Dr. Andy Swanson, ND, LAc
Naturopathic Physician | Integrative Medicine | Neuro-Rehabilitation and Recovery
Dr. Andy Swanson is a licensed Naturopathic Physician and Classical Chinese Medicine practitioner who brings over two decades of clinical experience to integrative medicine and recovery. A graduate of the National University of Naturopathic Medicine in Portland, Oregon (2005), Dr. Swanson combines modern diagnostic tools with time-honored global healing traditions to support whole-person recovery—body, mind, and spirit.
Grounded in anatomy, physiology, and the diagnostics, his work integrates laboratory testing, imaging, and evidence-based natural therapies. At the same time, his deep study of Chinese medicine, Qi Gong, and indigenous healing traditions allows him to address the emotional, energetic, and spiritual roots of imbalance.
Dr. Swanson’s approach recognizes that emotional regulation, belief systems, and nervous system health profoundly influence the body’s ability to heal. He incorporates acupuncture, Qi Gong, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) to restore balance and resilience in patients recovering from addiction, trauma, and chronic stress.
With twenty years of clinical experience in IV Nutritional Therapy, Dr. Swanson specializes in restoring depleted systems through individualized nutrient formulations that support detoxification, neurotransmitter balance, and energy recovery. This approach is particularly beneficial for patients facing fatigue, burnout, digestive disorders, chronic pain, and mood-related conditions such as anxiety, depression, and substance use disorders.
His background in sports medicine and pain management further allows him to address the physical toll of addiction, injury, and chronic stress through therapies such as acupuncture, bodywork, spinal adjustments, and regenerative injection treatments including prolotherapy, PRP, and prolozone therapy.
Dr. Swanson’s commitment to healing is deeply personal. After overcoming a severe post-viral neurological illness at age 23, he developed an enduring focus on the brain and nervous system. His clinical work includes supporting recovery from concussions, traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, insomnia, and other neurological conditions. He is also a contributing author to The Concussion Repair Manual by Dr. Dan Engle.
His multicultural and holistic perspective is further shaped by his apprenticeship in Yaqui herbal medicine in Mexico and his fluency in Spanish. He welcomes both English- and Spanish-speaking patients into his practice.
Through an integrative, compassionate, and deeply embodied approach, Dr. Swanson helps patients restore balance, vitality, and self-awareness—empowering lasting healing from the inside out.
