Services
Naturopathic Medicine
Our naturopathic doctors use evidence-based natural therapies to address root causes of illness. We combine nutrition, acupuncture, and lifestyle counseling with advanced diagnostics to create personalized treatment plans. This approach effectively manages chronic conditions while promoting overall wellness through the body's innate healing capabilities.
Acupuncture
Based on traditional Chinese medicine principles, our acupuncture treatments restore balance by regulating Qi flow through meridians. This therapy effectively addresses pain management, stress reduction, and various chronic conditions by stimulating specific points to improve energy and blood circulation throughout the body.
IV Therapy
Intravenous vitamin and mineral therapy delivers high-dose nutrients directly into the bloodstream for maximum absorption. This treatment supports immune function, energy production, and detoxification processes, particularly beneficial for chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and immune-compromised patients.
Medical Thermography
Non-invasive thermal imaging detects physiological changes in breast tissue by measuring heat patterns. This early detection method identifies abnormal vascular patterns that may indicate developing health concerns, providing valuable diagnostic information complementary to conventional screening methods.
Biomeridian Testing
This non-invasive assessment evaluates meridian energy levels to identify imbalances in organ systems. By measuring electrical resistance at specific acupuncture points, we determine stress levels in bodily systems and recommend targeted nutritional support to restore energetic balance and prevent disease progression.

I have been a client of Dr Strelec for almost two decades. My children have seen her throughout their young lives. Each time we go I am always impressed by her thorough knowledge and her ability to make each of us comfortable. She is very accommodating and willing to make suggestions that work in our lifestyles. She is a very important part of our overall health and I am beyond grateful to have her and her office doing what they do so well. Thank you Dr. Brandy and Deb:-).

I have been a patient for over 12 years at Core Health and have received exceptional care. Dr. Strelec is invested in her patients health and genuinely listens to their concerns. Dr. Strelec has helped me and countless others in the community with health and wellness issues when no other practitioner has been able to. I’m grateful to Core Health… and Dr. Strelec for always going above and beyond to treat the underlying cause and not just the obvious symptoms. The knowledge, experience and compassion of Dr. Strelec and the Core Health team is second to none. I highly recommend Core

I have been treated by Dr. Brandy Strelec for over a decade. She is one of the most knowledgeable and compassionate doctors I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with and I trust her completely! She is extremely professional in her approach and comprehensive when treating ailments. Although natural can take more time to heal significant ailments, it… also offers superior health and improvements to overall systems vs a pill that covers up symptoms. I firmly believe that her treatments and recommendations helped considerably in ensuring a viable pregnancy after several failed fertility treatments
