Transform the Way You Feel
Health isn’t just lack of disease or your lab numbers looking fine. It is having the physical, mental and emotional resources to be out in the world doing what you’re meant to. We can guide you on your journey to achieving this.
Get StartedFor Dr. Enos
“I love working with you. I feel so thoroughly taken care of and love your approach. The treatment plan is so well thought out and I can feel a real difference in my life.”
For Dr. Enos
“Dr. Enos has treated me and three family members. We’ve been blessed with her care and recommendations. I know firsthand that she can heal through a kind of magic.”
For Dr. Schieferecke
“Since I’ve started my treatment, instead of spending three weeks each month sick, exhausted, and in pain, I’ve been able to resume living instead of just surviving… I highly recommend Dr. S. for ten out of ten medical care.”
For Dr. Schieferecke
“I finally have a practitioner that not only takes pride in her work but cares for her patient’s ultimate goal – overall good health.”
Do Any of These Sound Like You?
- You’re ready for deeply individualized care that looks at the whole of you—not just a diagnosis or a single symptom.
- You feel frustrated and unseen by brief, rushed appointments and want care that allows time for understanding and connection.
- You’re looking for a doctor who truly listens, remembers your story, and stays present and accessible throughout your healing process.
- You’re weary of medications or supplements that keep symptoms at bay but never address why they’re happening.
- You’ve been told your condition is chronic, permanent, or destined to worsen, yet something in you knows there’s more possible.
- You’ve been told your blood work and imaging look fine. You’ve been told there is nothing wrong despite fatigue, brain fog, pain, etc.….and an inherent knowing that something IS wrong.
- You want an experience that encompasses mental and emotional aspects of your well-being as well as physical.
- Conventional medical care feels like disease management and not health care.
- You’ve seen specialist after specialist, hoping for answers, yet are still left without real clarity or progress.
- Your practitioner doesn’t know what to do with you anymore or how to take you to the next level of healing.
- You want more than just being diagnosed with a disease. You want to understand how you go to this place and heal the real underlying cause.
If you are a yes to one or all of these, Healing Roots Natural Medicine has the solution for you. You will be truly seen and heard by your practitioner. We have the expertise to guide you on a healing journey that will, yes, help alleviate your symptoms but also help you understand the larger picture of how you got there in the first place and empower you in your own healing ability and powers.
This is our goal at Healing Roots Natural Medicine.

The aspect of being an ND that I love most is the privilege of witnessing patients transform over the course of our work together, not just in their physical symptoms but their mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. My patients love my “bedside” manner, my blend of medical expertise and intuition, and my thoroughly crafted treatment plans.
I have over two decades of experience in patient care that helped me craft these packages to better serve our patients in transforming their health. You can learn more about me in my bio.

HRNM offers 7 and 14 month Foundational Packages to facilitate your journey.
These FoundationalPackages are truly packages, not programs. This means that they are not a one size fits all approach to a condition or symptom. They are a truly personalized approach that allows you to engage fully in the process of healing with the full attention and expert support you are looking for. The package format allows this attention and support to be possible. It includes the majority of what most people need to be successful at the beginning of their journey to optimal wellness. Frankly, it isn’t realistic to turn chronic issues around in a real and meaningful way in a few visits.
For Dr. Enos
“I am so grateful I found Dr. Enos. From my first appointment I could tell she was extremely intelligent and knew the world of Thyroid/Autoimmunity very well. She had several different ways to work with me and address my health.”
For Dr. Enos
“Dr. Enos is the most complete doctor I’ve worked with to date. If you’re looking for someone who is going to holistically assess your health and give you long-term strategies for success, she’s your person.”
For Dr. Schieferecke
“When I first came to Dr. Schieferecke, she was validating and empathetic to everything I was feeling. She genuinely wanted to help me feel better mentally and physically.”
For Dr. Schieferecke
“As a patient of Dr. Kristina, I look forward to our sessions. I always feel like she listens to my concerns and takes what I say to heart.”
What makes Healing Roots different?
- Packages allow frequent touch points so that we can truly get to know you and provide the level of care you deserve.
- Access to your doctor and support is abundant!
- Packages allow us to offer so much additional support on top of regular office visits, including our Companion Course, specialty appointments, handouts, coaching calls and more. (See below for more details.)
- The more frequent appointments allow us to build on what we’re doing and to asses how life impacts you, which is important in identifying triggers and understanding root cause. If you want health care that truly gets at the root cause and helps you make meaningful change, you need to think about seeing your doctor differently. Think of it more like seeing a personal trainer or a therapist. You would never go to see one of these for 10 minutes a couple of times yearly and expect to get anywhere. We all know that the work you do with a personal trainer or a therapist builds on itself AND it changes based on what is happening in your life. A successful healing journey with your doctor isn’t any different and our Commitment Packages reflect this.
- Many aspects of root cause can only be revealed with time. You can get great information from a thorough history and testing but running and responding to tests is only an outer layer of what is really going on (keep reading below for more on this).
- Our packages encompass what most patients need to turn chronic disease around so that you have a realistic idea of what it takes up front in terms of time and financial investment. This minimizes surprises or the likelihood of a person starting something they can’t ultimately afford financially or timewise.
Imagine for a minute that you’re an onion where every layer reflects an aspect of your health journey up until now. It includes all the events, factors and symptoms that have led to where you are today. The outer most layer is the symptoms you’re experiencing currently. Conventional medicine is often mainly concerned with those symptoms. Functional medicine dives into the next layers by running functional tests and treating the test results. While this type of approach is helpful and we utilize it too, it doesn’t actually get most people to the core of the onion (or root cause). We have the tools and experience to take you beyond the outer layers and into the root.
At HRNM, we look at the body as having the innate ability to heal if we give it the right information and take away obstacles. To accomplish this, we have a huge toolbox that includes nutrition, lifestyle, herbal medicine, physical medicine, homeopathy and more. Our appointments combine aspects of doctoring, therapy, nutrition and coaching to provide truly holistic care. Conventional medicine relies mainly on pharmaceuticals and surgery, which have an important role in medicine, but are inherently reactive rather than proactive and root focused. You can absolutely combine our care with conventional care.
The details of our Foundational Packages
We offer 7- and 14-month Foundational Packages. Since these are packages and not programs, the details and specifics will be unique to you, but this gives you an idea of what everyone gets.
Initial Visit
120 min
Thorough medical, social and environmental history. Lifestyle review to identify which Foundations for Healing need to be established, improved or continued. Symptom and organ system analysis. Functional and nutritional physical. Autonomic nervous system assessment using a Nerve Express.
Coaching/Support Sessions
20-30 min each
The first session is 7-10 days after your first appointment. It is designed to support you in successfully implementing your plan and to answer any questions that have come up since your first appointment. We always do this first one but can use these at any time during your package.
Here are some examples of what might be done during these sessions:
- Troubleshooting and customizing dietary changes
- Answering questions about treatment plans and general health topics you are curious about
- Accountability check-ins
First Follow-Up Visit
90 min
Review labs in depth, assess how you are responding to your initial recommendations and to lay out what we want to accomplish over the next 7-14 months.
Regular Follow-Up Visits
60 min each
Regular follows-ups are crucial for truly healing the roots and making lasting transformations. Think of our work together and the frequency with which we’ll follow up less like a doctor you would see for ten minutes a couple of times a year and more like a therapist or a personal trainer. In these relationships, you’re meeting more regularly so that we can build on what we’re doing and use the data from how life is impacting you and your symptoms to further understand what needs to happen for you to heal. We typically do these follow ups every 3-5 weeks.
Thorough Testing
Your package includes a functional blood work as well as a specialty lab. The specifics of the blood work are tailored to the individual but will often include an inflammatory panel, key vitamin and minerals, iron panel, hormones, complete thyroid panel and advanced cardiovascular testing.
You’ll be given a written and personalized interpretation based on ideal levels rather than disease or average levels. Your specialty lab will be elected according to individual needs. Options include microbiome testing, toxicity testing, advanced hormone panels, chronic panels, food sensitivity testing, cortisol rhythm, etc. You’ll receive a written personalized interpretation. See FAQs doe more information.
Specialty Appointments
Specialty appointments are therapies that will augment and accelerate your healing. Options include:
- Constitutional hydrotherapy
- Craniosacral therapy
- Nasal specifics
- Vis Dialogue
- Emotion Code
- Laser therapy
- Hydrogen ion foot baths and cupping
Foundational Packages also include:
Treatment for coughs, colds, UTIs, flus, etc. These may seem unrelated to the bigger picture, but how these are dealt with can help or hinder the progress of your health. These are a great opportunity for you to learn approaches for treating yourself and your family in a supportive, non-suppressive manner.
Purchased directly through the practice or through our online medicinary partner, Fullscript, receive a 15 or 20% discount depending on the package.
This video course is designed to increase your success and make sure we provide everyone with additional information that doesn’t always get covered in our one-on-one work. There is plenty of bonus information to deepen your healing journey as well!
Specialty Appointments are included in your package as appropriate for your healing journey.
Other available therapies include hydrogen ion foot baths, cupping, and laser therapy.
This is a comprehensive guide to support you and your whole family when sickness hits. We will also walk you through invaluable information about fevers, antibiotics and the concept of terrain, which is key to understanding both acute and chronic illnesses.
You will always have a detailed written treatment plan. We also have many handouts that help educated and instruct you.
What can you expect as a result of your package?
Of course, our goal is to see you resolve your symptoms in a truly root cause way and to help you live your life in a state of optimal wellness. We certainly can’t promise you’ll achieve all of this in 7 or 14 months. The length of time it takes to reach optimal wellness varies greatly from person to person. However, you should feel improvement in or resolution of symptoms, and it is even possible to see reversal of disease in that time frame. You should be seeing unexpected “side-benefits.” These are things you didn’t necessarily come in for but are a sign that health is building in your body. Common examples include strong, fast-growing nails, a resolution of allergies and optimized energy.
We have additional goals as well. These include teaching you to be more in touch with the language of your body, teaching you how to treat yourself for acute illnesses in a way that builds health, teaching you food and lifestyle habits that will not only improve your current state but help prevent future disease and imbalances, and empowering you to heal. You’ll get tons of individualized support. You will be seen and heard. You will receive a wealth of expert knowledge to guide you through your journey.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. The insurance model supports quick symptom-based medicine. It isn’t designed to cover in depth, individualized care. However, you can use an HSA.
Yes, most HAS plans allow this! Do confirm the details of your plan. You can usually use it to pay for both your package and supplements.
Yes! You can pay for your packages upfront and receive a discount or you can make monthly payments. For our 7-month package you receive a $100 discount if you pay upfront. The payment plan for the 7-month package is an upfront payment of $1750 and 6 monthly payments of $500. For our 14-month package you receive a $150 discount if you pay upfront. The payment plan for the 14-month package is an upfront payment of $1750 and 6 monthly payments of $433.
Yes. Our 7-month package includes 2 “Full shebang” functional blood work panels and one additional functional test. Our 14-month package includes 3 “Full shebang” functional blood work panels and one additional functional test. This is perfect for most people. There are cases where we may need to repeat individual blood markers more often, for example TSH to monitor thyroid function, and these are usually included in the package cost. If you request or we recommend additional functional testing, the cost would not be included in the package. However, we offer these at the best possible prices.
There are many functional practitioners that recommend running thousands of dollars in labs up front. We don’t do this for several reasons. Most people simply people don’t need this much lab testing and including it would make packages too expensive for many people. For most patients, the extensive blood work and one specialty test paired with our extensive intake and in-office testing provides all the info we need to make a big difference. If more testing is appropriate, we are happy to work with you on ordering these at the best possible price.
The exact labs ordered from person to person may vary a little based on factors like whether you are a menstruating female, reviews of previous blood work and family history. The panels usually include all of the following: an iron panel (iron, ferritin, UIBC, TIBC, transferrin and transferrin saturation), vitamins (D, B12, folate, a complete metabolic panel (electrolytes, markers of kidney and liver function), hormone panel (estrogen, progesterone, 3 forms of testosterone, SHBG, DHEA, cortisol, parathyroid hormone, prolactin), thyroid panel (TSH, total T4, freeT4, total T3, freeT3, reverse T3, anti-thyroglobulin, anti-TPO), cholesterol panel, inflammation panel (hs-CRP, ox-LDL, MPO, HCY, PLAC), Hemoglobin A1c, fasting glucose, insulin, complete blood cell count, and uric acid. This is above and beyond what medical doctors are usually ordering and what insurance companies will pay for. This extensive panel gives us tons of valuable information and should be done yearly to treat chronic disease, to prevent disease and to optimize health. If you were to order these labs and pay out of pocket, the labs would have a $2500+ value.
Gut microbiome testing via stool, breath, or urine; heavy-metal toxins; non-heavy metal toxins; mold toxins; organic and microbial acids; advanced hormone testing via DUTCH; adrenal function; food sensitivities; chronic infections.
No. There is simply too much variation in what people need. You can expect to purchase about $150 to $250 in supplements, herbs and remedies each month. You’ll receive a 10-20% discount on your purchases from our online medicinary partner, Fullscript. We also carry some in office at a greater discount.
You will be prescribed supplements, herbs, and homeopathic medicines. These average $150 to $250 per month. Do remember that you will receive a discount on most prescriptions as part of your package.
Many people spend more money on food as they transition to organic foods, healthy fats and higher quality animal products.
We may recommend you make a small investment in something like a nebulizer or a sun rise alarm clock. We may recommend you do something like visit a sauna regularly. These are examples of recommendations that would be an additional investment for you, but they are never mandatory.
This will vary person to person depending on what you are already doing to support your health, like shopping for and preparing healthy meals, making time to move your body/exercise, and dedicating other time for self-care.
Estimating time spent on appointments is easier. Your first appointment will be about 2 hours, your first full follow-up will be 90 minutes, there will be 1-3 approximately weekly coaching calls in the first month lasting between 5 and 30 minutes each, and regular follow-ups approximately every 4 weeks for 30-60 minutes. Most of these can be done via telemedicine if you prefer. You may have additional in-office appointments for the bonus therapies.
After each appointment, you will need time to review your treatment plan and order supplements. Taking supplements, herbs and homeopathic medicine is not usually time consuming, but it does take some organization, or it will seem time consuming.
You will be asked to add additional items to your self-care routine daily or weekly. Many of these aren’t very time consuming, like hydrating properly or ending your showers in a cold rinse, but it does take some effort for them to become habit. Others will take more time, like nebulizing medicine or using a castor oil pack. We do our best to help you figure out how to make these things easy and to help you understand why they are important so that you feel excited about investing time in them (and yourself!).
If you’ve dealt with a chronic issue for many years, you have been diagnosed with an autoimmune condition, you have a “mystery” condition conventional medicine has failed to identify, or you are simply dedicated to the healing journey, a 14 month package is likely the best choice for you. You will have continuation options once you’ve finished your package. These include options ranging from pay per appointment to renewing for another 7 or 14 months of in-depth care.
Near the end of your initial 7- or 14-month Commitment package, we will be repeating blood work and assessing where you are at in the healing process. Most patients wish to continue care with us in some manner, and we love this. Depending on where you’re at on the journey and your personal goals, you may be ready to be in maintenance mode and check in with an appointment in 6 months to a year. Or you might recognize that the journey is deeper and more extensive for you. You can renew your package at a big discount if in depth care with specialty appointments and testing included is still right for you. We also have pay per appointment/service options.
In addition to our regular follow-ups where we will be talking about how you’re feeling and how your responding to treatment and making adjustments to your plan accordingly, we offer unique specialty appointments. These will help you to heal more quickly. We usually decide on 1-2 types of specialty appointments that are most suited to your personal needs.
You are absolutely worth this investment.
Once we review your questionnaire, we’ll contact you within 48 business hours. If the fit is good for us, you’ll have two options. The first is to enroll in your package and schedule immediately if you know you’re ready to get started in transforming your health with us. The second is to schedule a complimentary 30-minute Exploratory Consult to make sure the fit is right for you. You are under no obligation financial or otherwise by filling out the form.
