Have you ever been to a primary care doctor and wondered why they focus on treating symptoms instead of addressing the root cause of your illness? Rather than take a patient-centered approach to address questions like, “Why are you ill?” they prescribe medications that alleviate symptoms but don’t do much to solve the underlying issue that’s causing you to be sick.
When you have a runny nose, you’re handed an antihistamine. When you have high cholesterol or high blood pressure, you’re prescribed a pill that treats the number. The truth is that this approach only tackles your symptoms. When the root cause isn’t fixed, your symptoms can get exponentially worse. Remember - your body’s dysfunction isn’t due to your meds not working.
This begs the question: Wouldn't you rather address the underlying cause of your health concerns so you can experience long-term relief? As a naturopathic doctor in Bonsall, CA, Dr. Erica Oberg takes a functional approach to medicine and well-being instead of treating the symptoms her patients endure.

Now that you know more about what makes Dr. Oberg different from other physicians, let's dig a little deeper into some of the most popular programs and clinical services offered at her functional medicine clinic.
As people get older, many things change in life. Often, those changes are good, like having more self-control, financial freedom, and patience. Others are hard to deal with, especially when they're out of our control. Like all things in life, our hormones change when we get older. These fluctuations can cause problems for both men and women, including:
If those symptoms sound familiar, you're not alone. A 2019 American Psychological Association survey found that almost half of women aged 30 to 60 in the US have experienced symptoms of a hormonal imbalance. Of course, as men age, they suffer from imbalanced hormones, too. Research from BodyLogicMD states that nearly 38% of males in America aged 45 and older have a testosterone deficiency.
The good news is that balancing your hormones and addressing the root cause of your symptoms doesn’t have to be hard. It’s a realistic goal with Dr. Oberg by your side. As a functional medicine doctor in Bonsall, CA, she can help your body metabolize and detoxify both your own hormones and the endocrine-disrupting chemicals infiltrating your life. When your hormones are in harmony, you experience improved energy, mood, and overall health – and that’s something to be excited about.
Our comprehensive Three-Month Hormone Balancing Program is designed to empower you with the knowledge and tools to take control of your hormonal health. This is no "one-and-done service" - it's a holistic journey that spans three transformative months, offering the support and guidance to become confident, capable, and healthier than ever. Features of our hormone balancing program include:
You will receive support throughout your journey from Dr. Oberg, who will provide healthcare services, and our health coaches, who offers personalized coaching tailored to your specific needs.
Nutrition has a significant impact on hormonal health. A customized hormone-balancing diet plan will be provided to help nourish the body optimally based on individual goals.
We provide a range of practical strategies and tips for regulating hormone balance through your nervous system. These techniques aim to empower you to take control of your well-being.
When appropriate, we’ll prescribe you hormone replacement therapy (HRT), testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), or growth hormone peptide therapy to help balance your hormones.
At our functional medical office, we make it a point to correct the root causes of our patient's problems. We don't treat symptoms - but we do use them to figure out the underlying issues you're facing. If you notice any of the following symptoms, it could be time to consider HRT.
When you mention hormone replacement therapy, most people think the treatment is exclusively for females going through menopause. While that's partially true - HRT can relieve night sweats, hot flashes, and other menopause-related problems - men also deal with imbalanced hormones.
Testosterone plays a crucial role in male sexual health. Low levels can result in decreased sex drive, erectile dysfunction, and other sexual performance issues. Difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection may be a sign of imbalanced hormones or low testosterone levels.
When your sleep patterns change - like when you have trouble falling or staying asleep - it could be a sign of a hormone imbalance. Testosterone is involved in regulating the sleep cycle, and insufficient levels of it can disrupt quality rest.
Imbalances in hormones can affect mental health and mood. If a man shows signs of irritability, mood swings, or depression, it could indicate low testosterone or other hormonal issues. Hormone replacement therapy can help regulate mood by balancing your hormone levels.
Menopause happens when a woman has not had a menstrual cycle for at least 12 consecutive months. It is a result of declining sex hormone levels, causing the ovaries to stop releasing egg cells. During menopause, women face a range of challenges.
Testosterone plays a crucial role in male sexual health. Low levels can result in decreased sex drive, erectile dysfunction, and other sexual performance issues. Difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection may be a sign of imbalanced hormones or low testosterone levels.
Irregular menstrual cycles are a common sign that women are nearing menopause, and their hormone levels may be shifting. The frequency of their periods may increase or decrease, and the amount of bleeding could be more or less than usual, while also lasting for a shorter or longer time.
Hot flashes are perhaps the most well-known symptom of menopause and a frequent sign that a woman's hormones are imbalanced. Hot flashes are sudden feelings of warmth and sweating that are usually most intense on your face, neck, and chest.
Don't let hormone imbalances dictate your life. Take the first step towards reclaiming your balance, energy, and vitality. By working together with Dr. Oberg and her team, you can unlock the path to a healthier, more harmonious you.

Unlike one-size-fits-all IV clinics, our team considers factors like nutrient deficiencies, hydration levels, and overall health to create a customized infusion.

IV therapy is considered one of the best ways to get the nutrients and immune-boosting goodness your body needs because it gives you a more direct, efficient means of delivery. Unlike oral supplement, which often falls short due to digestive limitations, IV therapy ensures swift and comprehensive nutrient absorption. Some of the biggest benefits of IV therapy from a functional medicine doctor in Bonsall, CA include the following:
IV fluids and electrolytes rapidly hydrate your body, providing an efficient remedy for dehydration resulting from illness, physical activity, or excessive alcohol intake.
IV treatment is able to increase energy and fight tiredness, which can make you feel re-energized.
IV infusions containing immune-enhancing vitamins and antioxidants can fortify your immune system and assist in recovering from illness.
IV therapy containing growth factors, exosomes, and vitamins is effective in improving the health and appearance of the skin and hair. These components complement hair and facial microneedling treatments exceptionally well.
IV therapy can help reduce the symptoms of toxic exposure, like headaches, nausea, fatigue, and dehydration, whether it's from a basic hangover or prolonged exposure to molds, heavy metals, or other toxins.
Dr. Oberg’s personalized IV infusions can serve as an initial boost for making lifestyle changes and play a role in a sustained plan to control persistent conditions like diabetes, autoimmune disorders, cancer, heart disease, and others.
Support Mitochondria function and Anti-aging
Dr. Oberg offers carefully sourced and research backed regenerative therapies such as exosome and stem cell infusions. These can be powerful options for people recovering from chronic infections such as long COVID or Epstein Barr or Lyme. They are also powerful for neuro-regeneration and we frequently use them in stroke recovery and for traumatic brain injury.
Dr. Oberg offers personalized IV micronutrient therapy tailored to address specific nutritional deficiencies, hydration needs, and overall health. This therapy is based on advanced testing that evaluates your cells' nutrient levels. Whether you need more energy, a stronger immune system, or relief from different health issues, IV drip therapy can be customized to help you rediscover the very best version of yourself.
As we get older, our bodies experience a range of changes that affect our health and appearance. These changes are primarily caused by issues with mitochondria and cellular aging. However, there have been significant developments in regenerative medicine, offering the potential to turn back the hands of time and improve health. Schedule a consultation today with Dr. Oberg to begin your journey with regenerative medicine.
Regenerative medicine is an exciting, innovative field that centers on activating your body's innate regenerative abilities to repair and revitalize tissues, cells, and organs. Its focus is on improving your body's natural healing processes to counteract the impacts of aging and different health issues. If you find that old, nagging injuries won’t go away or that fine lines and wrinkles have become overwhelming, anti-aging medicine from a functional medicine doctor in Bonsall, CA may be perfect for you.
At our naturopathic medical office, we use treatments like IV therapy, hormone replacement therapy, and Peptide Therapy to manage a broad array of health and aesthetic concerns. These treatments can aid in tissue repair, inflammation reduction, and enhancement of cellular function.
Anti-aging services offered at our functional medicine clinic include the following:
Peptides are fundamental components of proteins and play a crucial role in various biological processes, such as the aging process. Dr. Oberg offers peptide treatments to help counteract age-related decline, enhance muscle growth and performance, improve skin health, and more.
When you bring your hormones back into balance, you can fight back against issues such as fatigue, mood swings, reduced libido, and even erectile dysfunction.
Replenish vital nutrients, antioxidants, and hydration for improved energy levels, skin health, and immune support.
Exosomes are tiny vesicles generated from mesenchymal stem cells. These vesicles serve as powerful communicators, transmitting signals to various tissues in the body. Their main function is to trigger healing, regeneration, and repair processes, mimicking the actions of younger cells. They are considered to be one of the most effective strategies for combating the aging process.
When nutrition guidance, lifestyle adaptations, and powerful supplements are combined with naturopathic medical therapies from Dr. Oberg, you can reverse chronic diseases in your life and reach your anti-aging goals.
Our goal with regenerative medicine treatments is to rejuvenate deteriorating or aging tissue. Our approach to treatment centers on fixing and reversing damage instead of solely addressing symptoms like pain. Regenerative medicine harnesses the power of healthy cells to renew and restore function by enhancing the body's innate capacity for self-healing.

Imagine nearly 50 basketballs rolling past your front door, per second, every second. That’s how many cubic feet of county stormwater flowed through underground pipes directly beneath the Stavinohas’ driveway.

Imagine nearly 50 basketballs rolling past your front door, per second, every second. That’s how many cubic feet of county stormwater flowed through underground pipes directly beneath the Stavinohas’ driveway. The Bonsall family said they had no idea those 30-in diameter underground pipes ran right through their front yard until it was impossible not to see them through gaping holes in their driveway.
“We don’t have enough money to fix this,” said a visibly exasperated Kerry Stavinoha during an interview outside their home last month.
Two sinkholes in less than two years have chewed away at the Stavinohas’ concrete driveway. What once was a flat front yard, now resembles a shallow bowl; a bowl that sinks lower and lower into the earth after every rain.
“It happens all the time,” real estate litigator Steven Blum told NBC 7.
Blum has handled more than a hundred cases across California involving landslides and sinkholes on private property tied to public infrastructure
The soil in San Diego County contains a lot of sand, which can’t withstand water erosion as well as other types of earth, Blum said. That's why he says the soil here is more vulnerable to landslides and sinkholes.
That’s bad news for anyone living near hundreds of similar pipes running under houses and businesses across San Diego County, many of which are beginning to deteriorate from age.

“We’re really frustrated and sad,” Stavinoha said. "We do what we’re supposed to do. We work hard. We pay our taxes.”
Kerry is a nurse and her husband, Aaron, is a U.S. Marine veteran who currently works as an ER physician. Both have been picking up extra shifts, but they said that won’t be enough to pay for the repairs. Last week, the couple met with several banks and is now in the process of taking on a massive amount of debt.
Over the past two years, the Stavinohas said, they’ve spent $100,000 out of pocket toward engineers and specialists to survey the problem and get bids from contractors. They said only one contractor was willing to take on the project at a minimal cost of $650,000. The Stavinohas, who said the bill will cost them their retirement savings, are also using money they had saved to pay for college for their three children. But they said the bulk of the bill will come from a $500,000 home equity loan.
“It’s been a nightmare,” Stavinohas said. “It’s been an absolute nightmare.
Two county storm drains line the uphill road in front of the Stavinoha home. Developer maps obtained by NBC 7 Investigates show those storm drains direct water into a pipe system that runs under the driveway toward their home and then into another pipe which directs all that stormwater down a hill.
When the home was built about 20 years ago, a private developer installed those stormwater pipes. That developer went out of business before the Stavinohas bought and moved into their home.
“We feel like it’s just one family handling this entire community’s water,” said Kerry.
In an email to NBC 7 Investigates, a county spokeswoman confirmed the county is willing to replace the 11 feet of pipe underground between the county storm drain and the Stavinoha front yard. That’s the distance comprising the public right of way.
The first sinkhole appeared in July 2021. Pictures Aaron Stavinoha shared with NBC 7 Investigates show the pipe connected to the county storm drain is so corroded that it no longer appears to have a bottom.
Without a pipe to contain it, nearly 34 cubic feet of water per second pushes out soil, creating pathways below the surface, which washes away more earth every time it rains.
“It’s not even utilizing the pipe,” Kerry Stavinoha explained. “It’s just going straight toward our garage. I mean, massive flow. Like, I don’t think people understand when we had those big rains. It’s like Niagara sound coming through underneath the driveway.”
After more than a year of that, the second pipe, the one designed to redirect water away from their home, gave out. Pictures of that one appear to show a pipe split in half. It’s this pipe that created a 35 foot deep sinkhole near the Stavinoha garage in December 2022.
“We feel that the county really dropped the ball on even trying to see if there was anything to help us,” said Kerry.
In an email, a county spokeswoman argued the government agency is not responsible for the damage, despite the fact the pipes carried county stormwater.
“The connection of a public pipe to a private pipe and draining water from the public pipe to a private pipe is not sufficient to establish county responsibility for the private pipe.
As a public agency, we have to respect private property rights. The idea that if we connect to something, we own it, is incorrect. That concept would limit a property owner’s ability to use that part of their property because county ownership of the infrastructure includes ownership of the land it is on or under.
There could be many different connections to a storm drainage system over miles. Every property owner has an obligation to accept reasonable drainage from their neighbor and pass that drainage on in a reasonable way.
The county is not responsible for infrastructure on private property that it does not own or maintain, even if it connects to sections in the public road right of way.”
“99.9 percent of the time you have to file a lawsuit,” Blum said. “It’s not right. It’s not fair. It’s not what they should be doing ethically. But it’s what they do.”
Blum said in general, the government is responsible for any government structure or infrastructure that causes damage to your private property, even if it isn’t the main cause of the damage.
“There’s an argument to be made that this water is going through a public system,” Blum said. “The Constitution is there to protect you from the government.”
“If anybody is buying a home in San Diego County, I encourage you: research," Kerry said. "Research everything before you buy it, because I think if we had known this, we would not have ever bought this house. If we knew all of the county’s water came under us, we would never have done this.”
It’s not easy figuring out what’s under your home and who’s responsible to fix it. The first thing homeowners should do is look through documents that were part of their home purchase, like title paperwork. That will contain information about property easements that might reveal that there’s a stormwater pipe under your property, who owns it, and who’s responsible for maintaining it.
Homeowners can also go to a county website to search through the survey records system. It can be a complicated process to understand how to search for and understand what documents are found. The county produced a help guide, which you’ll find below. You can also call (858) 694-3253.

Dressed in pink loungewear on the early morning of Dec. 6, 2023, Michelle Mack and her husband Kenneth were handcuffed and escorted into squad cars from their Bonsall mansion.
CNBC’s cameras were at the home as the arrest happened.
The Macks' home is equipped with its own vineyard and chapel that the couple rented out as a wedding venue and an Airbnb. But according to a search warrant, the home also doubled as a stash house, for a small fortune in make-up, stolen from major retail stores across the country like Sephora and Ulta.
“This is a top priority for me, primarily because of the safety and security risk it brings to our team," said Ulta Beauty CEO, Dave Kimbell.
Kimbell talked to CNBC’s Courtney Reagan about the investment his company has made in security shelves, as well as security and trauma training, in addition to the wave of theft hitting retail stores.
“The network she built across the country was impacting multiple stores and so by eliminating that, it's a step. But unfortunately, I know there are others out there that are just like that."
Michelle Mack, 53, and her husband have pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiracy, grand theft and receipt of stolen property.
Michelle is accused of working with as many as 12 women, providing them with a list of items to steal from stores across the country. Places like LensCrafters in Clairemont and Ulta Beauty in Mira Mesa.
According to the search warrant the goods were sometimes mailed to a Bonsall post office and ended up for sale, at discounted prices, on an Amazon storefront called "Online Makeup Store."
“We have people that have stolen 54 times. It has become really rampant,” said District Attorney Summer Stephan.
It’s one of the reasons why Stephan and mayors across San Diego County are looking to reform Prop 47.
The ballot measure made some non-violent property crimes under $950 misdemeanors.
Under a new proposal, called the, "Homelessness, Drug Addiction and Theft Reduction Act," prosecutors would be allowed to combine the dollar amount of stolen goods if someone is a repeat offender.
Some city and county leaders are hoping to get enough signatures to put it on the November ballot.
“It will allow us to add those amounts to address the people who are preying on businesses, differently than what the intention was; those first-time youthful offenders that make a mistake.”
Stephan says with online stores and marketplaces becoming the new place for criminals to sell stolen goods, there have been some positive steps toward cracking down.
The recently passed 'Inform Consumers Act' requires online marketplaces to get information from high-volume sellers to help identify stolen goods.
But Stephan says there are still loopholes that need to be closed in some person-to-person marketplaces like Facebook. As well as making sure Prop 47 is reformed so repeat offenders are properly punished.
“It feels like we've decriminalized theft at the expense of these businesses and employees,” said Stephan. “I look forward to a day where the rights of victims and community are balanced with the rights of the criminals. Right now, it's out of balance.”
Amazon released a statement regarding the issue saying:
“We invest more than $ 1 billion annually and employ thousands of people to fight fraud...we use sophisticated detection and prevention solutions."

The National Weather Service said the flood warning for San Diego County is being allowed to expire at 5:15 p.m. The NWS reports the widespread, heavy rain has ended, with only residual light to moderate rain occurring over the mountains and parts of the desert.
Flooding is no longer expected to pose a significant threat, but people should remain alert for residual standing water in poorly drained locales this evening.
Today's rainfall set more than a half-dozen precipitation records in the San Diego County area, according to the NWS.
The historic tallies include 10.1 inches at Palomar Observatory (topping the prior milestone of 9.58 inches, set in 1991); 4.02 in Ramona (2.15, 1995); 3.75 in Campo (2.12, 1954); 3.01 in Vista (2.58, 1980); 2.94 in Alpine (2.6, 1995); 2.68 in Borrego (1.73, 1980); and 1.28 at Oceanside Harbor (1.03, 1980).
Update: Feb. 14, 4 p.m.
Heavy rainfall and driving winds lashed San Diego County today, prompting widespread flooding, fallen trees, mudslides and other storm-related hazards across the soaked region. One report indicated that Fallbrook had received more than 4.6 inches of rain today alone.
All that water wreaked havoc on Fallbrook, Bonsall, and Rainbow today and forced the closure Vallecitos Elementary School and Fallbrook Union High School District schools - Fallbrook High, Ivy High, and Oasis High - were dismissed at 12 p.m. The district announced that because of the President's Day holidays, students won't return until Tuesday.
Bonsall Unified School District schools remained on normal early dismissal time, as did all Fallbrook Unified Elementary School District schools. Those school districts will be closed on Friday, Feb. 15.
"Due to the intense storm – which has led to power outages, flooding, road closures, and dangerous travel conditions – schools in the following districts will be closed tomorrow, Feb. 15," a statement made by the San Diego County Department of Education read.
There were reports of horses being stranded and in need of evacuation in Bonsall, and travel from Fallbrook to De Luz was halted with road closures due to flooded roadways.
The San Diego County Department of Public works reported that Couser Canyon is closed at Pala Loma and Highway 76 due to flooding.
A video shared with the Village News by resident Chad Lansberry showed the amount of water flowing through the Santa Margarita River causing closed roads throughout the area.
