Philosophy
Dr. Kaltunas believes that in order to fully address the root cause of pain and illness, several levels of health must be addressed, including physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Disease often has deeper roots in trauma and belief patterns that do not serve us. Dr. Kaltunas aims to provide you with a safe environment to uncover these deeper roots, and assist you in building a strong and fertile foundation in which you can transform your health and flourish. Her passion for climbing, mountaineering, dance, meditation, and yoga keep her in tune with the rhythms and vibrations of nature so that she can be clear and focused to provide you with the best possible care. Dr. Kaltunas looks forward to joining you as a partner along your healthcare journey!
