ABOUT US
Family 1st, was inspired by a vision of integrative medicine for our patients. The treatment of patients through spiritual, emotional, mental, in addition to the physical means are so crucial that we are inspired to offer this in one place for all our patients.
Family Medical Provider will assess for acute and chronic illness. While Occupational Therapist evaluates any deficiencies occurring that could be the cause of everyday aches and pains, imbalances, weakness, dizziness. These can be caused by visual perceptual problems, cognitive (thinking) skills, or sensory processing problems.
In addition, we have included Speech Therapy services in our facility. This will make it so much easier for families to find resolution for very common problems in the developmental stages of growing children.
​
The general principle is that all aspects of the patient are considered in treating illness, which include natural and less invasive alternatives when possible. Like with IV Therapy when we choose, after lab results, what is deficient in your individual body. IV Therapy infusions are an easier and faster way to achieve health and balance in your body.
​
Family 1 st will address all these integrated parts and create a plan of care that is best for you.
