Naturopathic Medicine
Our naturopathic approach combines traditional healing methods with modern science to address chronic health issues at their source. Through personalized treatment plans incorporating nutritional counseling, herbal remedies, and lifestyle modifications, we help patients achieve lasting wellness. This holistic method has successfully improved conditions ranging from autoimmune disorders to hormonal imbalances across our Charlotte-based and virtual patient base.
Functional Testing
We employ comprehensive diagnostic testing including hormonal panels, food sensitivity assessments, and gastrointestinal evaluations to pinpoint underlying health issues. These specialized tests enable precise treatment planning tailored to each patient's unique biochemistry, helping identify contributing factors to chronic conditions that conventional testing might miss while ensuring targeted, effective interventions.
Hormone Balance
Our hormone optimization programs address imbalances affecting energy levels, mood, weight management, and overall well-being. Through customized treatment plans combining bioidentical hormone replacement, nutritional support, and lifestyle modifications, we help patients restore hormonal equilibrium and alleviate associated symptoms ranging from menopausal discomfort to thyroid dysfunction.
Autoimmune Disease Treatment
We specialize in addressing autoimmune conditions through root-cause analysis and personalized treatment strategies. Our approach combines dietary interventions, leaky gut healing protocols, and targeted supplementation to modulate immune function while addressing inflammation triggers, helping patients manage symptoms and improve quality of life without relying solely on conventional pharmaceutical interventions.
Digestive Health
Our digestive health programs focus on restoring gut integrity through comprehensive testing and personalized treatment plans. By addressing food sensitivities, harmful gut bacteria, and nutritional deficiencies, we help patients overcome conditions like IBS, Crohn's disease, and acid reflux while improving overall systemic health through enhanced nutrient absorption and reduced inflammation.

Just getting started, so what I can say at this early stage is everyone I've interacted with has been exceptionally kind and open to questions and helping. I was pleasantly surprised that Dr Smith left me a voice mail to welcome me to the program and encourge me to call him anytime with questions.

Report
Prior to becoming a part of the CNHC family, I was in severe constant pain, taking twelve different medications, and running between 7 different doctors. I took the 6 month program and can honestly say it has changed my life. No more pain, sleeping naturally, down to three medications, and no longer needing to see all those doctors. The knowledge I've gained about how to live and eat has created a future where I thought there was none. I highly recommend CNHC.

I paid, up front, over $8,000 for a relationship that is the exact opposite of what I was "sold". No one replies to my questions, there is no accountability or checking-in on my success, or offering support where I feel I need help. There is only the online videos that feel more like homework than support. And you'll get seemingly personalized emails letting you know you've not done one, but rest assured, they're automated. Basically, you will get zero support.
Unless you are highly motivated, and highly disciplined on your own, this is not worth your money! I am kicking myself for falling for the "relationship" and "we are here to help you succeed" speech because it has been the complete opposite of that for me. I did address the issue of getting delayed, or no, responses to my emails and gave them a second chance but it is happening again. It's really unprofessional and not up to par with the price that I paid.
