Did you know elephants have shown signs of recognizing themselves in a mirror?

In studies using the “mirror test,” some Asian elephants have demonstrated behaviors consistent with self-recognition, including using the mirror to investigate parts of their own bodies and noticing a mark placed on their head.

Passing this test is considered evidence of a form of visual self-recognition, an ability that has been demonstrated in only a limited number of animal species.

Just another fascinating glimpse into the complex minds of elephants!

Fast Fact Friday!

You may have heard that dolphins have “names” for each other, but here’s what that actually means:

Bottlenose dolphins develop an individually distinctive sound called a signature whistle. This whistle can function as a vocal identifier, allowing other dolphins to recognize who is calling.

Research has also found that dolphins can imitate the signature whistles of familiar dolphins, which may be a way of addressing or contacting a specific individual.

So while they don’t have names quite like humans do, their signature whistles may serve a surprisingly similar social function.

Pretty impressive communication for life beneath the waves!

Ozone therapy may sound unfamiliar, but it has been used in integrative medicine for decades.

Medical ozone is a carefully prepared mixture of oxygen and ozone that can be administered in several ways depending on the patient and the goal of treatment.

At North Coast Naturopathic Medicine, ozone therapy may be incorporated into an individualized treatment plan to support the body’s natural healing processes. It is often explored as part of care for chronic or complex health concerns, inflammation, immune function, circulation, and tissue recovery.

One of the things that makes ozone therapy so versatile is that there isn’t just one way to use it. Our office offers different applications, including IV ozone therapy, localized injections, and ozone bagging for targeted areas.

As with any therapy, ozone isn’t one size fits all. Your doctor can determine whether it is appropriate for you and how it may fit into your overall care plan.

Curious about ozone therapy? Give us a call to learn more.

What if the goal isn’t just to quiet discomfort, but to support the tissues involved?

PRP and Prolotherapy are regenerative injection therapies used to support the body’s natural healing response in areas affected by injury, instability, or ongoing musculoskeletal concerns.

PRP, or Platelet Rich Plasma, uses a concentrated portion of your own blood containing platelets and growth factors. It is injected into targeted areas with the goal of supporting tissue repair and recovery.

Prolotherapy takes a different approach. A specialized solution is injected into areas such as ligaments, tendons, or joints to stimulate a localized healing response and support tissue strength and stability.

Dr. Deborah Angersbach offers both PRP and Prolotherapy at North Coast Naturopathic Medicine and works with patients to determine which approach may be appropriate for their individual needs.

From knees and shoulders to hips, ankles, wrists, fingers, and the spine, regenerative medicine can offer another avenue to explore when pain or injury is limiting the things you want to do.

Dr. Angersbach is currently accepting new patients.

When Symptoms Don't Add Up, It's Time to Look Deeper!

Living with a chronic illness can be exhausting, especially when you're searching for answers. Fatigue, brain fog, chronic pain, digestive concerns, headaches, and other persistent symptoms can affect every part of daily life, yet the underlying cause isn't always obvious.

Dr. Miriam Rose Peachy works with patients facing complex chronic health concerns by taking a comprehensive, individualized approach to care. Her areas of focus include:

• Chronic complex illnesses
• Autoimmune conditions
• Mold related illness
• Lyme disease and other tick borne illnesses
• MCAS and histamine intolerance
• POTS and dysautonomia
• Chronic infections and immune system concerns

Rather than focusing on a single symptom, Dr. Peachy performs a thorough evaluation to better understand the factors that may be contributing to each patient's health challenges. Every treatment plan is personalized based on the individual's history, symptoms, examination, and, when appropriate, laboratory testing.

If you've been living with ongoing symptoms and are looking for a provider who takes the time to investigate the bigger picture, we're here to help.

Testimonial Tuesday

Sometimes the most meaningful part of a patient’s experience isn’t just finding answers. It’s finding hope again.

When health challenges have affected your quality of life for a long time, it can be difficult to imagine what feeling better might look like. Having a healthcare team that listens carefully, takes your concerns seriously, and continues looking at the bigger picture can make that journey feel a little less overwhelming.

For this patient, working with Dr. Peachey and Dr. Angersbach brought something especially meaningful: a renewed sense of possibility for the future.

That is what makes words like these so powerful to us. Every patient comes through our doors with a different story, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to provide thoughtful, individualized care along the way.
