At Clear Stream Integrative Medicine we practice individualized, holistic, and patient-centered medicine. Our approach is to address the underlying causes of health problems rather than just treating symptoms. By treating the root causes of our patients' health concerns, and educating them about their body's unique needs along the way, we help them achieve a greater sense of well-being and overall health.
We use a combination of Traditional Chinese Medicine, acupuncture and Functional Medicine to bring our patients the best of Eastern and Western, traditional and modern approaches. Depending on what approach is best for you we have a wide range of tools and treatment options. Some of our patients come to us for treatments based on Traditional Chinese Medicine such as acupuncture and herbal medicine.

Functional Medicine is an integrative, systems-based approach to health that pulls from cutting-edge Western medical research. It differs from conventional Western medicine because it recognizes the important interrelations between the systems in the body. Functional Medicine works to optimize the function of these systems, treating the body as an interconnected whole while working to find the root causes of health issues.
Many people have questions about acupuncture-what it feels like, how it works, and what to expect in a treatment. Below are answers to some of these general questions. First off, I think it is important to acknowledge that every practitioner of acupuncture is slightly different in how they practice.

Spencer is an incredible provider - I felt like I was crazy because I had lots of little things going on that were starting to pile up and bother me, so cumulatively it was taking a toll. I was getting medications thrown at me at primary care offices and generally pushed out the door, and besides hating the experience as a whole I felt pretty dismissed and like my needs weren't being heard or met.
Over the last few months I've noticed a real difference in my life - If you take Spencer's advice seriously and are willing to work with him and his recommendations, he will take good care of you! He

I feel so blessed to have found Spencer. He has changed my life in amazing and unexpected ways. I have had stomach issues, head aches and inflammation since I was young. I've had many surgeries and been on many serious medications with terrible side effects. I noticed as I aged that I seemed to be weaker and I couldn't get my strength back along with brain fog. I went to many doctors and couldn't ever find the root cause to my issues until through a friend I was referred to Spencer.
After completing a series of test, I got the results and FINALLY had hope. Spencer reviewed everything and told

Solved My Stomach and Knee Issues!
I have worked with Clear Stream Integrative Medicine for two years (locally and by telemedicine) after I couldn't find relief from Stomach Pain (bloating, aches, acid reflux) from my western medicine doctors. Also, I have been working through my arthritis in my knees and have seen much improvement.
I started working with Spencer Ames at Clear Stream and he helped me identify the issues that were causing a lot of my pain in my stomach. I learned that I had SIBO and how to treat it. With counseling, and supplements and monitoring, I feel like I can finally get

I was incredibly sick for 3 years before seeing Spencer. I took a medication for migraines that I had a severe reaction to. I went from running 6-10 miles everyday to not being able to get out of bed due to extreme fatigue, weakness, muscle pain, brain fog, and multiple other symptoms. The drs I was currently seeing, had no clue how to treat me! I had worked as a nurse for over 20 years and had to quit due to physical limitations. I was getting desperate when I found Spencer. I had never done any type of eastern treatment. After speaking with him, he seemed to have an incredible understanding of

I went to Spencer initially for a second opinion. I had gone to another integrative medicine practice where I was ordered a large amount of pricey supplements and was having a number of side effects from these. Meeting him I was impressed with his quality of presence and attunement. He spent ample time to connect with me, hear my concerns, and gather meaningful medical history. He reviewed each of the supplements and my blood work and made adjustments that proved tremendously beneficial. I also was treated with acupuncture for anemia and stress, and found relief from both. Spencer is a highly skilled

A few years ago, I was experiencing several medical problems for which I had been unable to find any resolution in the traditional medical environment (western medicine). As I continued to become more and more ill, I began to wonder if I would die before I could fine the help I needed. I was given a glimmer of hope when a co-worker revered me to a clinic for natural medicine. I was introduced to Spencer Ames, who was primarily responsible for my care. I was a little skeptical at first, because I have spent my entire career working in traditional medicine.

After years of struggling with digestive issues and feeling like there was no hope, a friend of mine recommended me to an integrative clinic where I had the pleasure of meeting Spencer. He specialized in the type of autoimmune disorder I was diagnosed with and walked me through what it was, how to live with it, what treatment options I had, and so much more. He was also my acupuncturist during this time. I will forever be grateful for the compassion I was treated with through this recovery phase and I still turn to Spencer when I have questions about my condition.
