HOMEOPATHY
What is Homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a natural healing system that has been used worldwide for over 200 years. It was founded by the German physician Samuel Hahnemann in 1792 and is based on the "Law of Similars", which means that a substance that causes symptoms in a healthy person, can cure similar symptoms in a sick person.
Homeopathy is recognized by the World Health Organization as the second largest therapeutic system in use in the world, certainly most popular in India, South America and parts of Europe.
Homeopathy is safe, gentle and has no side effects.
Individualized Therapy
Homeopathy always treats the whole person, not just the symptoms, as the body is a complete system and needs to be seen as a whole. This way, the balance between the mind, body and spirit can be restored.
A typical consultation can last between 1-2 hours and can go into great detail of your health history to find the root of your health problem.
It is a highly individual healing modality with the sole purpose of strengthening your inner ability to heal and to help your body ward off diseases and imbalances.

HEALTH COACHING
What is a Health Coach?
A Health Coach is your support system on your way back to health, or, even better yet, to help avoid getting sick altogether. Together we look at your diet and your lifestyle-choices and evaluate what works and what does not work for your body.
We will look at possible triggers that might impact your health and find suggestions to replace them with healthier choices.
Achieve health and balance
As a Health Coach I guide you every step of the way until you have reached the goal you have set for yourself. Together we adjust your diet, your fitness routine, your sleep schedule, your stress levels, your mood - even your social life - to find your very personal way to a balanced and healthy life.
About Me
Azadeh K. Stoelken
“The art of healing comes from nature, not from the physician. Therefore, the physician must start from nature, with an open mind.” - Paracelsius
I was born into a medical family: both of my parents and my older sister are physicians. I grew up learning about medicine, its incredible power of healing, but also its limitations. However, I always felt that nature itself has all the answers. So I became an alternative health practitioner, not a medical doctor.
As a Classical Homeopath and Holistic Health Coach I offer natural and integrated health services that can support the body's healing on a deep level, with the goal to strengthen the body's own healing power.
I graduated from the Los Angeles School of Homeopathy with a Diploma in Classical Homeopathy. My extensive education and training includes a 1-year mentorship program , a 2-year associate program at the school's low income clinic in Marina del Rey, CA and an internship training at the MPK Homeopathic Medical College Hospital and Research Center in Jaipur, India.
Studying Homeopathy is a lifelong process, and I am honored to learn and have learned from internationally recognized Homeopaths such as Louis Klein, Dr. Farokh Master, Jeremy Sherr, Miranda Castro, Dr. Tarkeshwar Jain and Roger Morrison, just to name a few.
I am a Board Member of the California Homeopathic Medical Society (CHMS) and an active Advocate of Homeopathy nationwide.
In addition to my training in Homeopathy, I received my internationally recognized Certification as Holistic Health Coach from the International Association of Health Coaches and the famous Institute of Integrative Nutrition, where I learned from influential wellness experts such as Dr. Andrew Weil, Dr. Mark Hyman, Dr. Frank Lipman, Dr. Neal Barnard, Deepak Chopra and many more. I studied over 100 different dietary theories and learned how nutrition and certain lifestyle-adjustments can profoundly influence a person's journey of healing.
