Michelle
M. Dillon, N.D. is a Naturopathic Physician who is an expert in in Classical
Homeopathy and applied kinesiology. She is a native of Florida and is
an alumnus of Florida State University where she received her bachelor’s
degree in Pre-Physical Therapy and Exercise Science. After graduating

from the nationally accredited Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine
in Arizona.
Treating Christian women with concerns ranging from anxiety and mild depression, to polycystic ovarian syndrome, infertility, and menopausal symptoms are a passion of Dr. Dillon's. She loves to connect with people and meet them where they are to help them feel better, not just physically, but mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. "I treat the whole person, not just their symptoms. God created us all as individuals, so each of us should be treated as individuals when we aren’t feeling well." Dr. Dillon also loves to treat children who suffer from allergies to A.D.D as well. "Homeopathy is a wonderful tool in treating anyone because it is so gentle, yet so effective!"
Dr. Dillon spent the majority of her clinical training specializing in Classical Homeopathy. Classical Homeopathy, when well practiced, is the most gentle but yet the most powerful medicine there is, working by stimulating the body to heal itself. Classical Homeopathy is effective because it is actually stimulating the body to heal itself. It is safe for everyone including infants, the elderly and even women who are pregnant or nursing. "If you want something that is gentle, effective, and treats the whole person, then Homeopathy is for you."
Applied Kinesiology (AK) is a wonderful modality because it gives the physician the ability to determine what may be askew in the body. The combined terms "applied" and "kinesiology" describes the basis of this system, which is the use of manual muscle testing to evaluate body function through the dynamics of the musculoskeletal system. "The physician’s highest and only calling is to restore the sick to health’ and that is what I intend to do."
