We also offer therapeutic ultrasound sessions for treatment of plugged ducts.
We have officially started our drop in group - The Lactation Link Up - which meets the first and third Thursdays of the month from 8:30-9:30am. Join other lactating moms to share in the joys, struggles, and community of producing liquid gold! Little ones are welcome to attend with mommy!
Functional nutrition assessments are also available. A thorough history, food log, and evaluation including relevant laboratory exams/orders may be performed, in conjunction with muscle testing, and elimination/rotation dietary, exercise, and supplemental recommendations, based upon individualized results. Bloated? Constipated? Issues with menstruation? Feeling the symptoms of perimenopause/menopause? Schedule a consultation for more information and see how Dr. King can help you balance your hormone levels or alleviate your chronic symptoms holistically!
Despite being firmly rooted in the scientifically based realm, Dr. King experienced a Reiki treatment session in 2011 that profoundly impacted her and caused her to want to discover more about this healing art. By 2012, Dr. King had obtained her Reiki Master certification. She has worked, as well as volunteered with numerous populations, including oncology patients and those in NICU, delivering these services. In 2024, Dr. King expanded her knowledge further and completed her Reiki Master Teacher (RMT) Certification. Our Reiki cohorts are slated to begin late winter/early spring.
Additionally, Dr. King is board certified in physiotherapy. Dr. King's next endeavors in providing her patients the finest care at the Hub on 53 will be obtaining her Pregnancy and Postpartum Corrective Exercise Specialist Certification in order to address the whole picture and best serve our mommies.
Our Pathways Connect Group will also begin next month, March 9th. This meeting of like-minded parents and families will take place on the second Sunday of the month, from 11am to noon. Topics and guests may vary from month to month. See our socials for additional information!
