Dr. Casey grew up in southern Indiana knowing she would be a doctor. At
the tender age of 10 she started to volunteer at the local hospital. Dr.
Casey financed her medical education by working full time at Indiana
University School of Medicine in the biochemistry department and going
to school at night. She received her M.D. from Indiana University.

Soon after her first medical job at a University Student Health Center,
Dr Casey felt that something was wrong with a system where the youth,
supposedly in their prime, not only were getting sick, but after being
treated with conventional medicine they would return again and again
with the same condition. Even when she was trying to help others deal
with their illnesses, she was becoming frustrated and discouraged with
the way conventional medicine addresses health issues, especially when
Dr. Casey herself had been dealing with her own illnesses most of her
life such as peptic ulcer, colitis, asthma, allergies, headaches,
dysfunctional menses, thyroid and auto immune disease.

Desperate for answers, since none of the treatments she had gotten at
any of her hospitals had helped her, she began her search, not as to why
someone gets sick, but how can illness can be prevented in the first
place? Regardless of her former medical training she became very open
minded and decided to study many alternative modalities ranging from
yoga, martial arts, and Eastern philosophies, to nutrition, psychology
and spirituality. Interestingly enough, the more she began to apply the
principles she was learning, the healthier she got. Then Dr. Casey began
to apply what she had learned to her patients, generating immediate
positive results.

Since the fall of 1997, Dr. Casey has been based in Los Angeles,
California. She is no longer practicing traditonal medicine. She is
devoting her time to health coaching, allowing us to educate ourselves
about our bodies and state of health.  One very special part of her
practice involves coaching people on fasts. Rainbow will be sharing her
wisdom here...
