Philosophy

Dr. Koenig uses a holistic or "whole person approach". This approach to wellness means looking for underlying causes of any disturbance or disruption (which may or may not be causing symptoms at the time) and make whatever interventions and lifestyle adjustments that would optimize the conditions for normal function. Using this unique approach, Dr. Koenig is able to help you to accelerate and/or maintain your journey to good health. Dr. Koenig prefers a multidisciplinary approach to health care as well. Choosing to be a complimentary provider to traditional medical care when possible rather than an alternative to it. Dr. Koenig makes an effort to communicate treatment plans and treatment rational to the entire health care team of the patient.
