Dr. Cheryl Leuthaeuser Dr. Cheryl Leuthaeuser was convinced about the power of integrative medicine when she recovered from her asthma symptoms completely. Prior to her recovery she suffered for five years, used two inhalers daily and intermittent steroids. After her profound success, she was compelled to practice medicine utilizing similar techniques for her patients. She began her medical career in traditional medicine first and transitioned to integrative medicine at OsteoMed II. Aspiring to create a more welcoming atmosphere for her families, she launched Integrative Wellcare in the autumn of 2007.

Dr. Cheryl Leuthaeuser is a graduate of the Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine (OUCOM). She is board certified in both Family Medicine and Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine/Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine. She completed award winning original clinical research during her residency that revealed cranial osteopathy helps those suffering from sinus infections faster than antibiotics alone. Your doctor is also a teacher and she trains medical students as a OUCOM Clinical Associate Professor of Family Medicine. She enjoys spreading the word about her success by doing lectures at Cleveland Clinic affiliate hospitals, Autism conferences and local parent organizations. Her most prized accomplishment is being the mother of two healthy boys that have benefited from the same treatments she offers her patients.

Dr. Cheryl's practice philosophy

An individual’s wellness begins before they even are welcomed into their parent’s arms. Nutritional counseling prior to conception can aid couples in making the best choices for pregnancy diet, exercise and supplements.

The journey continues just after birth. Babies that experience a difficult delivery, including forceps or vacuum aspiration, can suffer from tight neck muscles and disorders in lactation. They can also be fussy and colicky because they have discomfort in the body. These symptoms can be addressed with usually a few treatments of osteopathic manipulation.
Her special passion includes treating newborns with lactation dysfunction using Cranial Osteopathy; the results are heartwarming as infants can effectively nurse within minutes of the session.

Family members of all ages can benefit from utilizing integrative wellness strategies. Acupressure treatments can eliminate very troublesome allergy symptoms without having to follow strict elimination diets. Optimal nutritional status can be achieved using specialized testing and appropriate supplements. Dr. Cheryl will work with each patient as an individual to develop their unique wellness plan.

Grandpa Money Dr Cheryl’s Integrative Wellcare clinic was opened with the help of many patient volunteers.  Lead volunteer, Jim Moneysmith (aka Grandpa Money), has been a self-employed business person for many years.   He has owned several restaurants in Central Ohio including the Old Worthington Inn; owned a Financial Planning company that handled pension accounts in 40+ school systems including the Ohio State University; and has helped many small businesses around the state in both start-up and expansion situations. Most days you visit our clinic you will see him at the front desk as you enter. More often than not, it will be his voice assisting you on the phone when you call for information or patient appointments.   Jim also supervises the “Dr Cheryl House” and is in charge of our very busy HBOT rental units.

Jim’s grandson Buster is a successful patient of Dr Cheryl’s and is one of the primary reasons he volunteers at the clinic.  He also enjoys speaking to parent’s groups around the state on various topics related to autism, vaccines and ways to help affected children.   He is not only a grandpa to 5 of his own, but also serves as a surrogate grandpa to all of the children who visit the clinic.   You never know when you’re going to need an extra grandpa. Grandpa Money is passionate about helping all of our children be as healthy as they can possibly be.

About the Artist Nicolette is passionate about enhancing her client's residential and commercial spaces though environmental designs. She accomplishes this by coupling high-end murals with standard design elements, such as interior design, color theory, lighting, and accessories. She strongly believes people are psychologically impacted by the environment any space offers. To create a desired impact, she believes the space (whether for living or work) must create a participating connection with those in the space.  Nicolette's ability to create this connection with her created environment is esoteric in its design, but widely experienced by the people who have the opportunity to enjoy the space.
