Meet the doctor
My name is Ashley de Luna
I am a naturopathic doctor and yoga instructor living in San Diego, CA
My love for medicine began as a curiosity in the true healing capabilities of the human body. The more that I explored different specialties of medicine, the more I found that the body must be looked at as a whole. Everything is intricately connected.
When I found naturopathic medicine - a fieId of healthcare that understood and celebrated this interconnected relationship, I knew I had found my calling.
I am passionate about strengthening the relationship with the self in order to understand what each unique individual needs to thrive. True health is about self-exploration & supporting the body’s ability to heal. True health is about finding the root cause of imbalance - whether that be physical, mental, or spiritual.
My mission is to help you understand how to nourish your body, feed your soul, and journey toward optimal well-being.

WHAT IS IT ANYWAY?
Naturopathic medicine utilizes the healing power of nature to stimulate the body’s ability to heal & thrive. It is built upon the foundation that the natural state of the body is health. Health is found when living in connection and balance to the earth and to ourselves. This beautiful art of medicine focuses on the root cause of illness rather than treating symptoms. You are seen as a whole, not as your illness or symptom of imbalance. Naturopathy focuses on optimizing healing and preventing chronic disease so that you can live your best life
