Dr. Kaplan is committed to promoting the health and well being of his patients, no matter the age. He has patients who visit him from long distances due to the unique approach he has to help restore health. He believes that all health problems stem from one or more of three causesThe first is physical stress from trauma, the second is emotional stress, and the third is chemical stress from pollution or toxicity. These stresses result in imbalances in both the nervous system and the hormonal systems of our bodies, further resulting in chronic illness and disease. He has found that correcting these imbalances is the key to restoring health and well being.
