About Us
The Art of Naturopathic Medicine
Naturopathic medicine is a distinct unique health care system that blends modern scientific knowledge with traditional and natural forms of medicine. The Naturopathic philosophy is to stimulate the healing power of the body and treat the underlying cause(s) of an individual's illness/disease. An individual's symptoms are seen as warning signals (especially the sub-clinical) of improper performance of the body and unfavorable lifestyle habits. Naturopathic medicine emphasizes working with the individual on all levels, treating their root cause(s) of the imbalance and designing a specific treatment plan for them.
Naturopathic Philosophy
First Do No Harm
The utilization of the most natural, least invasive and least toxic therapies available.
NDs will refer when the patient’s presentation is outside their scope or level of skill.
The Healing Power of Nature
Naturopathic doctors recognize and harness the body’s inherent wisdom to heal itself in order to guide patients to wellness and total health.
Identify and Treat the Causes
There is a time and place for symptom suppression, however most naturopathic patients will benefit from identifying the underlying causes of illness and removing obstacles to cure.
Doctor as Teacher
Naturopathic doctors elevate patient health literacy. Through education and a trust-based relationship, patients better understand the steps they need to take to achieve and maintain health.
Treat the Whole Person
Naturopathic doctors understand the interconnectedness of our body, our environment and our lifestyle on total health. It is only through this whole-person-based approach that NDs seek to restore balance and health.
Prevention
Naturopathic medicine affirms that it is better to prevent illness and suffering whenever possible. Through combining all six principles in order to identify potential areas of imbalance and teach patients how to get well and stay well.
Above all, Naturopathic philosophy honors the body’s innate wisdom to heal and gives the patient the tools for lifelong wellness.

Our Services
Lifestyle & Nutritional Consulting
Lifestyle & Nutritional Consulting
Lifestyle & Nutritional Consulting
Dr. Schnieder will address any lifestyle and nutritional modifications that may be contributing to the health and wellness concerns an individual is experiencing.
Some nutritional modifications may require laboratory testing (i.e. Food Sensitivities) for more specifically assess that addresses the individual's unique health plan.
Naturopathic Manipulation
Lifestyle & Nutritional Consulting
Lifestyle & Nutritional Consulting
Naturopathic manipulation is a form of physical medicine that uses gentle maneuvers to manipulate spinal segments and joints to re-establish normal movement and function.
This modality could be considered to be similar to Chiropractic adjusting but it is not, as Naturopathic Doctors are not Doctors of Chiropractic.
Botanical / Herbal Medicine
Lifestyle & Nutritional Consulting
Botanical / Herbal Medicine
Botanical medicine is the science and practice of using medicinal plants and extracts to support the body's healing ability and aid return to wellness.
Many pharmaceutical drugs have been derived from plants.
Modern botanical medicine combines evidence-based science along with centuries old experience to provide safe and effective application.
Supplementation
Drainage (not Detoxification)
Botanical / Herbal Medicine
Supplements, including nutraceuticals, are used to support the body's physiology to return it to a state of health and balance.
As there name implies, "supplements" are not replacements. They are temporarily used to re-establish physiological function. Once function is returned and holds, their purpose is complete.

Drainage (not Detoxification)
We live in an industrialized world where we are constantly exposed to a variety of potentially harmful chemicals. Chemicals found in the air that we breathe, the food and drink we consume, the surfaces we touch and the products that we use. It is no longer a question of if we are toxic, but a question of how toxic.

We live in an industrialized world where we are constantly exposed to a variety of potentially harmful chemicals. Chemicals found in the air that we breathe, the food and drink we consume, the surfaces we touch and the products that we use. It is no longer a question of if we are toxic, but a question of how toxic.
Your body is constantly working to neutralize and eliminate toxins. In order to do this, the body requires a pathway to send waste outside of the body. These pathways of elimination are called emunctories. An emunctory is any tissue capable of allowing excretions to exit the body. The majority of elimination occurs via the primary emunctories (liver, kidneys, digestive tract, lungs and sweat glands). If the primary emunctories are not working efficiently the secondary emunctories will kick in to aid in elimination and to prevent symptoms of toxicity.
Drainage: A physiologic action that facilitates the body to eliminate toxins, without forcing the body to eliminate beyond its’ physiologic limits. Simply stated, it is the process of recognition, neutralization and removal of toxic compounds, natural and unnatural, from the body by opening the emunctories and then discharging the toxic accumulations.

FREQUENCY
What is Frequency?
We are “Electrical” Beings (Living Energy Fields).
Our bodies are in constant motion within and with everything around us.
We are Vibrating and creating Energy.
Vibrations are rhythms.
These Vibrational rhythms generate electromagnetic Energy waves oscillating on their own natural Frequencies.
What happens when our natural Frequencies are “disrupted”?
What happens when the level of disruption keeps increasing (EMFs)?
We become ELECTRICALLY IMBALANCED!!!
What are EMFs (Electromagnetic Fields)?
EMFs are invisible electric fields that influence the human body. We are continually bombarded with increasing amounts of EMFs every day.
Low-frequency magnetic fields induce circulating currents within the human body. The strength of these currents depends on the intensity of the outside magnetic field. If sufficiently large, these currents could cause stimulation of nerves and muscles or affect other biological processes.

EMF World "Growth"
There are both beneficial and harmful Frequencies.
The most beneficial Frequency is the Frequency of the Earth (7.83Hz) known as the Schumann Resonance (“The Pulse of the Earth”).
The Schumann Resonance is IDENTICAL to the alpha waves of our brain.
Alpha waves do the following:
▪ induce feelings of calm
▪ reduce stress, anxiety and depression
▪ increase creativity
▪ enhance performance
▪ support our immune system
▪ enhance your ability to absorb new information
What happens when the 7.83Hz Frequency is removed from us?
Rutger Wever’s bunker circadian (sleep) experiments involved individuals living in a bunker (no Schumann Frequency underground) for around 2 weeks. Physical (sick, headaches) and mental (anxiety, depression) health suffered. Wever reintroduced the 7.83Hz with a magnetic pulse generator and symptoms either dramatically reduced or stopped with a sense of well-being restored.
What happens when harmful EMFs over-ride our natural, beneficial Frequencies (especially 7.83Hz)?
What are the Symptoms of EMF Exposure?
Why Balance Your Frequency?
We DO NOT live in a world with no harmful EMFs. Matter of fact, we live in a world saturated with EMFs designed to keep us unwell (“electrically imbalanced”).
Being electrically imbalanced will result in our bodies, minds and spirit being unable to heal and evolve.
To fully heal ourselves, we must address all aspects (visible and invisible) that impact our wellness.
Therefore, we must reduce (if possible remove) and protect ourselves from harmful EMFs.
What Can We Do To Mitigate EMF Exposure?
Removal / Reduction
1. Cellular phone:
● Minimize holding it and keep 1 foot away from body and at least
5-15 mm from your head and no more than 6 minutes/day use.
● Do Not use a protective case. It increases radiation absorbed by 20-70%.
● Put on AIRPLANE MODE when not using it or if using it but do not need Wi-Fi.
2. Home Wi-Fi and others:
● Turn off whenever possible especially when sleeping.
● Use EMF mitigation equipment (Total Shield, Faraday products, etc.)
3. General Health:
● Outdoor immersion (Grounding / Nature).
● Eat REAL FOOD and drink CLEAN WATER.
● Remove heavy metals and support properly
functioning detoxification.
Protection
Elevate your Vibrational Energy:
● Spiritual Relationship with God.
● Practice and Walk in Love, Thankfulness / Gratitude,
Compassion, Humility and Generosity.
● Establish and Maintain Healthy Environment:
▪ Relationships
▪ Physical well-being
▪ Breathing exercises
Use Frequency Support to re-align the imbalances the harmful
