Conditions We Focus On
Specialized Functional Integrative care for children and families looking to be optimally well and those facing complex health challenges. We look beyond symptoms to find and address root causes.
At Sancta Familia Center, we specialize in treating children, teens, and their families with chronic illness. Often patients have a diagnosis of Autism, ADHD, Anxiety, Behavior Disorder, PANS/PANDAS, or bowel problems – but many have been seeking wellness without success and without a clear diagnosis. Our functional integrative approach helps identify and address the underlying causes of illness.
