At the Cincinnati Health Institute, we are committed to providing comprehensive, patient-centered care that not only treats diseases but also supports long-term wellness to improve quality of life. 

Here, we aim to redefine the future of healthcare through a holistic and personalized approach. We do not only manage symptoms, rather we prioritize uncovering the root causes of health issues. Our team of experts combines cutting-edge functional medicine with a deep understanding of each individual’s unique genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors.

Our Team

With a dedicated team of doctors and therapists, CHI carries out its duty of improving lives on a daily basis. It is believed to be a strength of this institute to have such a committed team of therapists that improve the institute’s operations. Ann Marie had the opportunity to work with Dr. Woeste for 30 years. She brings rich experience to the clinic, and her consistent dedication to the practices displays reliability to the patients. Likewise, Stinna has been with CHI for approximately 10 years. This long-term commitment of the staff has formed stability and trust among patients. 

Focus on Personalized Care

The relationship between the staff and the patients at CHI is exemplary. The clinic’s approach is to provide for each patient’s unique needs, allowing a space of deep understanding by the staff. The benefit of having committed old team members is that they know the complexities of each patient’s history, which helps in providing them with personalized attention.

The CHI Journey

Cincinnati Health Institute (CHI) was established in 1993 after Dr. Gregory Woeste’s visionary beliefs. It was founded on a mission to make people aware of natural healthcare solutions. Dr. Woeste was dedicated to promoting broad health practices, which eventually made the institute come into existence. Ahead of this in 2012, Dr. Andrea Violette contributed to improving the services of this institute, which led to the development of the Cincinnati Health Institute store. 

Dr. Greg Woeste, being a chiropractor since 1990, brought extensive experience to the institute. The clinic’s reputation excelled with his expertise in the field and further received significant recognition for its enhanced services by Dr. Andrea Violette’s knowledge and efforts. 

The institute has had noticeable growth in all these years. The chiropractic clinic evolved into a holistic health institute that offers multiple healthcare solutions. The foundation of the CHI store in 2012 was another turning point for the institute.

The Philosophy of Health

The institute’s philosophy is embedded in a comprehensive approach to health, with the use of natural and chiropractic medicine to respond to numerous health issues. CHI has a patient-centric approach that ensures overall well-being by being inclusive in the care plans.

Education

Education being the fundamental element of CHI’s vision empowers the patients with knowledge about natural health solutions. Dr. Woeste and Dr. Violette help people make decisions about their well-being that can result in more effective health outcomes by educating them.

Community

CHI acts as a nucleus for the community, where patients are valued as individuals. The long-term presence of the dedicated team at CHI plays an imperative role in providing a sense of trust in patients. For this reason, the institute proves to be more than a healthcare provider as it builds a strong community.

The Plan

With the continuous growth and evolution of CHI, providing exceptional care with natural health principles remains the mission. The institute further looks forward to assisting the community to achieve wellness through innovative treatment options, education, and an all-inclusive approach to care.

FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE

Functional medicine is an evidence-based approach that represents the interplay between every system within the body. It changes the mindset of medical practice from a traditional disease-centered focus to a patient-centered approach. Functional medicine practitioners give time to their patients, understand their medical history and treat the patient as a whole, instead of treating symptoms separately.

The Functional Medicine Approach

• Personalized Patient Care: Each patient receives unique treatment based on their specific needs, considering their environmental exposures, lifestyle choices, and genetic makeup. Starting with basic testing, health-based questionnaires, medical history, and lifestyle information to make an outline. The data assists doctors in identifying factors affecting overall health and making appropriate recommendations. 
• Patient Empowerment: All advice and recommendations are given to empower patients in making their decisions. They get motivated to start their wellness journey after having to learn about the significance of providing foundational requirements to their bodies.  
• Reliability in Relationship: The approach considers empathy, which allows doctors and therapists to see patients with more than a list of symptoms. This philosophy instills a trust-based relationship between doctors and patients.
• Commitment: Functional medicine demands a strong dedication from both doctor and patient to take necessary healthcare steps. It is also important to make patients understand that the quick-fix mentality does not work in order to receive true healing.

Functional Medicine vs. Conventional Medicine

One thing that distinguishes functional medicine from the conventional one is the approach to diseases. Functional medicine applies a systems approach that recognizes root causes and works on all affected systems naturally to restore function and wellness. Whereas conventional medicine typically responds to symptoms while dysfunction continues to stay because the root cause remains untreated.

Our Services

• Hormone Testing: Checking hormone levels to see if a hormone imbalance could be causing health issues. Typically, saliva or blood tests are done, but it varies with each patient.
• Nutrient Testing: Nutrient deficiencies can cause serious health problems. Nutrient testing detects deficiencies that could be a cause of an underlying dysfunctionality.
• GI Testing: Personalized testing for gut issues such as leaky gut and SIBO, along with gut healing approaches.
• Genetic Testing: A wide range of genetic tests are offered and incorporated into some functional medicine treatments.
• Detox Programs: The detox programs are designed to expertly deal with toxins affecting the overall health.
• Anti-Inflammation Protocols: Inflammation can cause a variety of issues, followed by multiple symptoms. Inflammation is targeted with different techniques based on individual needs.
• Diet Protocols: Diet protocols are given to the patients according to their specific dietary needs and lifestyle, as every body works differently.

Important Note for Functional Medicine Patients

Functional medicine does not replace primary care at Cincinnati Health Institute. Patients must have their personal primary care physician for routine health tests and acute medical conditions. We do not provide any urgent or emergency service.
