Complementary Medicine

Our approach to complementary medicine is evidence based and integrated with our usual medical care. As board certified physicians we always practice only the highest standards of care for our specialties. However, when our patients request, we also offer appropriate evidence-based practices within the field of complementary medicine to augment the effectiveness of our treatments.

Complementary Medicine

Inspired to provide comprehensive pain medicine solutions to the Sonoma community, Sonoma Valley Community Health Center is pleased to now offer specialized yoga classes and workshops to the community, collectively called The Vitality Method®, where Yoga, Mindfulness, and Holistic Medicine meet.

Taught and facilitated by Meredith A. Hart, MS, CIAYT, ERYT500, LMT and Christopher Voscopoulos, MD, MBA, MS, FCCP, these classes and workshops focus on providing gentle relief from pain and stress while ushering in the body’s supportive innate healing vitality.

The Vitality Method® classes may seem simple and easy, yet they are very effective, reliable, safe, and complementary.

This is because the breathing practices and the slow, supported and precisely aligned yoga poses are uniquely designed to calm your mind, unwind the tight muscles along your spine, and enhance your natural vital healing energy along your spinal column.

And, when this happens, you feel better and spontaneously relax into your body and mind.

Initially there will be only one class for all participants, but as our community grows we will be separating the classes into beginner, intermediate, and advanced.
