Nutrition plays a pivotal role in overall health and well-being, shaping how we feel today and in the future. The saying "we are what we eat" holds true, as our long-term health is influenced by our dietary choices over the years. The entire team at 2BWell emphasizes the importance of making healthy choices now to improve your state of health in the years to come.
Even with a balanced diet, it can be difficult to get all the nutrients needed for optimal health. Our team provides essential knowledge about supplementation and explains why certain nutrients may be lacking in everyday diets. We also offer various options to help you meet your daily nutritional needs through high-quality supplements from clinically approved manufacturers worldwide, backed by a 100% conditional guarantee policy.
At 2BWell, our naturopathic doctors are ready to guide clients through personalized coaching programs that focus on five key foundations:
We use a combination of tools such as health and lifestyle questionnaires, food journals, and functional evaluations to assess specific nutrient needs and create a customized plan for each client.
The functional evaluation is a hands-on assessment that utilizes reflex points on the body to accurately determine nutrient deficiencies and support optimal function. This approach helps our nutritionists develop targeted nutritional plans that address each client's unique health requirements.
Nutritional consultations typically last between 30 minutes and two hours, depending on the complexity of your needs. Your naturopath will recommend an appropriate treatment plan based on a thorough assessment of your health, ensuring the approach is tailored to your individual condition.
As one who had never tried eastern medicine, I was apprehensive about trying something so...foreign. Siamak Shirazi has shared his years of practice and knowledge to help me physically as well as emotionally. He has gone above and beyond what a typical practitioner offers. Siamak and his friendly staff have been a huge support for me since I first walked through the door!
This clinic is awesome! Can't recommend the team up at 2BWELL enough! I lost my previous healthcare provider suddenly and they adapted my healthcare to the 2BWELL clinic in Portland Oregon and they have worked closely and quickly with my case. I really am glad to be in their care! I would recommend them and Dr.Huffman in particular for primary care,mental healthcare and hormone management. I'm glad to have this clinic in my corner during a tough transition period.
I had been dealing with major health issues for months in regard to my digestion. Doctor Hoffman put me on an anti inflammatory diet and within days I found the relief I had been searching for. I am so impressed with both the knowledge and genuine care that this team takes to truly hear you. In a profession at times that just views you as science it was nice to be understood before diagnosed.
We found 2bWell when one of my children could not get help from western docs. Turns out they had a genetic enzyme deficiency that was easily solved with supplements. Our family began working with Dr. Brush at the clinic. For myself, I've experienced a reduction in sickness overall - it's been a good experience for me and my family.
Being newly diagnosed with cancer was both stressful and tiring. Acupuncture treatments have alleviated the fatigue, reduced the anxiety, and given me the energy to improve my health. Dr. Siamak Shirazi's caring, treatments and suggestions for integrated mind/body wellness have been a wonderful balance to support, and augment the standard westernized treatments of blood counts and CT scans. I am feeling stronger in facing this challenge.
Dr. Huffman is such a breath of fresh air. I have been struggling physically, mentally, and emotionally just trying to find the right support system and I've gone from doctor to doctor looking for it. Well, I'm looking no further. Brooke makes you feel safe and comfortable and listened to. She's extremely knowledgeable and she goes above and beyond to find the right answers for YOU. I've not had a healthcare provider be so helpful, supportive, and well-rounded. If you're looking for a new ND, go see her now!!
I am a 46 year old woman that has been under acupuncture treatment with Siamak Shirazi for over 10 years. He has helped me considerably with tendonitis and shoulder pain associated with computer work over the years in addition to pre-menopausal symptoms. He has taken the time to find out my areas of discomfort and concern and has done a great job of working on my pain in a very comfortable, soothing environment at the 2BWell Clinic. In addition, I have recently been under the care of Julie Brush, NP and she has helped me set up an easy to follow detoxification program.
It is very nice that Siamak has set-up a place where I can go to get the alternative treatment by well-educated ... [see Testimonial page for more]
Frustrated, this was my mental state during the fall of 2009 and it only got worse after Thanksgiving. Suddenly, I saw myself at 245 pounds, 5'10" tall and about to turn 38 years old. Wanting to make a change, earlier in the year I had a physical by my primary care physician. All the blood work was fine and other then being too heavy; his advice was cut back on calories and workout more. I tried and other then getting more and more frustrated, I did not lose a pound.
I suffered a heel injury and reached out to Siamak Shirazi for treatments. During the second treatment session I shared with him my frustration on trying to lose weight and asked for his advice. I provided Siamak a ... [see Testimonial page for more]
I started at 2bwell about three years ago when I felt run down and sick. I went to Siamak and the acupuncture treatment he gave really helped my symptoms. In addition, he provided me with a natural throat spray. Preventing illness is certainly preferable to being sick and fighting an existing problem. Siamak encouraged me to come back and work on my immune system. Weekly appointments started off my new health regimen and then as I got healthier we tapered my appointments to better maintain my health.
I used to be a person who got several colds in a season and those colds often developed into a bacterial infection. Western Medicine only offered condolences and antibiotics, but no ... [see Testimonial page for more]
In late 2001 I came down with ulcerative colitis. I was under the care of a gastroenterologist and taking pills that hadn't been tested on patients my age. As my condition got worse and worse I couldn't go to work or shopping without problems. It also ended my visiting out of town friends because of the embarrassment. I thought the rest of my life would be like this with the possibility of having my colon removed. I was taking up to 12 pills a day and had been put on Prednisone two different times. My condition just got worse. I finally decided that the treatment wasn't working and I needed to change directions.
I mentioned to my co-workers that I thought of trying an alternative ... [see Testimonial page for more]
