What We Treat

What We Treat

Adrenal Disorders

Adrenal disorders are something that we specialize whole-heartedly in treating. The Adrenal Glands are positioned in your body on top of each of your kidneys. They are something that you can’t live without. The main function of Adrenal Glands is to produce hormones such as Cortisol, which is useful in helping you handle stress and sex hormones.

When conditions arise related to the Adrenal Glands it’s usually because they are either under-producing or over-producing hormones. This can cause many issues in the body from which you could suffer from including Cushing’s syndrome and Addison’s disease. Since it’s our philosophy to target the root causes of your disorder, we seek out treatment revolving around genetic mutations, infections, tumors, and even medicine. Remember, as a practice that takes into account all phases of your body including lifestyle, even medicine may be a cause of problems.

Allergies

Allergies in the human body occur when foreign substances come into contact with your immune system. You see your immune system contains “Antibodies.” These exist to help protect you from bad substances, which could make you sick. They will even react to substances that invade your body even though they’re not harmful. These could include common causes of allergies including pollen, pet dander, and more.

When your antibodies attempt to block these substances, an allergic reaction is produced which could result in anything from a rash, to hives, or worse, an immediate trip to the emergency room. When it comes to treatment of allergies, we take an approach that combines conventional and holistic medicines. We’ll also ask you about your current diet. We have achieved much success in the past with patients by simply helping them adjust to a new diet.

Alopecia or Hair Loss

Alopecia is commonly known as “baldness.” It’s so common in fact that over 30% of some people suffer hair loss by age 30 and it rises by 50% at age 50. Most people typically look at it as a sign of aging, not a disease. There are many reasons for hair loss among men and women. Factors could include hormonal deficiencies, nutritional deficiencies, prescription drugs, and chemical treatments for cosmetic purposes, and of course; stress.

Dr.Harold Clark specializes in a number of treatment options and will present you with the best course of action to take. The best part about our practice is that we can treat many symptoms that can’t be treated through conventional medicine. Our focus on wellness covers your mind, body and soul. Whether it’s a physical issue in your body or mental agitation, we can help you regain lost hair.

Arthritis & Joint Pain

Many people in New Rochelle, or Westchester County suffer from Arthritis and Joint pain. The problem that actually occurs is when bone cartilage wears away. This causes the bone to rub against other bones, which can be very painful since your lacking that layer of protective cartilage. There are a number of conventional methods we could use to help ease the pain or treat your conditions and there are also a number of alternative integrative methods, which are effective.

To be clear, we only use methods that are proven effective through science. There are just too many products out there that advertise “miracle cures” and none of them are backed up by real results. Our office can recommend legitimate vitamins and nutritional supplements, which can help, treat as well as ease the pain of conditions such as Rheumatoid Arthritis or Osteoarthritis.

Autoimmune Disorders, Lupus, MS, and Others

An Autoimmune Disease is a nightmare. The way it works is that antibodies, which develop in your immune system, decide that your healthy cells are considered foreign and should be destroyed. There are over 80 different types of autoimmune diseases that can leave you reeling with sickness and plenty of causes. The most common of which could include bacterial infections, viruses, chemical irritants or environmental irritants. The most common parts of the body that we see suffer from ailments as a result of autoimmune disease include skin, muscles, joints, red blood cells, connective tissue, and Endocrine Glands.

Brain Function, Memory Disorders, and Mental Vigor

A loss of brain function whether small or large could be annoying at the least and life changing at severe levels. We specialize in treating patients that are experiencing a current loss of Brain function at any level. In less severe cases, many mental ailments can be relieved or helped by a change in lifestyle or therapy. Stress is often a big reason for factors such as a loss in memory or mental vigor. At these levels, we will work with you through all phases of your current lifestyle to determine the best appropriate treatment methods.

Constipation

Constipation basically means a change in a person’s daily bowel habits. This is usually a decrease in the daily amount as well as pain-passing stool. If you go a day or two without passing a bowel movement, then you are constipated. There are many causes for this and the most common have to do with your diet.

infertility treatment

For women trying to conceive a child, it can be an emotionally difficult process. Aside from the conventional treatment methods we provide to help increase fertility in women, we have found that a few alternative techniques can enhance the results. Acupuncture involves placing tiny needles throughout the body and this is primarily done to reduce stress.

It may be no surprise to learn that stress can have an effect on fertility. Mind and body techniques such as deep breathing, guided imagery as well as cognitive behavioral therapy has also shown excellent results when combined with traditional treatment methods.

Insomnia & Sleep Disorders

Although there are a number of drugs in today’s marketplace that are effective in treating insomnia, they have been proven to be unhealthy for the short term and possibly fatal in the long-term. Drugs such as Ambien has been linked to many awful events such as accidental overdoses, early death, sleepwalking and much more.

There are plenty of alternative supplements that are healthy and don’t produce the same ill-advised side affects that the conventional drugs do. We like to discuss treatment remedies such as Valerian root, Chamomile, Melatonin and more. These have been proven effective and are far safer than conventional Narcotics available today.

We use approaches that include Prophylactic treatment with herbal medicine, drainage and other Homeopathic therapies.

We’re also well versed in writing the right prescriptions for antibiotics depending on the individual. In any case, Lyme disease can become serious and a chronic problem which requires serious treatment.

Parasites

We’re betting the phrase “Parasites” is giving you the shivers right now and it should. They are able to find their way into the human body through unfiltered water, uncooked food and other means. Parasites rob your organs of key nutrients used to stay healthy and regulate your body’s balance. Many conventional doctors are not trained in eliminating parasites so the standard protocol is to most always provide toxic anti-parasitic medication.

It’s the toxicity of this medication that kills the parasites but it will also affect your body in a number of negative ways. You can avoid this route by obtaining alternative, natural treatment methods that are useful at eliminating parasites. These include Neem, Thyme, Cloves, Wormwood, Marshmallow Root, Cinchona and much more. We can help restore your body’s health and keep those parasites out for good!

Thyroid Disorders & Subclinical Hypothyroidism

As alternative practitioners, it’s our key objective to try to resolve the underlying causes of a thyroid disorder rather than just mask the symptoms with medicine. Poor nutrition and stress are two of the largest culprits when it comes to thyroid diseases. We have seen symptoms reversed when we can get a patient to commit to a slight lifestyle change.

This would include a change in food intake (Natural foods high in Vitamin B, Organic foods), daily exercise, potential therapy, as well as relaxation techniques such as deep breathing. We would also focus in on emotional issues that may be triggering these problems in your body. Our chief concern is of fixing your mind, body and soul.
