Meet Gail A. Kopin, N.D.

Gail Kopin is a traditional Naturopathic Doctor (N.D.) who specializes in many facets of alternative health. Fundamental to her work is the belief that good health is possible through an emphasis on preventative care and natural choices for healthy living. Gail seeks to determine the underlying root causes of illness rather than simply treating symptoms.

Gail's personal experiences with severe health issues have helped to shape her beliefs and her essential approach towards health and her patients' overall well-being. In her thirties, Dr. Kopin was diagnosed with several severe health problems, which included unexplained MS symptoms, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, cancer, depressed immunity, heart problems, poor memory, fevers, chronic sore throats, herpes simplex, Epstein-Barr and allergies. While conventional medicine provided diagnoses and pharmaceutical treatment, she remained ill, as conventional medicine did not reveal the root cause of her problems. After consulting with a holistic physician and chiropractor, it was determined that Gail had been exposed to heavy metal toxins in a past work environment. Through natural care and alternative treatments, Gail's health issues were resolved, and today she has her health back. For this reason, Gail became a naturopathic doctor and has a life-long passion to help and teach others to manage and maintain good health.

In addition to being a naturopathic doctor, Gail is a Licensed Dental Hygienist in the State of Illinois and a Board Certified Orofacial Myologist. Gail is a Board-Certified Naturopath through the Alternative Medical Association and the Association of Drugless Practitioners. She completed all of her credentials with the highest honors. As a member of the American Naturopathic Medical Association and the International Association of Orofacial Myology, she has lectured and provided continuing education to numerous schools, universities, groups and associations.

Gail specializes in nutrition, heavy metal detoxification, cranio-sacral/myo-facial release, iridology, oral muscle disorders, habit elimination and preventative health care. She helps adults, children, the elderly and special needs patients who have not found answers to their health issues through conventional medicine and sources.
