Philosophy:
Dr. Badesha believes that commitment to one’s health is essential for achieving and maintaining optimal wellness. His responsibility is to help patients realize their physical, emotional, mental and spiritual potential. By blending the art of natural therapeutics with modern medical science, Dr. Badesha seeks to “identify and treat” the causes of illness in the least invasive way. This dynamic approach to health care focuses on empowering the individual to move beyond dependence on medication be it pharmaceutical or natural.

• Health is not just freedom from disease; it is the state in which body, mind and spirit are able to achieve their full potential
• Symptoms are an indication of a greater health imbalance; it is the root cause of symptoms that should be addressed
