FOCUS ON HEALTH
S P R I N G
Spring is the season to start focusing on leading a
more healthful, well-balanced life. Time to off-load
some stress, get outdoors, time to enjoy the beauties
and challenges of the outdoor wonderland that is
Sisters Country.
It’s also an injury-prone season, since we all tend
to want to do too much too soon, to tackle the yard

work all at once or hit the trail for miles and miles.
Whether you are looking to be more health-con-
scious and active, or trying to avoid or recover from
the strains of being too active, you can find the ser-
vices you need in Sisters.

make your life more healthful and fulfilling this year.

Dr. Kim Hapke
It happens to all of us at some point — we’re
confronted with health issues and a decision: Do
nothing, or go on medications?
“Natural medicine can fill that gap and be really
effective,” says Dr. Kim Hapke.
Dr. Hapke can suggest safer alternatives
and/or suggest ways that you can use natural
medicine to augment medications to mitigate side-
effects or improve results. It’s important that you
don’t tinker on your own — you need to have the
help of an expert, and that is Dr. Hapke. With in-
depth knowledge and access to products of known
and consistent high quality, she can help you get
the results you want safely.
And if you’re worried about expense, Dr. Hapke
can help. In fact, she can often help you winnow
down the amount of stuff you’re purchasing and
taking.
“I can work with people’s budgets and get them
treatment that works within their budget,” she says.
