Have you ever taken medicine to treat symptoms you were experiencing but felt like it was just a quick fix and didnt really get to the root of the problem? After taking the medicine, did you find your symptoms returned? That is the thought behind a new wellness initiative making way in Highlands County.<\/p>\n
Natural homeopathic medicines, thermographic imaging, hormone therapy and massage may be the missing link to your total health. All of these services can be found under one roof, though the businesses arent connected. Even though a couple of the businesses have been around for years in our community, you may think the methods are new age, when in fact many of these methods have been used by patients for a long time.<\/p>\n
Located at 2914 Kenilworth Blvd. in Sebring, Customized Wellness, Art of Message and Knowledge 4 Life Imaging all operate under one roof, but are separate businesses with the same goal: to help patients find health and happiness through natural methods.<\/p>\n
Customized Wellness is owned by Amanda Lucero and provides treatment methods that are tailored to each patients needs.<\/p>\n
This type of medicine is functional medicine and may treat ailments such as anxiety, depression, adrenal fatigue, fibromyalgia, thyroid dysfunction, weight loss and osteoporosis. Most of these treatments are addressed through the evaluation of hormones in the body.<\/p>\n
This type of medicine is considered alternative by most insurance companies, but it really gets to the true root of the issue in order to heal. Our goal is to make you well and not just treat the symptoms of the issue, Lucero said. Sometimes even acne, facial hair in women, and low libido may all be caused by a hormonal imbalance.<\/p>\n
Lucero holds a traditional medical license and works as a nurse practitioner when she isnt at Customized Wellness. She is holds a masters in medical science from the University of South Florida graduate program, which focuses on the treatment of patients through more natural methods such as what Lucero practices.<\/p>\n
My class was the first to graduate through this program, which I am very proud of, Lucero said. There are 51 physicians and four nurse practitioners in the whole country who have this degree.<\/p>\n
