Philosophy and Modalities

Dr Renfer practices from a Holistic & Vitalistic Perspective. What this means is that treatment approach is based upon the concept that the BodyHeartMindSpirit complex that makes up an individual, is inherently intelligent and equipped with that capacity to heal and live with vitality, peace, passion, & purpose. The treatment approach is to see symptoms as clues to what may be out of balance, rather than treating the symptoms as the problem. Every aspect of health is interconnected, no system operates independent of the others, thus physical, mental and emotional health must be considered and addressed. This includes environmental factors, collective consciousness factors, family/relationship/ancestral experiences and beyond.  Subconscious programs, false belief patterns, harmful thought forms must be uncovered, released and/or integrated; as these often block our sense of wellbeing, and govern the simplest of habits as well as greater life choices. 

The story we tell ourselves, about who we are, what we deserve, and we want for ourselves, is so important. This is the foundation for how we live. Most would say they want to be a healthy & successful person, a mindful & loving person, so why is there a disconnect for so many? Who do you want to be, and who do you see yourself as now? Our physical health affects our mental emotional health, our sense of self and who we are, and of course, vice versa. 

So how do we create the space for transformation, on all levels, in a grounded, realistic and effective way? 

In general, the approach incorporates several layers:

First, identifying and addressing systemic inflammation and imbalances contributing to lowered sense of vitality and mental/emotional balance. Removing the obstacles, tending to any “leaks” or deficiencies in the system. This often includes diving into Digestive Health, Hormonal Balance, HPA Axis, Detoxification pathways, Chronic Infections, Genetics and Epigenetics, etc. 

Simultaneously, incorporating mind body therapies and practices to cultivate deeper self awareness, stress management and emotional balancing. This often involves finding the balance between self love and compassion, and necessary discipline, while also cultivating the inspiration and motivation for healing and transforming in a genuine authentic way. When deciding on treatment planning, Dr. Renfer incorporates many modalities and tools.
