Naturopathic Doctor Milford, CT Natural Rheumatology
Services
At ArthroWell Naturopathic, we specialize in the natural treatment of arthritis and autoimmune disease. We are trained to find the cause of what triggered the disease for you. We are also trained to keep on top of all the current medical research about these diseases, and we are specially trained to treat these conditions with evidence-based natural therapies. We will work with your Rheumatologist (or other health care provider) to create the ultimate treatment plan to bring you back to pain-free health.
As a new patient of ArthroWell Naturopathic, we will take a comprehensive health history, perform a thorough physical examination, and then explain our unique protocol and approach for your case. We will explain what the latest research tells us about your diagnosis, and we will thoroughly explain how natural medicine can work for you. On your first visit, we will order lab testing to give us more information about the underlying cause, and we may recommend a series of acupuncture or physiotherapeutic treatments for pain management based on your case.
Unlike many specialists in the state of Connecticut, the Physicians at ArthroWell Naturopathic will treat your whole person in order to alleviate your arthritis and autoimmune disease. We understand that the body is a whole system that must be treated as one unit. We will not only focus on your diagnosis, but also focus on your digestion, stress, mental health, fatigue, and many other areas.

We accept Insurance!
Insurance Coverage
We accept insurance, and many patients are only required to pay their specialist co-pay. Acupuncture visits require a $20 acupuncture fee in addition to the specialist co-pay. Please check with your insurance company regarding deductibles and co-insurance, as you will be responsible for all office fees if your deductible has not yet been met or if your insurance company only covers a percentage of the fee once the deductible has been met.
Cash discounts are offered for those who do not have insurance or do not have one of our accepted insurance plans.
