It was so exciting to hear this knowledge…a dream come true for me. I have been seeing doctors for many years at one of the most prestigious medical university centers in the world, and I had the distinct feeling when Dr. Nancy was speaking that what she was saying was the truth. At this point in my life she is the best doctor I have ever heard speak…thank you…thank you…thank you!!!

I loved how much useful knowledge was presented so blissfully and clearly and fully and how readily digestible and absorbable and fun was all the knowledge presented. Also the interviewer was perfect with the questions--and summaries.
Being a student currently about to give a presentation of what I’ve learned, I know it takes quite alot to make a presentation that engages the audience fully and teaches them even a few concepts. I felt your presentation was A+++.

I was very very pleased with all the knowledge and wisdom you so generously shared on the call. Time went by so fast and I am happy there will be other calls.
Everything you said, either refreshed some knowledge I had forgotten about, or was totally new. Either way, it made a good impression and I am determined to follow your advises.

I loved the entire seminar. It is always wonderful to hear this knowledge. I also loved the fact that everyone listening was from all over the world.
I particularly loved the way Dr. Nancy covered each and every topic in-depth!. Just when I thought she was finished explaining a procedure, she would surprise me with even more information!
I look forward to the next teleconference.

What I loved was connecting with Truth in health. It all makes so much sense on a very real level. Dr. Nancy's expertise is very apparent and it's fun to hear this knowledge.

Number one tip I started applying right away was taking a morning walk before work.
What a dramatic change in my energy level and luck!! I feel bright, and so happy I could feel my mouth spontaneously moving up into a smile.
My students even commented to me that I looked pretty. My family is also having luck with reaching their goals as another side-effect! I'm enjoying my life so much more.
Thank you Dr. Nancy for that tremendous tip.

I thought this was a really valuable presentation. It s easy to access as a webcast, which I appreciated a lot since not every presentation that's advertised as such is actually readily available. I'm looking forward to the next presentation.

Types of Care and Recommendations Offered
Dr. Lonsdorf's consultation practice offers natural, holistic therapies for the prevention and treatment of chronic disorders. Evaluation and treatment are provided by Nancy Lonsdorf, M.D., a physician trained in Maharishi Ayurveda, nutrition and other natural approaches, with over 20 years experience. Top
What kind of conditions does your practice address?
We address the prevention and treatment of any chronic condition, meaning any non-urgent, persistent health problem. Common examples are weight loss, high cholesterol, menopausal problems, menstrual difficulties, headaches, skin problems, anxiety, sleep disturbance, digestive problems, chronic pain, arthritis, fatigue, anemia, nutritional deficiencies, premature aging, etc.
If you are not sure whether we treat your condition, please feel free to contact us.If you require a more complete modern medical approach or prescription drug usage you will be recommended to see your modern medical doctor. If you do not have a medical doctor Dr. Lonsdorf can provide recommendations for specific practitioners in some instances. Top
What kind of conditions do you NOT address?
We do not evaluate or treat acute conditions such as injuries, colds, flu, acute kidney stones, gallbladder attacks, urinary tract infections or other acute infections.
What types of therapies will be recommended for my health condition(s)?
Maharishi Integrative Medicine utilizes natural approaches that support the body’s own inner intelligence, the basis of all healing. Treatments include dietary, lifestyle, herbal, purification, stress reduction techniques, nutrition and approaches that directly rebalance and enliven the body’s deepest level—the level of the unified field at its source. These technologies utilize subtle sounds or vibrations to restore balance and health. Top
What kind of help can you provide to support my health?
Your health condition will be evaluated according to the principles of Maharishi Ayurveda and will include an assessment of your current state of balance (according to dosha theory,) the presence of any impurities (ama), your digestive power (agni,) your overall strength and healing ability (ojas), and the contribution of mental, emotional, behavioral, dietary and environmental factors to your health condition.
You will be guided in natural approaches in each of these areas to help you become truly healthy and to minimize the need for modern medicine and its side-effects.
Will Dr. Lonsdorf be my primary care physician?
Due to Dr. Lonsdorf’s educational activities, she is limiting her practice to the natural approaches of Maharishi Integrative Medicine for chronic conditions only and will NOT be providing primary care services such as acute care (colds, flu, urinary tract infections, etc.), after-hours call, medication prescriptions, doctor’s letters, physical exams, insurance or disability forms or letters, etc. Top
Can I get a prescription for blood-work or nutritional testing from Dr. Lonsdorf?
Blood-work, nutritional testing and other diagnostics may be ordered for you, or recommended through your local physician, depending on your individual needs
NOTE: Requests for prescriptions for laboratory tests and certain administrative requests made outside of a consultation are granted on an individual basis and are subject to a $49 service charge payable at the time the service is provided. This same service would cost $25 within a consultation.
If results are outside the normal range, a follow-up visit may be requested to discuss the results and receive a treatment program from the doctor. Top

Top
Will I receive an insurance form to send in to my health insurance company?
At your request, we will provide a receipt for your doctor’s visit that you can send in to your insurance company, or use for tax or Medical/Health Savings Account purposes. If your insurance covers doctors’ visits to the physician of your choice, and you have met your deductible, it often will cover about one-third to two-thirds of your visit cost.
Please keep in mind that your insurance company alone determines whether and how much they will reimburse for your visit. We encourage you to consult your insurance company before your visit if you are concerned about coverage for your visit.
If you wish to check with your insurance company, it is usually sufficient to ask them if they cover office visits to a doctor who is “out-of-plan,” or “not a preferred provider”. Your receipt will reflect the standard medical components of your visit such as the history, examination and assessment plan.
- Re Medicare: We are sorry, but this practice has opted out of Medicare. It is therefore not possible for us to submit Medicare claims for our services. You may also not use insurance that requires you to first submit to Medicare and be rejected before they will cover any costs.
- Re Telephone Consultations: Please Note: Insurance companies do not generally offer coverage for telephone consultations.
- Re Nutritional Testing: Nutritional testing is often not covered by insurance. However, some nutritional and hormone tests might be covered by your insurance, or enable you to receive a reduced rate on the tests. This will be discussed at your visit, if nutritional testing is recommended. Top
How can I keep my appointment time down to a minimum? I am on a tight budget.
The following tips will help to make your appointment most efficient:
- Let Dr. Lonsdorf know of your intention before the consultation begins.
- Fill out and email, fax or mail your forms ahead of your appointment time so that Dr. Lonsdorf can begin to review and consider your issues in advance.
- Along with the completed forms, provide a brief written summary (1 or 2 paragraphs) of the most important issue you wish to discuss, what you hope to gain from the consultation and any questions you have.
- Limit your consultation to the most important health problem you have and save other issues for a future visit. Top
Appointment Confirmation
Please be sure the appointment time you requested by email or voice message has been confirmed through email or phone by Dr. Lonsdorf or her staff before coming for your appointment. Appointments made online are automatically confirmed by the Scheduling Site. Please follow the guidelines in your confirmation about what to prepare/bring to consultation. Top
Cancellation Policy
We kindly request at least 24 hour notice should you need to cancel or reschedule. Top
