Serving Palm Beach Gardens since 2014, our clinic blends the best of Eastern & Western natural medicine to help you restore balance, relieve pain, and renew your energy.

Our Practice Philosophy

Dr. Bill Rice established Gardens Wholistic Health Center to create a comfortable environment where patients could receive complete, integrative care under one roof. We use natural methods that support your body’s innate ability to heal rather than mask symptoms with temporary fixes.

Our care model is built around three guiding principles:

Our Approach to Wholistic Healing

At Gardens Wholistic Health Center, our approach combines several powerful natural therapies:

Acupuncture

Needle-thin, single-use, sterile needles are placed with precision to address pain, inflammation, hormonal balance, stress, and fertility support. Many patients find the sessions deeply calming.

Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic adjustments restore proper alignment to the spine & joints, improving mobility & nervous system communication. This supports natural healing, reduces pain, & enhances posture and overall wellness.
