1 in 4 American women is taking medication for mental health problems. Today we have a mismatch of our paleolithic genes and modern lifestyle. Depression is not a disease. You can not diagnose a mood disorder as you can with diabetes in a blood test or hypertension with a blood pressure reading.
We are finding that mood disorders are not brain problems but can be triggered by food intolerances, blood sugar imbalances, chemical exposures, thyroid dysfunction, and nutrient deficiency along with gut infections.
Anxiety is the most common mood disorder and affects over 40 million adults in the US or 18% of the population. That’s nearly 1 in every 5 people is experiencing anxiety. This is a modern phenomenon.
Depression is the leading cause of disability affecting over 15 million adults and is more prevalent in women. 80% of those with clinical depression receive no intervention. This is a real problem since depression is very treatable.
Balance Your Moods
Find the root cause of your mood swings and build holistic lifestyle elements to balance your mood.
Custom Plan
We’ll help build you a custom plan to help balance your moods with a holistic lifestyle approach.
Holistic Approach
Avoid unnecessary medications that only treat the symptoms. Get to the root cause of your mood imbalances.
If you have a mood disorder, your general emotional state or mood is distorted or inconsistent with your circumstances and interferes with your ability to function. You may be extremely sad, empty or irritable (depressed), or you may have periods of depression alternating with being excessively happy (mania).
Anxiety disorders can also affect your mood and often occur along with depression.
The most powerful tools for healing include the ability to send the body signals of safety through meditation, diet, movement, restorative sleep and social support. Obtain adequate sunlight exposure, avoiding toxic chemicals and certain OTC and RX meds. Evaluating hypothyroidism as an overlooked cause for depression, nutrient status, gut infections, and HPA-Axis dysregulation will help in assessing the root cause.

I go when I need a tune up or my back gets achy and I can't stretch my way out of it. Dr Paul finds a way to help using a variety of methods that I don't always understand. He knows a lot of approaches to health and brings that all together to make me feel healthy. Part of his approach is making a personal connection to patients. He keeps up a running good natured conversation about my hobby the whole time he is working on fixing what I messed up by not taking care of myself well enough. I'm lucky folks don't know how good this guy is or I wouldn't be able to get an appointment.
Dr Paul is the man! I’d refer him to anyone that is interested in improving their overall health and wellness. Super knowledgeable, attentive, easy to talk to, and open minded. I look forward to every appointment on my calendar and hope to keep seeing him for many years to come!
I’m looking for alternative and natural healthcare. I can count on Dr. Paul and his staff to provide it. Common illnesses can be treated with chiropractic, acupuncture and natural remedies that Dr. Paul uses to treat his patients. I’m grateful for having Northstar available to meet my natural healthcare needs.
Great staff with awesome doctors specially doctor Paul is the best as a business owner I’m standing all day at work and I go in for lower back pain I always come out feeling better they definitely take care of me I highly recommended also they offer different resources for your health like vitamin shots, B12, detox and more check them out…..
If you’re looking for a chiropractor who goes above and beyond, Dr. Paul is your man. He gets to the root of your problem in a holistic and natural way. Doesn’t throw pills at you to test symptoms; he treats the cause. I always feel great leaving there and highly recommend this practice for all your chiropractic and medical (Dr. Paul is also a nurse practitioner!) needs.
Very impressed with this clinic. I've dealt with back pain for a long time and Dr. Paul is very helpful & patient. I'd recommend to anyone local who is having a hard time finding someone reliable.
Dr. Paul has made all the difference in the healing we have experienced! We are so grateful to him and all the staff.<br><br>Blessings to you all and your families!
I was very impressed with the services provided at NORTHSTAR. Dr Paul took time explaining his approach and treatment plan following my evaluation. Dr Paul and his staff are very attentive and thorough with getting started with services.
Dr. Paul and staff continue to provide personal, thorough, informed, thoughtful and professional services, encompassing both where each patient is at the moment as well as a broader picture of each individual’s history and health goals.
Excellent clinic. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. The doctor consistently takes the time to listen and thoroughly understand any concerns. He looks beyond the surface of the issue and strives to identify and address the underlying cause.
Dr. Paul is amazing! I had an extreme pain in my hip flexor and unable to walk. After a fifteen minute session, pain was gone and I was able move without pain. Just wonderful staff and service. Highly recommend this place for chiropractic care.
Dr Paul and the staff are always a pleasure to visit.<br>Doc works on deep level issues beyond what my skeletal system is showing in the moment. He has extremely intuitive skills<br><br>I very much enjoy each visit
Magic, hung the moon, the goods, miracle worker. These are all ways I describe Dr. Paul; if I could put him in my pocket, I would. As a patient of his for nearly a decade, I can honestly say that he has changed my life.<br><br>I initially went to him for back issues because I had shoveled heavy snow and caused a past accident injury to flare up. He not only fixed that, but also resolved my IBS, which was something I truly thought I had to live with forever more.<br>To have such a sound balance of Eastern and Western medicine at my fingertips is a gift.<br>He takes time to educate you, which is so empowering. His commitment to emotional and mental health shines through with his monthly Wellness Group that gives you even more of an opportunity to learn how to "self-serve" on some of the more Eastern techniques, if you are interested.<br>Dr. Paul's focus and tenacity to make sure that his patients walk out of his office and back into their lives with a body/system that is fully functioning and working harmoniously is something I love about him. He doesn't stop working on an issue until it is resolved.
Staff are all very patient and nice. Not much of waiting time and Dr. Paul is great at what he does. The energy of the place starts to heals you from the moment you enter the door.
I cannot say enough about Dr. Paul and the entire team at Northstar Integrated Health. From the moment I walked through the door, I felt heard, respected, and genuinely cared for. Dr. Paul takes the time to truly listen to patient concerns, thoroughly investigates the root causes through appropriate testing, and offers real, effective solutions—not just temporary fixes to mask symptoms.<br><br>His approach is refreshing and empowering. He treats the body as a whole and focuses on reversing the actual causes of health issues. His depth of knowledge and commitment to healing are extraordinary. After years of frustration and disappointment with traditional doctors, I finally feel like I’m on a path to real recovery.<br><br>The staff at Northstar are equally impressive—kind, professional, and always willing to go the extra mile to make patients feel comfortable and supported. My experience here has truly restored my faith in the medical system. I highly recommend Northstar Integrated Health to anyone seeking not just answers, but real healing.
