Vitality Health Center, Santa Monica

Under the guidance of a board-certified doctor of internal medicine, Vitality Health Center's team of specialists treats patients with natural-medicine practices focused on overall well-being rather than only a set of symptoms. The center's healing approach emphasizes functional medicine, which analyzes every aspect of patients' lives—including their diet, activity level, past traumas, and favorite daytime soap opera—for health-harming triggers. With a chiropractor, holistic nutritionist, massage therapist, acupuncturist, and Pilates instructor also on staff, patients can fully renovate their lifestyle with an array of services ranging from nutritional blood analyses to semi-private Pilates sessions.
