Commitment to Healing

My focus is on healing rather than temporarily symptom relief. I am committed to helping you awaken your body’s natural healing intelligence and restore its natural balance.

Respect & Support for Your Decisions

I will not judge or criticize the decisions you make regarding your health care. I will happily collaborate with people who use a combination of natural and conventional Western medicine as well as those who prefer a solely holistic approach. Regardless of your approach, I’m always committed to helping my patients reach their full potential.

Compassion, Respect, Integrity

I strive to maintain compassion and integrity with my patients and will provide recommendations based on your individual needs—never more, never less. I treat all patients with dignity and respect. I am committed to listening to you, and to maintaining open, honest communication in order to maintain a healthy relationship so together we can ensure that you reach your goals.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, disease contains two parts analogous to the roots and branches of a tree. The symptoms are like branches, and if you only treat them, the same roots will soon grow the same symptoms again. To effectively heal, one must address the root cause of the of illness so the tree may grow healthy branches. Additionally, two people may both experience a similar disease but have very different underlying root causes. Likewise, two others may have very different diseases but have the same root cause. At Rooted Medicine, Andrea Hingst L.Ac. MSOM, draws from experiences in integrated hospitals and private practice to combine traditional Chinese therapies with modern functional medicine to identify each individual’s unique foundational imbalance to heal from the roots up.
