WHO WE ARE:
We are an interdisciplinary network of committed, caring and compassionate professionals who are ready to build a partnership with you in your child’s journey towards health and wellness.
Regular visits to the doctor, up to date vaccinations and adhering to dietary recommendations are important components of a journey toward wellness. However, studies have shown that these things are necessary, but not sufficient. Living well requires a commitment to a lifestyle that addresses all of the components of a good life. This includes actively addressing social influencers that we call The 7-Disciplines of Wellness (7-DW) (commonly known as The Social Determinants of Health).
WHAT WE OFFER
Restorative Pediatric Consults™ provides a complete assessment of an individual’s health status by applying a standardized 7-DW tool. The result is a customized whole lifespan road map to wellness. Together, our interdisciplinary team of practitioners and community networks help you navigate your child's journey towards health and wellness.
We use a strength-based approach to childhood behavior modification by helping parents discover and identify their child’s strengths. Those strengths guide the development of a customized action plan to address areas of weaknesses.
From early childhood and throughout late adolescence, Restorative Pediatric Consults works with you and your Primary Care Pediatrician to support your child's wellness.
HOW ARE WE UNIQUE
Restorative Pediatrics provides a holistic, community based wellness network designed and managed by members and their health and wellness care network. Our customized family centered approach to wellness provides care that is:
- Preventative

- Regenerative
PREVENTATIVE:
Pre-Conception Counseling
The negative impact on prenatal and perinatal development of the fetus resulting from environmental and Emotional stressors and toxins is clear. Evidence points to the impact of these same forces on both men and women at the epigenetic level. Epigenetic gene modification leading to changes in gene expression contribute to the development of chronic disease. These epigenetic changes are heritable by way of their impact on ovarian and sperm genetic signature. The health of both egg and sperm are crucial to reduce the incidence of childhood and adult onset illnesses that compromise both quality of life and reduce its longevity.
We tap into otherwise missed opportunities in health care encounters, to prepare, educate and model the lifestyle needed for men and women of pre-conception age to to reach optimal health.
