Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine are widely successful at treating a variety of disorders and Mariah enjoys using her skills and knowledge to address her patients’ varying concerns. Her particular fields of interest include applying Chinese Herbal Medicine and Acupuncture to the treatment of stress, anxiety, sleep disorders, digestive issues, asthma, allergies, pain, and women’s health and fertility.

Adelena completed her undergraduate degree at Buffalo State University, where she majored in Health and Wellness along with a Pre-Medicine discipline. She graduated with honors along with many scholar athlete awards. She then went on to Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine in Tempe, Arizona, where she successfully completed her Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine. Adelena always had a passion for alternative/integrative medicine as she was raised amongst chiropractors and grew up in Europe.

Many of the patients that Adelena works with, typically present with a long list of medications, previously diagnosed chronic conditions and having worked with many other practitioners in the past without success. Their goals are to evaluate their health and find the reason they may feel the way they do.

She aids patients in finding the root cause of their concerns through state of the art diagnostic testing. With this, it allows her to educate patients about what is going on in their body at a cellular level and adjust certain aspects of their diet and lifestyle. I particularly specialize in chronic conditions and hormone management.

As someone who has been through the traditional medical system, Adelena strives to provide exceptional care and help you take your life into your own hands. With that you can achieve optimal wellness and feel like yourself again.
