ND895-licensed in California, Dr. Erin Gattuso, ND practices in Point Loma's Liberty Station on Truxtun Road. The naturopathic scope centers on botanical medicine with custom tincture blends formulated per patient pattern, an internal-medicine approach addressing hormonal and digestive root causes that runs parallel to the acupuncture-and-cupping work at Lightbody Acupuncture. Credentials include a Bastyr University California Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine earned through a 4-year program with over 4,100 clinical hours, plus a Bachelor of Science from the University of Pittsburgh in neuroscience and chemistry. Hands-on modalities layer on top of the botanical work — Upledger Institute-trained CranioSacral Therapy, Barral Institute-trained Visceral Manipulation, and functional neurology evaluation from Robert Melillo's curriculum — physical-medicine mechanical work for spinal adjustment and movement rehab remains outside the ND scope and routes to Community Care Physical Therapy- Liberty Station. Pediatric care, autonomic dysfunction, PCOS, ADHD, allergies, migraines, and chronic asthma fall within the internal-medicine focus, with breathwork facilitation offered as an additional track for patients working on nervous system regulation. The most involved protocol is multi-system chronic illness management — combining custom botanical tinctures, homeopathic remedies, craniosacral therapy, visceral manipulation, and functional neurology evaluation across 6-to-12-month treatment windows for autonomic dysfunction and hormonal cascades unresponsive to conventional care.
