Dr. Pulnik’s Treatment Philosophy
Naturopathic physicians are trained as primary care providers, and Dr. Pulnik has experience with conventional medicines and treatments. However, unlike conventional physicians, who listen to patients for an average of less than 30 seconds, Dr. Pulnik works with each patient to design an effective, personalized treatment plan — which is only possible after careful listening, review of your medical history, and interpretation of your symptoms.
In addition to drawing on the principles of naturopathic medicine, Dr. Pulnik utilizes Advanced Allergy Therapeutics, acupuncture, vitamin therapy, homeopathic remedies, laboratory testing, and other natural, holistic techniques to provide patients with non-invasive modes of healing. Trained in several different areas of holistic medicine, Dr. Pulnik is able to work with patients to achieve powerful results — no matter what your affliction.
As a Naturopathic Physician and Clinical Nutritionist, Dr. Pulnik expertly prescribes dietary therapy and nutritional supplementation along with clinical and laboratory diagnosis to return you to a healthier balance.

Fresh juice is a nutrient-dense living liquid that is absorbed almost instantly into the body (in about 15 minutes!), requiring little effort to digest and assimilate. Juicing concentrates the most nutrient-dense parts of the plants in the juice. It is almost like receiving an intravenous infusion of vitamins, minerals, and enzymes that goes right into your system without having to be broken down. Because the benefits are so instantaneous, you may feel the energy boost right away after drinking fresh juice! Glastonbury Naturopathic Center is offering a 3 Day Guided Organic Juice Fast starting January 19!

Why it is so important to lose weight for your health: Did you know? According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately one-third of US adults were obese in 2007-2008. Studies have shown that a weight loss of 5% to 10% of body weight from baseline can result in meaningful improvements in cardiovascular risk factors (e.g., lipids, blood pressure and blood glucose) and a significant reduction in the incidence of type 2 diabetes. Losing weight should not be hard, nor should it take months and years to accomplish. It's all about taking really good care of yourself, managing your stress, exercising, and above all, following a proven program that offers you support and care. If you are really serious about, and committed to losing the extra weight and fat, becoming healthy in both body and mind, the Wholistic HCG Medical Weight Loss & Health Program may the perfect choice for you. You can get started on the path to a healthy body at our "Get Started" education classes every week at Glastonbry Naturopathic Center.
