Brookfield’s SOPHIA Plans Mid-Winter Workshops

At SOPHIA Natural Health Center in Brookfield, practitioners employ the ancient wisdom of Chinese medicine combined with the modern science of naturopathic care to create a natural health program that is patient-specific. The group’s goal is to improve patient health and educate them on all the factors that influence health, wellness and disease. To that end, the Center will host a series of classes, open to the public, in the next couple of months.
