- Irritable Bowel SyndromeIn addition to energetic modalities, Dr. Swanson offers a unique specialty in intravenous vitamin and mineral infusions (IV therapy). IV therapy allows the practitioner to transport nutrients into the body that would otherwise be hindered by malabsorption, poor digestion, and other maladies. Through this creative process, nutrient deficiencies are instantly corrected and patients often experience relatively quick turnarounds with otherwise hard-to-treat conditions, such as chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn’s disease, and ulcerative colitis. It is also a wonderful supportive therapy for those suffering from cancer, multiple sclerosis, autoimmune disease, hepatitis, anxiety, and depression. Each IV is formulated using traditional recipes designed for specific conditions, modifying nutrients to meet the needs of the patient.

We respect all perspectives in medicine and combine the best aspects of each to create synergy. Integrative medicine offers a new perspective that has been missing in cancer care, and it may just be a new perspective that is needed to make a real difference in the fight against cancer.
