The leadership team at Nava combines physicians with credentialed experts in therapeutic fields, such as chiropractic medicine, diet and nutrition, acupuncture and massage therapy. Medical Director Dr. Douglas Lord brings 40 years of experience practicing Obstetrics and Gynecology, and as an innovator of family-centered obstetrics in the DC area. Lord and Medical Advisor Mark Sivieri, M.D. both found themselves seeking answers from alternative medicine during their professional careers. Their research has led to what they refer to as the "proprietary Nava Method," which all Nava staff are trained in. Beyond acupuncture and chiropractic treatment, other alternative therapies offered at Nava include hyperbaric oxygen therapy and hormone optimization.
The Nava Method pursues the goal of optimal wellness at all stages of life, emphasizing cures over medication. It breaks up treatment into separate stages: Consultation, Collaboration (among the experts on staff), Action (based on your Custom Vitality Plan), Reassessment, and Support. The plan may also include a nutrition program. Visit their website for more information.
While the Nava approach may not be for everyone, a new health option is coming to Friendship Heights. Nava has plans to expand to a Rockville location in the near future.
