Restoration Health Services

Office Visits

Because Restoration Health is dedicated to a team approach to health care, your initial visit is a consultation with both Dr. Lisa Fillis and Nina Yannoukos together. This comprehensive evaluation allows them to fully understand your health needs and give you an individualized treatment plan.

First Visit Includes:

• 1 to 1.5  hour comprehensive consultation
• Physical exam by Dr. Fillis, as indicated
• Homeopathic evaluation by Nina Yannoukos

Follow Up Visits Include:

• 45 minute consultation to evaluate progress
• Discussion of lab work, test results if applicable

Homeopathic Evaluations

(not available at Signal Hill location)

In the Homeopathic evaluation, Nina Yannoukos examines the patient's physical and mental symptoms as well as diet and environmental preferences. What aggravates and improves his or her conditions is also examined. A constitutional remedy is prescribed based on specific characteristics of each patient. Nina formulates a liquid-based remedy which allows for easier compliance.

Naturopathic Evaluations

During the Naturopathic evaluation, Dr. Fillis examines the patient's health on all levels, including the immediate health concerns. This includes sleep, energy, digestion, hormones, stress, and diet, all of which can play a role in a patient's well-being. Herbs, nutritional supplements, dietary and lifestyle changes, and natural hormones are prescribed as indicated.

Vitamin Injections

Dr. Fillis offers B12 and other vitamin injections for specific health needs.

Soon to be available: IV vitamins. Great for a number of conditions. Some of which include: boosting the immune system for cold season, cancer treatment, Hepatitis C, and auto-immune diseases.

Lab Work/Testing

Restoration Health offers traditional lab work, as well as some non-traditional testing.  These include:

Neurotransmitter Testing

Neurotransmitter testing is invaluable in evaluating a patient's brain chemistry. Depression and Anxiety are affected by many things including serotonin levels. Other neurotransmitters play a role in mood and emotional outlook, including dopamine, GABA, epinephrine, and PEA. Neurotransmitter testing measures all of these to determine which are high or low. Balancing your neurotransmitters can give you more energy, alleviate depression and anxiety, and relieve PMS and Menopause symptoms.

Hormone Testing

Measuring hormone levels in saliva and urine is a valuable diagnostic tool. Saliva levels tend to be more accurate than blood, and urine testing not only evaluates the hormone levels, but also the way they are being utilized. This can help us to determine which hormones are out of balance and the proper course of treatment.

Food Sensitivity Testing

This is a blood test for food sensitivities, rather than true food allergies. With an allergy to a food there may be reactions such as hives or difficulty breathing. Sensitivities to food, on the other hand, can cause general fatigue after eating, gas and bloating, constipation or diarrhea, acid reflux, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and many other general symptoms. The blood test gives a better indication of food sensitivities than the skin prick test. It looks at 90 different foods and evaluates your sensitivity to each one.

Heavy Metal Testing

Many disease processes have underlying toxicity as their cause. Heavy metals like mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic, aluminum, and copper can put a toxic burden on the body. By measuring the levels of heavy metals, we can determine if they are creating health problems.

Nutritional Counseling

Good nutrition is one of the foundations of health. Restoration Health offers consultations to discuss your current eating habits and to make dietary recommendations to optimize your well-being.

Women's Wellness Exams

(not available at Signal Hill location)

Restoration Health offers pap smears, gynecological and breast exams. We also offer natural treatment for cervical dysplasia (abnormal pap smears).

Detoxification Program

Our detox program is great for anyone who wants to cleanse their body. Due to the toxins in our environment, it's important for all of us to cleanse a couple of times a year. We suggest at the beginning of the year, in the spring, and at the end of summer. It's also great to do after being on antibiotics or medication for awhile.

The detox program consists of:

• Weekly visits during the detox
• Supplements to assist the detox
• Nutritional guidelines
• Detailed protocol for doing a 1 week, 2 week, or 3 week cleanse
• Prevention Programs

Wellness Program

This program is based on the principles of preventative medicine. We support the body and provide a solid foundation so that in times of stress, the body is better prepared to cope. Staying healthy means staying on a wellness routine. At Restoration Health, we provide a supportive environment for you to maintain your health throughout the year.

For a yearly fee, you receive:

• 3 visits a year, which include a Naturopathic and Homeopathic evaluation
• A yearly physical exam
• Complete lab work
• Individualized nutritional and exercise guidelines
• Vitamin, Homeopathic and Herbal supplement recommendations

Weight Loss Program

Excess weight can contribute to most of the chronic disease we see in our office, including anxiety and depression, hormonal imbalances, heart disease, diabetes, and auto-immune diseases.

Our weight loss program gives you:

• Weekly visits for nutritional counseling
• Weekly weigh-ins
• Supplements to assist in fat burning, appetite control, and energy
• Individualized exercise program
• Accountability and support

Health Coaching

Health Coaching is a program that helps you achieve your goals toward a healthier lifestyle. The difficult part of losing weight or sticking to a health program is learning to change your habits. Our Health Coaching program gives you the tools to help you stick to your goals and keeps you accountable so that you actually get to where you want to be.

The Health Coaching program evaluates what your goals are, what are the obstacles to that goal and what we need to do to get there. From there we can set up a weekly, or even daily check-ins to keep you on your path.

This is an example of how it might look:

First visit: Evaluation of goals, life, challenges, plan of action

1st week:

• Action Plan: set up an eating and supplement plan and shopping list
• 3 phone calls to see if you're eating right and what challenges you're running into

2nd week:

• Action Plan: set up an exercise program
• 2 phone calls to see how your eating and exercise routine are coming

3rd week:

• Action Plan: evaluate emotional eating habits
• 1 phone call to check on progress

Homeopathic Pet Care

(not available at Signal Hill location)

A growing number of veterinarians are turning to homeopathic medicine as a safe and effective alternative to conventional veterinary practice. Homeopathic remedies use minute amounts of substances to act as a trigger to the body and stimulate its natural ability to heal. By boosting the immune system, Restoration Health is working to keep your pet healthy.
