Dear Dr. Destia, you are one of the best doctors that we have come across since my sons illness. I want to thank you for being so understanding and patient with my many questions and for going above and beyond to accommodate confidentiality by having phone consultations with me prior to my son’s appt. Your kindness really helped me through this difficult time. I feel that my son is in good hands.   -P.C., San Leandro

My daughter and I have had excellent results with NAET. We were both eliminating about 30 food while she was nursing and before out treatment to avoid constant rashes, hives and behavior problems. We did many, many treatments with Jen and we can now eat everything!
-V.B., Mountain View

Both of my sons have been receiving NAET treatments for allergies and I have noticed a substantial change in their general health and behavior. I have observed that they are more focused and illness linked to allergies is virtually gone! I highly recommend this non-invasive treatment to anyone suffering from allergies or behavioral issues.

I was suffering from severe migraines which would last 24 hours about 3 times a week. I could not move my head without intense pain and nausea. I had to quit working and was afraid to socialize or travel fearing an attack, so basically my life was consumed by the migraines and I was a total wreck. I tried numerous medications and went to numerous doctors, but did not find help and eventually gave up on western medicine. I started receiving craniosacral therapy on a regular basis. I am really happy I stuck with it because after about 4-5 months, the migraines started to taper off and then disappeared altogether! Thank you!!
-A.R., San Francisco

“Destia is a compassionate and talented healer. She creates a safe and comfortable environment in her office. As an ND she is very in tune with her patients. I highly recommend her for her Cranio-Sacral (CST) work as well. She worked magic for my migraines!”  Top qualities: Great Results , Personable , Expert.    -L.D., Santa Rosa

My 1 year old son suffered from extreme gastrointestinal discomfort that left western medical doctors stumped. Subsequently, my son had many behavioral issues and difficulty sleeping. I was referred to Jen and we began a series of NAET treatments that definitely helped relieve the severity of some of his symptoms, but did not eliminate the problem completely. We then saw Dr. Bryan for homeopathy and Dr. Destia for craniosacral therapy. After just a few appointments, I saw a tremendous shift and now have a happy and healthy boy!   -D.D., San Jose

I used to spend 2 days a month in agony with migraine headaches. I took medication that did not always work and had adverse side effects. Cypress Natural Medicine helped me and I am migraine free, have more energy and am feeling in balance. Thank you!

“Destia brings her whole heart to everything she does. She is a wonderful biodynamic cranial practitioner and naturopathic physician, and has a warm, effective way with children and adults. I would recommend her to anyone needing the subtle work of craniosacral therapy. Her work is informed by her ability to listen deeply to one’s being and body… and should not be missed!”  Willow Dea MS, OTR/L, Director , Advanced Integrative Training

My son has suffered severe digestive problems for the past 5 years. After having 3 invasive diagnostic procedures that left him with adverse reactions and a recommendation of lifetime medication and life-altering surgery, we sought a natural approach. After coming to Dr. Bryan, we began to see signs of steady improvement where his symptoms began disappearing altogether. Now my son is off to summer camp and living the life of a normal boy after being so ill he missed 3 months of school. Dr. Bryan has restored my son’s quality of life and I am eternally grateful for that.   -R.P., Mountain View

Not Enough Fruits & Vegetables on the Table?

Not Enough Fruits & Vegetables on the Table?
Dr. Destia Skinner, ND

Substantial evidence suggests that consistent consumption of fruit and vegetables may prevent cancer and other chronic diseases. Current U.S. dietary guidelines recommend daily consumption of five servings of fruits and vegetables, but whether or not these guidelines translate into actual dietary trends among U.S. adults remains unclear.
This study evaluated fruit and vegetable consumption in 16 states from 1990-1996. Data from telephone surveys, including questions on dietary intake and participation in leisure-time physical activities, were used to stratify respondents based on various socio-demographic and health-related characteristics.
Results indicated that only 22% of the study population reported adequate intake of fruits and vegetables over the six-year period (19% in 1990, 22% in 1994, and 23% in 1996). The proportion increased among those participating in leisure-time physical activity and those with normal weight, but remained almost the same among inactive people, and dropped among the obese.
The authors note that progress in fruit and vegetable intake over the study period was “encouraging.” However, the relatively insignificant change from 1994-1996 emphasizes the need for increased education efforts, particularly targeting those people who are overweight and/or participate in little or no physical activity.
