Dr. Elena Matsneva began researching ways to restore natural health almost 20 years ago. Coming to naturopathic medicine from the field of computer data processing, she is constantly looking for the best ways to restore health. To do this, she uses evidence-based data and her personal experience.
Since 2003, after her child was diagnosed with Autism with Developmental Delays, Elena has been exploring treatment options for this problem and has been sharing this information through her personal websites. She has collaborated with a number of MDs from around the world.
Since 2007 Elena has worked as a Certified Nutritional Consultant. She has consulted parents of children with Attention Deficit Disorder and Hyperactivity (ADHD), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), PANDAS/PANS and Mold Illness on nutrition, lifestyle, diet and naturopathic supplementation.
In 2008, her child was also diagnosed with Lyme disease and co-infections, which greatly expanded Elena’s area of interest.
After graduation, the area of interest of Elena has expanded significantly. It currently includes a wide variety of health problems with a focus on chronic diseases of any nature including neurological, infectious, and environmental origin.
