for every member of the family no matter where they’re at on the journey.
Vaccine Consultations
Many confusing and controversial issues are associated with the decision about whether to vaccinate your child. There are two apparent opposing sides, both of which seem to be backed up by “scientific” data
In our experience, vaccines seem to be well tolerated by healthy children in the short run. That being said, we believe it is far too complicated to evaluate the real long-term impact at this time. For this reason, we are cautious.
We believe that one size does not fit all and that a vaccination schedule should be tailored to a specific child’s exposure and risk. We use evidence-based research to help guide our patients and their family’s decisions.
You want the best for your kids. We help your children become happier, healthier, and more compassionate.
