Integrative Medica in Salt Lake City, Utah, offers both conventional and alternative medicine to holistically treat adult patients experiencing a variety of long-lasting debilitating conditions. Jake Schmutz, NMD, the highly educated and experienced naturopathic doctor at Integrative Medica, follows a philosophical model of naturopathy involving accurate diagnosis, identifying the cause of disease or ailment, and stimulating the body’s natural ability to heal itself to relieve symptoms and cure the disease.

Advanced medical offerings at Integrative Medica include platelet-rich plasma therapy, ozone therapy, prolozone therapy, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Unlike conventional medicine practices, your Integrative Medica doctor focuses on relieving symptoms using extensive training and skills in diet, medical nutrition, nutraceuticals, botanical, and pharmaceutical medications to offer solutions that eliminate the underlying issue rather than prescribe medication or perform surgeries to mask symptoms.
