General Information

At Oasis Advanced Wellness we will be educating and guiding rather than treating, as that word is reserved for licensed medical doctors, which we are not.

We offer nutritional balancing for all health concerns. Our main goal is to teach you what you need to know to eliminate and prevent health challenges without the use of drugs or surgery. Many people realize that to continue to feel good and fight disease they need to make certain lifestyle changes. With all the information now available on the Internet it can be quite confusing in deciding upon which program will truly help your body to heal. At OAW we have done all the research for you and have put together programs that will not only encourage healing but also will educate you as to what it takes to remain healthy. We count it a privilege to be your "partner in health."

Optimum Health Strategies Doing What Works Program

In addition to diet, herbs, vitamins, and stress-reduction methods, we will discuss with you the concepts of detoxification, lymphatic drainage, exercise, cleaning up your environment and many other healing modalities as they apply to your individual needs. We will also recommend reading material that will help you in your journey to good health.

We also offer emotional counseling, as all disease has an emotional component. Many times we don't realize how important it is deal with anger, fear, resentment, etc. Most will not experience wellness until emotional issues have been resolved.

Your First Visit

You are welcome and encouraged to bring with you a spouse, partner, or other family member if this person will be involved in your healing process. Skeptics are welcome, so please feel free to bring this important person (but do not force them to come) even if they are not a believer in alternative and complementary health modalities. Please do not bring children to your appointments.

At the first visit we will do a complete health questionnaire. Please allow 2 hours for this visit. Often the consultation will run somewhat less than this, but it is important that you not feel rushed. If this is a consultation for more than one person, such as a couple, allow at least one more hour for the additional person. This may sound like quite a lot of time, however, it will pass very quickly as there is a great deal of information to be discussed.

Please bring all of the nutritional supplements of any kind that you are currently taking. Please make a list of all prescription medications that you are currently taking along with dosages. In addition, please bring or fax copies of any lab work done within the last six months.

After the first visit we will go over your questionnaire, lab reports, etc. If you have not had blood work done within the last two months, you will need to complete this as soon as possible. Within 3-4 days (more if we are waiting on blood work) your customized program will be ready. We will send it to you through email and ask that you read it through at least 3 times, making notes of any questions that you may have. After this is completed, please call to schedule your next appointment. At this appointment we will answer all questions and will have your supplements ready for pick-up. We require that you schedule an appointment at least one time every month. You will need to get blood work done every three months.

Optimum Health Strategies Program Duration

The average duration of the Optimum Health Strategies Program is 3-6 months with at least one visit per month, although this varies widely according to the patient's individual needs.

Information For People Who Live Out-of-State

We have helped people from all over the world to regain their health. While we are certainly willing to help you by phone, it is highly recommended that your first visit be on-site. After that, you may have all future sessions by phone.

What Makes Oasis Advanced Wellness Different From Other Healthcare Practices?

• We take the time to listen and get to know our clients. You will always be treated with respect at Oasis Advanced Wellness. We schedule more time with you than a typical clinic visit for a good reason: To thoroughly understand your condition and assist with physical, emotional and spiritual healing takes time. We go the extra mile for our clients.
• We require in-depth lab work and medical history for each client. We also use a more accurate interpretation of the lab values from a functional perspective, as one may have "normal" values but normal does not always indicate "optimal." While we never rely solely on lab results, we do use them as a piece to the whole puzzle.
• We treat the cause. Our purpose is to help you find and understand the causes of your health challenges and create a customized treatment plan for you. We will help to educate you in taking responsibility for your health. We treat the body as a whole and not as separate systems.
• We use the healing power of nature with lifestyle changes and natural remedies that stimulate the vital force of the body to heal itself. Your body has many healing mechanisms already in place; pharmaceutical drugs and toxins can suppress these natural mechanisms. All of our products have gone through rigorous clinical testing for treating, preventing or supporting multiple health conditions. Our programs have been developed to work together synergistically to ensure that all systems of the body are addressed.

If you can accept these seven concepts, then you should have what it takes to begin your journey toward better health. Always feel free to ask questions along the way. Always remember that you are doing this for yourself. You will reap the benefits of your hard work with improved health. We will do everything possible to help you get there. We will not wish you luck, because luck has nothing to do with it. Willpower, patience, determination, belief and consistency are the keys.

Important Information when the Health Challenge is Cancer

First of all please realize that we offer only nutritional balancing for cancer. We cannot be your primary doctor and do require that you have access to a licensed healthcare professional at all times. You do have choices when it comes to attacking the cancer. Most people are never told that they have choices. It is up to you to make the ultimate decision concerning a plan to heal your body. Always remember that your body has the ability to heal itself. Our job is to educate you. With the necessary knowledge, you can strengthen your body and empower it to more effectively fight the cancer. This is not an easy path. If you can make the commitment to stick to the program diligently, the rewards may change your life.

There is a great deal of legitimate research and many published studies on holistic or non-traditional cancer treatments. A physician's lack of knowledge in this area will never negate the research or the excellent results shown for some of these treatments. It is our opinion that if one person is helped by a particular method or product then that means another person can experience the same, and another, and another. If you look hard enough, you may find that in many cases, non-traditional therapies may yield better results. Knowledge is power.

There are many controversies in the war against cancer. One thing that we do know is that cancer cannot develop and take hold in a body with a sufficiently strong immune system. We all have pre-cancerous cells in our bodies. Every day, the body fights off or destroys those cells that it identifies as harmful. A healthy immune system is able to destroy rogue cells so that they cannot duplicate and grow to form a tumor. Tens of thousands of cancer victims thought that they had led very healthy lives but their cancer proved otherwise. It is now time to become more diligent and aggressive regarding your health and nutritional program in order to boost your body's ability to fight cancer cells.

How long did it take for your cancer to develop? Actually, the entire process began years ago as your immune system became less efficient in doing its job properly. The stresses of our jobs, relationships, and general lifestyles all contribute to the attack on our health. The foods we eat, the chemicals they contain, and their lack of adequate vitamins, minerals, and enzymes add to the assault. Some of the cancer-causing agents with which we deal every day include air and water pollutants, cleaning solvents, pesticides, air fresheners, food additives, refined foods, over consumption of sugars, the wrong fats and oils, and our 20th-century lifestyle. Cancer "develops" in your body over time due to a depressed immune system. According to information from some of our national cancer organizations, as much as 80% of all cancers are related to our diet and lifestyle. In other words, we are the cause of most of our cancers. Medical statistics show that most cancers are not curable, so we need to move outside of medicine for help. Most are preventable.

How can we work to strengthen the immune system to help the body fight cancer? First of all, there must be full disclosure and full awareness. If we are to succeed, it is necessary that you understand your odds and the statistics. Fighting cancer is very difficult (literally a war) and takes a great amount of commitment. This kind of commitment cannot come from someone unless they realize and accept the true terminal nature of their illness. Once you understand that the experts have given you only a few months or a couple of years to live, it will become far easier to make radical changes in your life. Since nutritional products and OAW fees are not covered by insurance, money may become a problem. This is yet another reason why full awareness is so important. For a person who believes that they are healthy, spending $1,000-$4,000 on nutritional products, and completely changing their eating habits, sounds very extreme. If, however, your oncologist has just given you under 18 months to live, you need every bit of nutritional ammunition you can get. You owe it to yourself to take advantage of any products which are not harmful and might extend your life, reduce your pain, or possibly even help your body to heal itself. As a comparison, if a pharmaceutical company developed a $20,000 pill or vaccine, which could cure cancer, patients would be breaking down their doctor's doors to purchase it. They would somehow find the money. Without your health, all other things in your life, spiritual purpose, family, friends, possessions, hopes and dreams cannot be enjoyed to their fullest. What is your health worth to you?

So where does all of this leave us? First, we require that their oncologist tell our clients exactly what the odds are for their type of cancer. Next, you must insist that the oncologist gives you reprints of two or more studies that show that the treatment they are recommending has ever been shown to be better than no treatment at all. We will review these studies with you so that you understand them. We will go over all of the diet and nutritional information that has been shown to help your body fight cancer, and I will answer all of your questions. We are not saying that you must do everything that we discuss in order to increase your chances. We are clearly saying that if you only choose 25-30% of the things, which we will discuss, you might not want to bother wasting your time and money. When a house is falling apart from the inside, a few new doors and windows will not prevent it from tumbling down. We do not claim to cure any disease, but instead give the body what it needs to rebuild and heal itself.

Remember: Knowledge Is Empowering!

We Applaud You For Taking The First Step On Your Journey To Health And Wellness!
