Beyond the symptoms

There is nothing more frustrating than feeling lousy and experiencing ongoing symptoms and being told:
“All of your tests are normal.” or “We can’t find anything wrong with you.”
Or possibly worse… pursuing treatments with side effects that make you feel terrible.
You’re exhausted by how your illness controls your life, and you’re tired of pursuing treatments that only mask symptoms without addressing the underlying cause.
You just want your life back.

Finding True Relief: A Patient’s Shift from Prescription Meds to Functional Medicine
“For over 15 years I used prescription medication to ease my migraines until the side effects got to be too much. Sometimes the meds helped and other times the migraine won, and I was in pain for days. I’m so grateful that Dr. Egeland has found the root cause(s) of my migraines. Through lab testing, Dr. Egeland has helped me to discover and understand the deeper issues going on within my whole body. Without specific testing, I was grabbing at straws trying things that did not work, going from doctor to doctor and spending wasted time and money. She’s given me many tools to heal my whole system including specific therapies, lifestyle choices, and supplements.”

On the cutting-edge
Functional Medicine
Your body functions very much like an ecosystem. Factors like your digestive health, nutritional status, genetic susceptibilities, physical and emotional stress, sleep, and your environment are all interconnected. When all these factors are addressed, healing occurs. For example, in over 90% of the cases we see, we trace the root cause of any illness to gut imbalances.
Combining traditional naturopathic medicine with science-based testing and treatment methods gives you access to the most cutting-edge and transformational tools for complete healing. Learn more about the naturopathic and functional medicine approach.

If you’re ready for a life-changing healthcare experience that helps you heal and thrive, let’s connect.
It’s time to let your vitality shine!
The good news is that we do not bill insurance, Medicare or Medicaid. The reason this is a good thing is because it means we aren't limited in the types of testing we can order for you, or how long we can spend with you in appointments. Our patients have been glad that they stepped outside of the insurance model because it finally allowed them to get the testing and answers they'd been looking for!
We fully understand the financial challenge this presents to some individuals. Unfortunately, at this time, it is not feasible for us to participate in the insurance networks, and Colorado insurance companies do not allow naturopathic doctors to participate.
Although we do not bill insurance directly, most patients with Health Savings Accounts (HSA) or Flex Spending Accounts (FSA) can use their respective cards to pay for services, lab tests and supplements through our office.
We can also provide you with a superbill of services, which can be submitted to your insurance company (excluding Medicaid, Medicare or Kaiser) for possible reimbursement.
A very small percentage of our patients have received insurance reimbursement for visits, lab tests and/or supplements, but it varies greatly depending on your plan.
Since every patient’s plan is personalized, the cost can vary. Please schedule a discovery call to learn more.
Yes, monthly payment plans are available. We do accept all major credit cards, Flex Spending (FSA) cards, and Health Savings (FSA) cards. Special rates are available for active or retired military, public servants, and health care professionals.
Our clinic does not provide basic annual physicals, pap smears, or general primary care services. Therefore, we recommend that you maintain a relationship with your personal physician or other licensed primary care provider for emergencies and basic health care needs. When appropriate, we do conduct physical exams related to your specific symptoms and health concerns.
Dr. Alison is committed to providing highly personalized and compassionate care that addresses the root cause of your health challenges. She has a talent for being able to solve even the toughest cases.
For many patients, when they find us they’ve already visited multiple doctors, and other types of practitioners. They’ve tried special diets, supplements, and other solutions yet haven’t found the relief they are seeking.
What we do at Aura is highly specialized. We assess our patients on a much deeper level because we understand how to navigate even obscure medical specialties such as environmental medicine – in other words – how toxic exposures and specific types of infections can be the biggest drivers of your symptoms. This specialty, among others, is what makes us unique and able to diagnose and treat the trickiest cases.
Gaining expertise in these areas requires a lot of additional training, and if you happen to go to a place that doesn’t have a deep understanding of these concepts or know how to address them, then your results will probably be limited or short-lived. Because we know what to look for and how to treat the problem head-on, choosing to work with Aura will save you a lot of time and resources in the long run since you won’t be going in circles.
Naturopathy is a system of medicine that prioritizes natural, non-invasive therapies to support the body's self-healing mechanisms. Functional medicine emerged from the principles of naturopathic medicine. Functional medicine is simply the coined term for an approach to health care that is holistic and patient-centered, and incorporates the latest scientific understanding about how environmental and lifestyle factors interact with individual biology to influence sickness and health. Like naturopathy, functional medicine aims to prevent disease and help the patient live with more vitality.
True healing takes time, which is why we offer 6- and 12-month programs. We offer one-time visits to our patients who have completed the program on an as-needed basis.
We ask you to commit to the Whole Health Transformation Program because we have not seen a high level of success when patients don't allow adequate time for focused effort and treatment. Habits, patterns, and chronic health conditions don't develop overnight and you shouldn't expect them to turn around overnight, either. Stubborn or complex health issues involve multiple contributing factors, and they aren't resolved in a day, a week, or even a month.
Our program is designed to give you all of the tools, knowledge, strategies and accountability you need to get you on the path to total wellness. It is a comprehensive plan designed to help you create a new, healthier and vibrant YOU from the inside out.
Our patients also find that when they really stop and consider how much they are paying for insurance deductibles, expensive co-pays, treatments and supplements that aren’t working, the cost of strained relationships, jumping from practitioner to practitioner or “piecemealing” different therapies, PLUS the time they are losing from work etc., our program pays for itself (and then some) very quickly.
Depending on your circumstances, there may be other options. In your Discovery Call with Dr. Alison, you can learn about the program options that would best fit your unique case.
Yes. All visits are one-on-one with the doctor in person at our office or online through HIPAA-secure video.
