The Alternative Healing Network, (a 501(c)(3) non-profit) promotes the use of integrative healing arts and improves access to ‘alternative’ health care in under-served neighborhoods.

We host weekly free Integrative Health Nights (community outreach clinics) that bring Eastern and Western healing arts together and operate the Adams Avenue Integrative Health Center on a “Sliding-Scale” that helps make these essential preventative health practices affordable for your entire family.

We are the producers of the annual San Diego Healing Arts Festival and the bi-monthly Alternative Happy Hour series that combine music, (one of the greatest healing forces in the World) with other health practices to offer a fun and educational forum for experiencing new modalities of wellness.

We believe that both Western and “Alternative” medicine should be integrated for use together in hospitals and other institutions. We acknowledge the benefits of Biomedical surgery, lab tests, and pharmaceutical development as essential in fighting disease, but also see that there are often ‘alternative’ therapies which can be used to promote wellness and prevent illness from ever occurring in the first place.

We also believe that modern research trials are not conducive to proving the efficacy of an energetic or spirit based medicine and hope to create a new standard in evaluative techniques and lab findings.
