The first time I saw Brandi, I was interested in improving my energy and overall health with her training in naturopathic medicine. Since then our entire family has benefited from Brandi’s expertise, wisdom, compassion, inquisitiveness and thoroughness. We have all had food allergy tests with Brandi’s guidance and have discovered how to live and eat in a way that our bodies can thrive. Brandi’s approach is integrative and respectful of each patient’s needs and lifestyles. She is balanced and thoughtful and we hope to have Brandi in our lives for many years!

Dr. Solaces approach to medicine is comprehensive and whole. I felt a sense of relief after my first visit with her. Instead of just dismissing my symptoms with a diagnosis and a prescription pill she sought out to get to the root of the problem and to fix it by supporting the systems within me that were stressed, undernourished, or not getting adequate support from other systems in my body. Dr. Solace helped bring me up to speed on whole nutrition and introduced me to vitamin and herbal supplements, meditation, homeopathic medicine, the toll that stress takes on our body, and the healing power of a long meandering walk. I finally feel 100%.

Dr. Brandi Solace has greatly improved my quality of life since I started seeing her late fall 2012. Throughout my life I have struggled with persistent digestive issues, feeling exhausted frequently and severe seasonal allergies. Overall, I always believed I could feel better than I did. However, going to other doctors in the past proved to be nothing more than a let down. Coming to terms with my ongoing symptoms and the thoughts that maybe all I was feeling was in my head or maybe this was how all people felt, became my way of life. The summer of 2012, I had several life changes and as a result increased stress. The stress exacerbated all of my usual symptoms. A loved one recommend Dr. Brandi Solace to me and I thought "Another let down...no thanks!" As my symptoms worsened, new ones were added. My loved one relentlessly begged me to see Dr. Solace. I finally gave in. I was hesitant to say the least but when I walked in I was pleasantly surprised. Her clinic was welcoming and so was Dr. Solace and Jonas. Dr. Solace sat with me and went over ALL of my symptoms. She explained the process of her practice, ran tests and started me on supplements. When I returned for test results she explained how EVERYTHING I had experienced throughout my life was related and laid out a plan of attack to make my life better. I finally felt validated and hopeful! I appreciated her honesty as she explained the process would be a difficult and long road but would be worth it. Dr. Solace has been supportive the whole way and continues to be. She treated me as a person, not as a basket case full of symptoms. Dr. Solace has given me the tools for the long haul. Enjoying meals and not worrying about becoming sick, making it through an entire day without needing a nap and not being afraid to enjoy an entire weekend outdoors in the summer are a few of the improvements her guidance has given me. This journey of lifestyle changes has been a difficult and long road as Dr. Solace said it would be. She also said it would be worth it. I would have to say this is an understatement. There are no words for me to express the worth of my improved quality of life. I know what Dr. Solace has done for me and I would highly recommend her to anyone. She is truly a one of a kind doctor and for that I will always be grateful.

When I brought my oldest son to Solace Natural Medicine, I had already been to many different doctors to try to identify and treat the conditions associated with Autism. My previous experiences with doctors had been frustrating and disheartening. I came across a book by a doctor in New York that looked promising and was ready to take my son and my husband and fly to New York to finally get the help we needed. As a last effort before making that commitment, I met with Brandi Solace. To my surprise, she was able to interpret not only the extensive lab work we had done, but the DNA test as well and was familiar with the same book by the doctor in New York. Although we still have a long way to go, my son has already shown signs of improvement with decreased anxiety, increased interpersonal communication and better sleep. After being on my own for so long and the number of books and research I have had to read to find answers, I learned enough to recognize that Brandi had the education and experience to help us navigate this complicated disorder. I look forward to continuing to work with Brandi and I am so grateful to have help so close to home.

I am completely thrilled with the services provided to me by Solace Natural Medicine and Dr. Brandi. I greatly appreciate Dr. Brandi’s approach as a real ND who went through medical school to become a doctor specializing in how the human body works not just to prescribe medicine for the symptom but find the cause behind the symptom and how that in turns effects other things. As a woman in my 30ies with two little kids, my body went through some crazy things after having my little darlings. Dr. Brandi helped me understand what sleep deprivation, an undetected food allergy, and too much caffeine were doing to me. I am a new woman and couldn’t be happier with the state of health that I am in! Thank you so much Dr. Brandi!!!

Results. That would be the one word I would use to describe my experience that I have had with Dr. Solace. She has helped me and continues to help me with post partum hormonal issues, as well as overall good health and wellness for my body. Her positive attitude and genuine concern for her patient's well being makes her practice one that is truly unique. I would recommend Dr. Solace to anyone who is looking for getting their bodies back to a balanced and healthy shape, as they were designed to be.

I have not had serious medical problems, but consistent chronic lesser problems that effect the quality of life. Traditional medicine has treated the symptoms but never a long term, less expensive treatment. Through naturopathy I have gained the best of both worlds through Western medicine and diet/nutirition treatment. It has been a change of life for both myself and my daughter who suffers from similar problems. Our medical expenses are a fraction of what they have been in years past. I had thought perhaps that I would need to retire sooner than I would like, due to health issues. I feel like I have my life back.
