Integrative bodywork incorporates various forms of hands-on treatments in order to address the root causes of your dysfunction. Muscle tension is released through addressing trapped emotional stressors, old injury patterns, and joint immobility, to name a few.

Sessions are goal-oriented and designed to resolve specific problems, and we encourage clients to be an active participant in their healing process through communicating with their therapist about their experience while on the table. You may be asked to get up, move around, and feel what changed multiple times throughout your session.

Sessions are performed fully clothed. Please arrive in comfortable, flexible clothing that allows for freedom of movement.

Naturopathic Medicine

Naturopathic medicine is a diverse practice of natural healthcare that varies in treatment approach from doctor to doctor. Dr. Chris' treatment philosophy emphasizes sustainable lifestyle habit formation, supplement minimalism, and respect for patient autonomy. His treatment style includes hands-on bodywork, targeted remedies, and mind-body connection techniques.

Background

Bio

Dr. Chris is a naturopathic doctor who never got the memo that you’re supposed to be stressed and burned out to have an ambitious life. After a childhood filled with gastrointestinal issues, joint pain, and anxiety, he learned to practice the very modalities that saved his own health.

In addition to his naturopathic doctorate, Dr. Chris has completed over 500 hours of extracurricular training in health coaching, nutrition, kinesiology, and energy healing. He founded Octavian Natural Health in Redmond, WA in February 2017 during his third year of ND school after completing the Bastyr Massage Intensive and receiving his massage license. After graduating with his naturopathic medical doctorate, he returned to his hometown of Boulder, CO to offer his services to the local community.

His goal-oriented sessions are laser-focused on resolving your concerns efficiently as possible while also giving the body the time and space it needs to heal.

The Dr. Chris Approach

Philosophy of Care

Atomic Habits

Make lifestyle changes into small, sustainable habits, rather than making sweeping changes that don’t last

Supplement Minimalism

Focus on nutrition through ongoing dietary choices, only using supplements when necessary

Honest, Direct Communication

Express your fears, concerns, and doubts freely so we can address them together, rather than just pushing through a care plan that you don’t believe in.

Respect for Patient Autonomy

Never feel obligated to follow your doctor’s advice if you fundamentally disagree with it.

Fluidity of Symptoms

Even the most stuck, chronic symptom can disappear with the right push in the right direction, no matter how small it may seem.

Kill Your Nocebos

Don’t ruin a good result with negative expectations.

Build a Care Team

Seek like-minded healthcare professionals who can collaborate together to help you reach your goals.
