OUR TEAM OF PHYSICIANS, nutritionists and nurses use a comprehensive approach to health and healing. The physicians are Board Certified and have extensive training in functional, integrative and nutritional medicine and our nutritionists have specialized training in using food as medical therapy. The practice of medicine is ever changing, and at The UltraWellness Center in Lenox, MA, we use existing and emerging technologies in both diagnosis and treatment. We follow the latest research, and constantly update our methods as new, scientifically based therapies and tests become available.
