New Jersey Natural Medicine Welcomes New Practitioners

New Jersey Natural Medicine strongly believes in the benefits of a holistic approach to treatment, with a focus on Naturopathic, Chinee and Biological Medicine. The practice is pleased to officially announce the inclusion of two incredible practitioners, Dr. Adam Dombrowski and Dr. Krista Imre. They share the values upheld by the practice and have a passion for helping their patients find renewed health in a gentle, natural way. 

Dr. Adam Dombrowski ND LAC

Dr. Adam’s warmth, purity of practice and approach to health has drawn numerous patients to him at NJNM. The significant health changes that he has been able to help his clients achieve is based solely on his use of natural therapies, naturopathic medicine, lifestyle medicine and acupuncture. He chose the route of holistic medicine after recognizing the shortcomings of conventional medicine, particularly as he saw his father debilitated by chronic disease after the 9/11 attacks. Holistic medicine provided stability in his father’s condition when nothing else worked.

Dr. Adam believes in achieving optimal health through use of holistic therapies and strives to treat disease in the same way. He knows that health is mostly determined by lifestyle and the body’s ability to heal itself. With his passion and focus, Dr. Adam is helping his clients turn their health around and live their best lives.

 

Meet Dr. Krista Imre ND

From the very first day Dr. Krista joined NJNM last year, she has significantly contributed to the health and wellbeing of her clients. Dr. Krista explains, “My early Waldorf education propelled a craving in my ‘head, heart, and hands’ to understand what it is to be human; how we each experience and respond to the pains and pleasures of our daily lives. I didn’t know then that these explorations would form the basis of my ongoing passion for health and wellbeing.”

While facing her own chronic health problems, she experienced many side effects from the unsatisfactory conventional treatments. She decided to turn to Naturopathy and Ayurveda and found them to be comprehensive medical systems that each address the mind, body and spirit. Using these systems, she was not only able to greatly improve her own health but it also inspired her to become a Naturopathic doctor. She is passionate about her work and tailors her recommendations to resonate with a patient’s specific circumstances. She enjoys the cultivation of the physiological, mental and spiritual beauty that resides within us and strives to listen to each patient and their story with a deep appreciation for the mystery that makes each one of us unique.

Tick Talk

Spring officially sprung on March 21. We have turned our clocks ahead. We are looking forward to warm winds, sunny skies and the smell of fresh cut grass. The daffodils and tulips have recently bloomed and we are just starting with the yard work that comes with the warmer weather.  Sadly, another season has started ramping up.  Tick season.

•             The best form of protection is prevention. Educating oneself about tick activity and how our behaviors overlap with tick habitats is the first step.

•             According to the NJ DOH, in 2022 Hunterdon County led the state with a Lyme disease incidence rate of 426 cases per 100,000 people. The fact is ticks spend approximately 90% of their lives not on a host but aggressively searching for one, molting to their next stage or over-wintering. This is why a tick remediation program should be implemented on school grounds where NJ DOH deems high risk for tick exposure and subsequent attachment to human hosts.

•             Governor Murphy has signed a bill that mandates tick education in NJ public schools. See this for the details.  Tick education must now be incorporated into K-12 school curriculum. See link:

•             May is a great month to remind the public that tick activity is in full swing. In New Jersey, there are many tickborne diseases that affect residents, including Anaplasmosis, Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Lyme disease, Powassan, and Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiosis.

•             For years, the focus has mainly been about protecting ourselves from Lyme disease. But other tick-borne diseases are on the rise in Central Jersey. An increase of incidence of Babesia and Anaplasma are sidelining people too. These two pathogens are scary because they effect our blood cells. Babesia affects the red blood cells and Anaplasma effects the white blood cells.

•             Ticks can be infected with more than one pathogen. When you contract Lyme it is possible to contract more than just that one disease. This is called a co-infection. It is super important to pay attention to your symptoms. See link.
