Our name symbolizes our commitment to teaching people the benefits of Integrative Natural Medicine. Our goal is to improve the health of - and educate people on - all the factors that influence health, wellness and disease, including the mind, spirit and community as well as the body. We are proud to be the first of the Integrative Natural Medicine Centers.
At INM, we have truly blended the best of Chinese medicine diagnostics and natural treatments with western medical knowledge. Not only is our exam process unique but our ability to order and administrate varieties of functional medical tests is superior to any other clinic of our kind.* Our founder has determined that by assessing the body through a comprehensive and blended exam we can get to the real source of most health issues.*
Human beings are creatures of nature. Our existence and ultimately our health and happiness is influenced by the time, seasons, weather, our environment, our diet, our interactions with others and our thoughts. Technology throughout the last 200 years has made our lives simpler in many ways such as electricity, heat and air conditioning, modern medicines and science.
Integrative Natural Medicine goes beyond diagnosing a single symptom. We focus on healing the whole person. Patients can expect evidence-based natural medicine from our practitioners, and the support needed in making healthy changes from our Integrative Natural Medicine team. Here is a sample list of the Health conditions we have successfully cared for with outstanding results.*

After a few rounds of steroids, my Rheumatologist recommended a chemo drug to “treat” my overactive immune system (autoimmune– colitis, connective tissue disease, etc.) and I chose SOPHIA instead. Dr. Ken, Dr. Chris, and Dr. Eli are an exceptional team and their natural, integrative, science-based approach works with and heals the body. Within a couple of weeks I experienced tremendous symptom relief and a path to transformational healing.

I strongly recommend Sophia! I've battled with arthritis for over 30 years. In addition, I've had neck pain, weight gain and allergies. In less than 5 months, I've lost 20 pounds and have significantly less arthritic pain. I've learned how to eat healthy, relax and take care of myself. The doctors are knowledgeable and compassionate. The staff is friendly and helpful. I have NEVER felt this amazing. Sophia has changed my life for the better!

Our family's visits to Sophia natural health center have resulted in nothing but positive experiences. We presently have a total of five (5) people from our family under their care, feeling the rewards of natural healing. Appointment times are accurately maintained, the patient is not kept waiting and these doctors listen, which is unusual in these times we live in. I've personally gone in with back pain and left without it. Annoying cold symptoms were treated with acupuncture and natural supplements and within two (2) days I felt complete relief.

The allopathic community should take note, that it is entirely possible to integrate alternative methodologies along with standard treatments. Sophia Natural Health is a smart place to start... First off, the staff is welcoming, smart and wonderful, but Kenneth Hoffman is brilliant at seeing the long view while treating the every day. He is also very practical and down to earth. They are very good at acupuncture and allergy related issues, hormone balancing, pain management, for starters. You can also get a thermagram at Sophia. Do the research folks, it's smarter than a mammogram... I highly recommend

I recently had an consult at the SOPHIA Natural Health Center and feel it is necessary to share my experience. The staff was warm, caring and friendly. I felt as though they were genuinely concerned with my well being. The feeling of well being was present. IT was a GREAT experience. I have begun my healing with the support of SOPHIA.
