Shrouded behind an entrance with ivy and foliage, the practitioners at Akasha Center for Integrative Medicine greet seekers with a harmonious collaboration between Western and Eastern medicine. The staff of board-certified physicians, licensed osteopathic and naturopathic doctors, and licensed physical therapists strolls through the center's homey hallways, plotting treatment for patients’ ailments aided by their collective expertise in fields including acupuncture, Chinese medicine, nutrition, psychotherapy, and therapeutic massage. This centralized dialogue between different medical specialties allows patients to obtain a second, third, fourth, and Roger Ebert's opinion without traveling from office to office.
