Asthma This was the first time in 9 years I was able to walk the boardwalk in 80 degree weather. It was also the first summer in 9 years I haven't been on the nebulizer. And your treatment helped me to overcome the steroid withdrawal. Thank you so much! I have great hope and know the future will be better.

Dr. Armitstead helped me change my life truly after a few years of working with her and being consistent about taking my supplements my body was able to detox and start working properly. I had really abused it during college and still have my moments but being on her program has helped me to stabilize my body and emotions as well as give me a greater understanding of when things are off. I have an idea of what needs to be done to get back on track and when I can’t figure it out I’m back in the office. I highly recommend working with her.

I visited Healing Arts for the first time last year after being misdiagnosed by a few dermatologists. I had white spots covering my entire arms. Most doctors just prescribed creams and pills and nothing worked.
Finally, through muscle testing, Dr. Armitstead saw I had candida and it was the root cause of my issues. The treatment lasted 3 months and my skin completely cleared! I am so grateful. I now come regularly for check ups. If you've been suffering from not knowing what's actually going on with your body, this place is for you.

In my fight against breast cancer amidst a global pandemic, Dr Armitstead was my rock. She's a gifted healer. She and her kind team helped guide me out of hypersensitivity (due to chemo, my chemo 'rockbottom'), bring back my immune system, and with general care and well-being. She provides a tailored approach reading what your body needs. I can't say enough positive things and don't know what I would have done without her on my journey and beyond.

I would recommend doing the elimination diet and some cleanses as this would have a similar result. If this is something you aren't into doing, then by all means get assistance by a professional. I do feel the meetings were rushed and about 10 mins long. I ended up spending a lot of time and money on sessions and supplements. I have done muscle testing before in city and had a much better experience and results at another office. I have since learned to muscle test myself which has been great. I wish I could give a better review but this is my honest experience.

A few years ago I came down with a virus. It lasted for 6-8 weeks. I went to my doctor twice in which she told me there was nothing she could do that antibiotics would not help as it was not a bacterial virus. After leaving work with a fever most days, being winded after walking a block and unable to eat, my optometrist recommended me Dr. Armitstead. After testing me she had me on a regimen of supplements and a diet to build up my immune system. I was actually healing and within 6-8 weeks my colleagues and friends noticed that I had not only lost weight but had a healthy glow. I came away healthier

Dr. Armistead and her team are incredibly gifted and absolutely wonderful people. As a Type 1 Diabetic, I have sought out many ways of taking care of myself, specifically with food and vitamins. When I follow Dr. Armistead’s guidance, I feel at my best with more energy than I have felt in years, my blood sugars work perfectly with my insulin doses, and other symptoms I’ve had for years fade away. The body truly knows the answer, and Dr. Armistead knows how to read it. Thank You” does not even begin to describe my gratitude. DO IT. Go see them.

If you want a lymphatic drainage which produces great results, you will find a first rate therapist named Maria Shalkoff at Healing Arts. I have been a client of Maria for 6.5 years. This morning my entire body was so puffy and my feet were really swollen. Without fail, Maria did her magic and at the end of the session, my body was not puffy and my feet were no longer swollen. She is the best!

One of the most dedicated, caring practitioners you will ever have. Dr. Armitstead and her team understand true whole body health and wellness. I have been under Dr. A's care for almost six years and I am feeling the best I have ever been. Thank you for all your wisdom and for showing me the pathway to living a fuller, more expanded way of understanding how proper nutrition, detoxification and emotional harmony contribute to ultimate healing.

As a patient of many years, I can personally attest to the powerful healing through nutrition this practice can offer. Dr. Armitstead's wisdom is matched by her warmth, and I've always felt heard, supported, and truly cared for. Health is a journey, and I'm so grateful for the compassionate care I've received from her on mine. Highly recommended.

Dr. Armitstead and I have worked together for 11 years. It has been amazing to watch her begin as a health care professional and to grow into a true healer. Definitely seeing the Healing Arts grow and develop. I have lost over 60 pounds and blood sugars have become manageable and no longer in diabetic range. The pain from fibromyalgia is under control and I am able to enjoy life so much more. She has truly given me the joy of health. I wholeheartedly recommend this Dr. for your health care needs!!

Terrible service...like a factory. Doesn't take time to understand your health history. Rushed through entire experience.... horrible bedside manner. You can tell they are only about making money just like their mainstream medicine counterparts. I was really hoping this place would be different. Don't waste your time or money.

After years of feeling unwell and parading around with conventional medicine, my health continued to decline. All the previous doctors seemed to think I was just exaggerating my symptoms and put me on prescription medications that made me feel even worse. In the fall of 2013, I was referred to Dr. Armitstead by a friend who mentioned she did something called muscle testing. I was so sick that I was open to try anything. From my initial consultation, I knew immediately that I had found a true healer and someone who understood how to approach the body as a whole. She listened to my entire list of

I was dealing with health issues for a couple of years and had to be an advocate for myself to get to the bottom of them. I knew I had parasites due to sewage exposure but it took time to find a doctor that could help. When I thought I'd finally cleared them, I could tell that there was still some repair to do to my system. Fortunately, someone I know mentioned her own health experience. She hadn't felt 100% in a few years but didn't know why, and had gone to see Alicia after her friend made the recommendation.
Well, I definitely had Candida from all of the antibiotics I'd

I have worked with Dr. Alicia Armitstead for many years. She has helped me recover from chronic back pain and abdominal discomfort, stress related disorders and fatigue. Dr. Armitstead is not only unique in the healing arts but also an excellent communicator. She is compassionate and takes the time to understand the whole individual to get to the root of complex problems. Her knowledge as a chiropractor and nutritionist along with her caring attitude is a combination I have never encountered in any other health professional I have met. She has greatly improved the quality of my life.”
