Core Healing Modalities
Dr. Ballew's Philosophy
Lasting health comes from understanding the root cause.
Dr. Ballew believes lasting health comes from understanding the root cause of illness, not simply suppressing its symptoms. Every patient is seen as a whole person — physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions all matter when developing a healing plan.
Dr. Ballew specializes in gentle, non-toxic therapies including clinical nutrition, botanical (herbal) medicine, homeopathy, and lifestyle counseling — all customized to each patient.
Areas of Care
Whole-person care,
deeply personalized.
Dr. Ballew sees patients across all of these areas — from the comfort of their home. Her clinical expertise includes women's health, children's health, digestive health, and stress & whole-body wellness.
Women's Health
Hormonal balance, menstrual concerns, PMS, perimenopause and menopause, fertility support, and whole-cycle wellness — including functional hormone testing.
Children's Health
Gentle, non-toxic care for infants, children, and teens — immune support, digestive concerns, allergies, and foundational wellness.
Cardiovascular Health
Natural support for blood pressure, cholesterol, circulation, and heart health — addressing lifestyle, nutrition, and underlying factors.
Allergies & Immune Health
Identification and support for environmental and food sensitivities, seasonal allergies, frequent illness, and immune imbalances.
Digestive Health
Support for IBS, bloating, food sensitivities, dysbiosis, and GI concerns using targeted nutrition and gut-restoration protocols — guided by comprehensive digestive lab work.
Stress & Pain Management
Integrative approaches to chronic pain, fatigue, adrenal stress, and the physical toll of demanding life — including botanical adaptogens and lifestyle strategies.
Detoxification & Cleansing
Medically supervised whole-body cleansing protocols tailored to your current state of health, guided by functional lab testing.
Preventive Care
Annual wellness planning, lab interpretation, nutritional optimization, and proactive strategies for long-term vitality.
Experience
About Dr. Ballew
25+ years of healing.
Dr. Taraneh Ballew earned her B.Sc. from the University of Toronto and completed four years of doctoral study at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine. She was among the very first naturopathic doctors granted licensure when California became the 12th state to license NDs in 2004. She brings over 25 years of clinical experience to every patient relationship.
Her practice is built on the conviction that the body has an inherent capacity to heal — and that the physician's role is to remove obstacles to that healing while providing the right support. She sees patients via secure video appointments, making care accessible no matter where you are in California.
"I see my patients as a whole — with consideration given to the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions when developing their personalized healing plan."
