Holistic Health Approach with Dr. Pistoia in Farmington, CT
Dr. Jared C. Pistoia, ND
Licensed Naturopathic Physician
I'm Dr. Pistoia, your trusted source for clear and truthful information about your health.
With over 15 years in health and wellness, I practice root-cause medicine that integrates psychology, lifestyle, and individualized natural treatments. I work with adults and young adults who are ready to move beyond temporary fixes and engage in real, lasting healing.
My approach combines thoughtful clinical assessments, therapeutic counseling, and tools such as biofeedback (ZYTO scan), with a particular emphasis on classical homeopathy tailored to each person’s unique presentation.
Struggling with chronic symptoms?
Chronic symptoms can be frustrating, exhausting, and confusing. Whether you’ve received a diagnosis or are dealing with symptoms that don’t yet have a clear explanation, it’s common to get stuck in a cycle of tests, treatments, and unanswered questions. I want you to know that your symptoms are not random. They're signals.
My work is to help you understand what those signals are pointing to, uncover their underlying causes, and support your body, mind, and nervous system to restore balance. Together, we’ll focus not only on relieving what you’re experiencing now, but on addressing the patterns that have been driving your symptoms so you can feel better and stay well over time.

Is it Time for a Different Approach?
Have you followed the usual approach—tests, treatments, supplements, or specialists—and still aren’t getting better?
In my experience, this often happens because most approaches focus on managing symptoms rather than understanding what's actually driving them. That can bring temporary relief, but it rarely resolves the underlying patterns that keep your body stuck,
My approach is different. I don’t simply prescribe remedies and send you on your way. I work with you to understand why your symptoms are there, how they developed, and what needs to shift in your body, your mind, and your life so you can start to heal and grow in a sustainable way.
Let's identify and treat the true cause.
Symptoms are your body’s way of communicating that something in your internal or external environment is out of alignment. My work begins by listening to those signals and helping you understand what they're pointing toward.
Rather than chasing isolated lab values or suppressing symptoms, I focus on uncovering the underlying patterns that have been shaping your health over time. This includes how your nervous system responds to stress, how your beliefs and experiences influence your body, and how your daily habits either support or undermine your wellbeing.
Sometimes the true cause of symptoms leads us back to earlier chapters of your life: formative experiences, unresolved emotional trauma, or relationship dynamics that still affect how you think, feel, and react today. Other times, the deeper drivers are more present-day: sleep, nutrition, movement, workload, emotional overwhelm, or patterns in current relationships.
By bringing clarity and awareness to these connections, we create the conditions for real, lasting change. When the root cause is understood and addressed, healing is no longer about managing symptoms, but becomes about restoring balance, resilience, and a deeper sense of alignment in your life.
