By Practitioners, For Practitioners
Whether you’re brand new to us or a long-time patron of our herbal, homeopathic, and nutritional products, you may not know the full story of Energique. We are a professional brand supplying natural remedies exclusively to qualified holistic healthcare practitioners, but we are also more than that – an employee-owned company in the heartland of Iowa and a formulary offering the wisdom and experience of multiple generations of Naturopathic Doctors, who are among the most highly trained experts in natural medicine. Read on to discover more about who we are, and what exciting changes we have in store for 2023.
Who We Are:
-Founded for Practitioners, by a Practitioner: the natural healing profession encompasses many disciplines, from holistic MDs to energy-based practitioners and everyone in between. Regardless of one’s chosen specialty, one thing that unites alternative healers is a respect for the elders who have gathered and in some cases, protected this knowledge to be passed on through teaching. Today, the people behind Energique are proud to carry on the legacy of its founder, Jack Hinze, ND. A graduate of the Canadian College of Natural Medicine and a passionate advocate of natural healing, Dr. Hinze helped pioneer the practice of naturopathy in the Midwest and began Energique as a natural pharmacy out of his garage, formulating many of our products himself with the knowledge gained through his Naturopathic training.
-Formulated by Naturopathic Doctors: there are numerous brands offering natural remedies directly to practitioners, but what’s behind some of these brands? Where do the formulas themselves actually come from? It might be surprising to learn that not every practitioner brand is necessarily formulated by a healthcare practitioner. Formulas can be sourced from a variety of places, sometimes by entrepreneurs with little understanding of the healing modalities involved. Energique’s products are different – our core lines were formulated by a trained Naturopathic Doctor, and currently under the purview of our two staff NDs, Drs. Laurell Matthews and Ian Spohn. Through their combined expertise, our product lines continue to be maintained, improved, and expanded. Our new products like Adrenavate, Spinapar, and Enervite C Defense were formulated by these two experts specifically for holistic practitioners.
-Employee-Owned Company: we believe that a company’s products reflect that company’s culture, and that this connection is doubly important when those products are natural remedies. Many traditional healers acknowledge that intention plays a huge role when preparing natural remedies, especially when they are made to heal the body on an energetic level. The fact that Energique belongs to a 100% employee-owned family of brands means that everyone involved in the conception, sourcing, compounding, and even packing and shipping of our herbal and homeopathic products does so knowing their efforts are benefiting a company they own, not corporate shareholders. This is incredibly important considering our homeopathic remedies are all hand-succussed by our staff and all of our spagyric herbals are tinctured in-house. When you purchase from Energique, you’re buying remedies made with intention as well as directly benefiting local communities who care about natural wellness.
What We Offer:
-Excellent Customer Service: if you’ve ever called in to place an order, then you’ve probably met at least one of our knowledgeable Customer Service Representatives. Our team receives extensive training in the use of our products to assist you in ordering, and work directly with our in-house Naturopath Dr. Ian Spohn to provide assistance and answer your product questions in real time. Our passionate team of professionals have become so well-versed in natural healing that our staff ND is often shocked when they recommend the same products as he would! Receiving great customer service from knowledgeable staff should be an expectation, not a luxury, and it’s something we’re proud to deliver to our practitioner customers. For those who login through our website, these additional features are also available through your practitioner account.
-Ask the doc: our customer service team are experts when it comes to navigating our product line, but if you have specific questions requiring the expertise of a healthcare professional, you also have the option to contact our staff Naturopathic Doctors directly through askthedoc@energiquepro.com. Drs. Laurell Matthews and Ian Spohn are always available to answer your questions or offer advice, generally replying to inquiries within 24 hours Monday through Friday.
-Custom Compounding: because we manufacture all of our homeopathic remedies in-house, Energique has access to one of the largest inventories of homeopathic raw materials in the United States. In fact, some of the medicinal herbs for our mother tinctures are grown right here at our facility in Woodbine, Iowa. Through our Custom Compounding program, you can order hand-succussed single or combination homeopathic remedies tailored specifically to your patient’s condition,
choosing from among our selection of hundreds of remedies in a range of common potencies. If you’re not sure what remedies to consider, consider consulting our experts for advice via askthedoc@energiquepro.com.
-Protocol Guides: Another distinguishing attribute of our Energique brand is our product offerings spanning three of the major natural healing modalities: herbal, nutritional, and homeopathic. Each of these approaches has its own advantages and supports the body in different ways, for which reason the most effective treatments often create synergy through combining all three. For your convenience, our staff NDs have prepared protocol guides that can be downloaded for free from our website, detailing product combinations ideally suited to a number of common clinical concerns. These guides can be used as a starting point to construct your own tailored protocols, or to borrow insight directly from our pair of talented Naturopathic Doctors.
-Therapeutic Guide: edited by our staff NDs, this is possibly the most valuable resource to healthcare practitioners available on our website. Arranged by specific condition, our Therapeutic Guide provides clinical pearls and a list of our most frequently and specifically indicated products from all three modalities. Using the Therapeutic Guide as a tool can help you quickly locate the best products available for any given patient.
-Webinars: our growing library of webinars provides an incredible educational resource free to our practitioner customers, compiling insights from numerous holistic professionals across a wide range of backgrounds and expertise. From heavy metal detoxification to homeopathic allergy relief, you can join our webinars live or browse through our archived recordings to watch or re-watch at your convenience.
What’s New For 2023
-Updates Coming To Our Website: we have been listening to your feedback, and are pleased to announce we are planning some much-needed updates to our website for 2023. Expect a more user-friendly experience with enhanced search options to help you navigate our product line.
-More Focused Webinars: to better accommodate your busy schedule, we plan to feature a series of shorter, more focused educational pieces to deliver more information in less viewing time. These will complement, not replace, our current full-length webinars which provide deeper dives into clinical topics.
-Blog Posts Are Back: if you’ve enjoyed reading our blog posts in the past, you’ll be excited to learn that these monthly forays into trends, research, and alternative health will be back in 2023. Writing on topics ranging from the insightful to the controversial, our staff NDs have recharged their creative energies and are ready to provide more useful content regarding natural treatment strategies.
