Yakima Integrative Health

Yakima Integrative Health is an acupuncturist in Yakima, WA, practicing integrative medicine that blends natural therapies with conventional care. Founded in 2007, the clinic offers naturopathic medicine, acupuncture, massage therapy, pediatrics, and dietitian services, with an emphasis on pediatrics and women's health. Patients are seen Monday through Thursday from 9AM to 5PM and on Fridays from 9AM to 3PM, and non-urgent phone calls are returned within 48 hours.

The practice takes a whole-person approach to care. Acupuncture services are rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, a system focused on restoring balance through energy flow and supported by herbs, dietary changes, and physical medicine, with particular effectiveness for pain management. Massage therapy is offered as a complement to other treatments, intended to improve circulation, ease muscle stiffness and joint inflammation, and increase flexibility. The pediatrics program emphasizes prevention, healthy breastfeeding, and lifestyle from the first days of life to support long-term wellness. Dietitian services use a patient-centered model built on nearly 20 years of experience, with patients leading the consultation and setting realistic, sustainable goals rather than focusing on restriction.

The founder and medical director is Dr. Heidi Robel, a Naturopathic Physician and Acupuncturist in practice since 2007. She holds a Bachelor of Science from the University of Washington and graduated from Bastyr University in 2007 with a Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine and a Master of Science in Acupuncture. Her work focuses on fertility, hormones, and thyroid disorders, and she is not currently accepting new patients. Dr. Joy Nauman is a licensed Naturopathic Physician providing primary care with a focus on pediatrics and women's health. She also serves as Research Director for Whole Systems Healthcare, a non-profit dedicated to advancing integrative medicine research.
