Dr. Roxie Strand, NMD
Dr. Strand, NMD
Naturopathic Medical Doctor
About Dr. Strand
Dr. Strand was born and raised in Mitchell, South Dakota.  After graduating from high school, she moved to Arizona to attend Arizona State University where she earned a B.S. degree in Microbiology.  Shortly after graduating from ASU, she joined the Peace Corps and taught Math/Science in Cameroon, West Africa.  Upon returning from the Peace Corps, she worked with the homeless in central Phoenix for two years before attending naturopathic medical school.
Dr. Strand graduated from Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine (www.scnm.edu) in 2002, where she graduated at the top of her class and received the Daphne Blayden Outstanding Student Award for her “commitment to naturopathic medicine, academic excellence, compassion, perseverance, loving sense of humor and positive, supportive outlook”.

Dr. Strand loves to educate & inspire people about their health & wellness…both inside & outside of the US.  She believes that her main goal as a physician is to be a teacher, which is what the word doctor (docere) actually means.  She is fully committed to teaching people what they need to know to create health and vitality…and empowering them with the knowledge they need to THRIVE!

In her free time, Dr. Strand loves to be outdoors, play in nature, hike, bike, garden (which she is not very good at), play golf (which she is REALLY not very good at), and travel.  In the past few years, Dr. Strand has traveled to Ghana, West Africa, and Mozambique, East Africa to offer humanitarian outreach to the people of those countries (see Humanitarian Outreach page for more details).  

Dr. Strand is a member of the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians (www.naturopathic.org) and the AZ Naturopathic Medical Association (www.aznma.org)

Melissa Monaco
Melissa Monaco, NMA
Naturopathic Medical Assistant
About Melissa
Melissa Blankenship, NMA

Melissa is our very talented Naturopathic Medical Assistant. Melissa successfully completed her medical assistant training from Lamson College (Arizona) in 2008. She started working with Dr. Strand in that same year and has become a very valuable addition to the practice.


Even though she was trained in the allopathic medical arena, she quickly embraced and continues to learn our naturopathic philosophies and practices. She loves to see the ever-evolving progress of our patients and our office.

Melissa is one of the most compassionate people you will ever meet, and she goes above and beyond her duties as a medical assistant. She has even been known to personally climb a fence to drop off an herbal tincture to a patient who was unable to come to the office to pick it up. She has a wonderful sense of humor, which you will quickly realize once you get to know her. She values every one of our patients and feels like they have become a second family to her over the years.

In her free time, Melissa enjoys traveling and spending time with her husband and friends. She also loves to hike and experience all of the beauty our state has to offer…especially taking time to cool off in Flagstaff over our hot summers!
​

Melissa is talented on so many levels and can accomplish anything she puts her mind to. She has been one of Dr. Strand’s most valuable treasures, and she is excited to continue her journey and ongoing learning experience with our office.

About Lauren
Lauren completed her Medical Assistant training from Carrington College (Arizona) in 2014. She started working with Creative Healing Solutions in March of 2020, after starting out in the medical field working for an internal medicine doctor in Tempe.

Lauren is excited to learn about naturopathic philosophies and practices. She loves to learn and strives to take in as much information as possible so she can get familiarized with the naturopathic world. She is also very much looking forward to getting to know all of our patients and building lasting relationships within the practice.


​In her free time, Lauren enjoys spending time with her family, cat and friends. She also enjoys traveling and finding new and old treasures at thrift stores.

Other Providers

We at Creative Healing Solutions are blessed and grateful to work in the same office with so many other amazing doctors, healers, and providers. The providers in our office each offer a variety of services, specialties and modalities.  We all have our own practices and we each have a passion for serving our patients and supporting their healing in any way we can. 

I strongly believe, that as a patient, you must feel comfortable and confident with your doctor/provider in order to achieve the best results.  If our approach is not the right fit for you, we would be happy to facilitate a referral to one of the other practitioners in the office, or anyone else we think may be a better fit for you.
Dr. Jac Daccardi
Dr. Jac Daccardi
Chiropractic Physician
About Jac
While some patients refer to me as Dr. Daccardi, many call me “Dr. Jac,” and sometimes “Jac” as I believe that it is our collaborative effort, rather than being separated by formalities, that will accomplish the sometimes Herculean task of repairing one’s health. As a second-generation doctor, I am dedicated to a patient- or client-centered approach to healing, understanding fully that one size truly does not fit all.

I possess an intuitive gift for understanding complex health challenges, and to those who seek my care, I can in a common sense way bring clarity to the nature of the problem. My unique investigative and inventive approach is part healer, part teacher, part artist, part investigator and part mad scientist. My practice is a fusion of the disciplines of chiropractic, functional medicine, functional neurology, structural biomechanics, the energetic principles of acupuncture and the role of emotions in health.
​
By taking these things into consideration, the whole person can then come back into balance and experience vibrant health.
