Naturopathic medicine on San Diego's Adams Avenue corridor comes through Dr. Joseph Scarpuzzi, ND, who practices from 3239 Adams Avenue in Normal Heights, the 92116 ZIP. Scarpuzzi holds naturopathic doctor credentials through the California Naturopathic Medicine Committee, and his clinical focus covers anti-aging medicine, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, platelet-rich plasma injections, gut-health restoration, and food-intolerance testing using IgG antibody panel analysis. The diagnostic approach begins with comprehensive blood-chemistry panels — thyroid cascades, metabolic markers, inflammatory indices, and sex-hormone profiles — to identify dysfunction patterns before prescribing botanical formulas, nutraceutical protocols, or injection therapies. Patients whose naturopathic plans include primary-care coordination work concurrently with Vitae Medicine, whose conventional-medicine framework complements the botanical and nutritional prescriptions Scarpuzzi provides. Men's health cases including testosterone optimization, prostate-support protocols, and performance-recovery nutrition receive the same root-cause methodology applied to women's hormonal transitions and fertility preparation. The Adams Avenue location sits midway between 30th Street and Felton, within the block cluster that includes integrative-health practitioners alongside the restaurants, bars, and retail shops that give Normal Heights its independent commercial identity. Aesthetic naturopathy services include PRP microneedling for collagen induction and natural facial-rejuvenation protocols that avoid synthetic fillers in favor of growth-factor-driven tissue repair. Gut-health cases follow a remove-replace-reinoculate-repair protocol, with stool-analysis panels informing probiotic strain selection and antimicrobial botanical timing. Wellness-oriented patients bridging naturopathic care with fitness programming refer to San Diego Wellness Source for movement plans that align with their metabolic and hormonal recovery timelines. IV nutrient therapy and intramuscular vitamin injections round out the treatment menu for patients with absorption deficiencies or acute immune-support needs.
