    Episode #422: The Body's Remarkable Power to Heal with Dr. Aaron Hartman

    Dr. Aaron Hartman is a triple board-certified physician and the founder and owner of Richmond Integrative Medicine, whose path in medicine has never been typical. It began when he and his wife adopted their daughter Anna, who was born with cerebral palsy along with countless dietary issues. He and his wife were told that their child would never walk, talk, or see. After consulting with multiple specialists, he realized that our current healthcare system does not have all the answers. His wife refused to give up hope, and she ultimately pointed him to functional medicine. After years of traditional family practice, he felt called to make a dramatic shift. As a result, his daughter and other two kids began to thrive. His daughter is now 19 and thriving. Dr. Hartman now helps patients identify leverage points in key areas of their lifestyle and health that harness their body's remarkable power to heal and begin living the vibrant life they deserve. He has become the go-to doctor for difficult cases in central Virginia.        Connect with Dr. Hartman: https://richmondfunctionalmedicine.com/ https://www.facebook.com/RVAintegrative/ https://www.youtube.com/c/AaronHartmanMD https://www.instagram.com/rvaintegrative   Want to be a guest on TheFemiNinjaProject?
