Natural Integrative Medicine Is a Revelation
Do you feel lost or helpless in today’s conventional medical system? For many people, doctors and hospitals have become a source of stress, fear, and frustration. Natural Medicine, on the other hand, provides holistic, integrative healing for your body, mind, and spirit.
ReDefined Hawaii is a naturopathic medical practice offering the highest standard of primary care and treatment for a range of symptoms and diseases. Our doctors go beyond conventional medicine to heal patients, fundamentally improving their health and well-being.
Our medical practice combines the power of nature and the discipline of science in an integrative health care approach that emphasizes whole-body wellness.
All treatments and medicines we prescribe are based on science and evidence-based research
You’ll meet our doctors who diagnose, treat, and manage both acute and chronic conditions. But unlike conventional MDs who focus only on the body, we broaden our approach to connect body, mind, and spirit.
While other doctors and insurance companies speed up appointments, we slow them down to a human and caring pace. As naturopathic medical practitioners, we have a comprehensive intake process that allows us to get to the root cause of the issue, which allows us to get to a place of healing and wellness. If you are ill or suffering from chronic symptoms, we will lead you to answers and long-term, life-improving solutions made possible only by our Hawaii natural medicine experts.

The Difference Between Naturopathic & Conventional Doctors
Conventional Doctors
• Emergency Care
• Symptom Management
In the Western World, conventional (allopathic) medicine excels at emergency care and symptom management. Medical Doctors (MDs) respond to crisis situations with less attention to long-term wellness. As a result, there has been some attempt at education and prevention in recent years, but it is generally overwhelmed by other priorities.
Naturopathic Doctors
• Holistic Treatments
• Managing Complexity
of Human Body
• Finding Root Cause
Naturopathy or Naturopathic Doctors (NDs) take the opposite approach. They are wellness and nutrition-based with holistic treatments for the mind and spirit along with the physical body. They focus on managing the complexity of the human being not just treating symptoms or lab results. Moreover, finding the root cause and treating the underlying issues are a priority.
A Message From Venesh Sharma
“I am a professionally trained Naturopathic Doctor who comes from a line of gifted healers. I underwent a career change following my own health scare. For years I suffered from digestive issues until discovering Naturopathic Medicine and some wonderful practitioners who helped me heal and thrive. As part of my practice and philosophy, I strive to educate and heal my patients, empowering them to live better and healthier lives.
I believe that health begins with the connection of oneself to trust in the body’s innate ability to heal. By committing our higher selves, we are empowered to embark on a fascinating journey into well-being. I’m a passionate healer with an alternative approach dedicated to helping my patients move through a wide range of physical, emotional, and spiritual transitions in the most efficient and transformative way possible.
My treatments are specifically tailored to the needs of each patient to make sure they receive the approach that works best for them. Time and again, I have seen the incredible healing power of my treatments. My approach is a combination of both Eastern and Western methods. If you need a positive, energetic, and caring Naturopathic Practitioner, please don’t hesitate to reach out and discover how I can help you restore and revitalize yourself.”
