Please join us from 5-8 p.m. on Thursday, October 8 for our "Second Thursday at the Museum" event series at the Santa Ynez Chumash Museum and Cultural Center! Our featured speaker this month is Integrative Medicine Specialist, Clinical Herbalist, and Serrano Natural Health founder Dr. Katya Adachi Serrano.
Dr. Adachi Serrano blends an intimate knowledge of modern medicine with traditional remedies to treat the whole person on their path to wellness. In addition to working for the Santa Barbara Public Health Department and as faculty for the Marian Family Medicine Residency, Dr. Adachi Serrano credits her heritage – Winnebago (Ho-chunk) from the Thunder Clan, Ojibwe from White Earth, and Japanese – for inspiring Serrano Natural Health; the micro practice in Guadalupe, California, where she offers personalized care through herbal medicine and body work.
Among Serrano Natural Health’s most popular offerings are a specialty line of herbal teas and skin salves that provide natural solutions to everyday issues such as sleeplessness, stress, and digestion support.
For this free after-hours event, Dr. Serrano will be discussing her inspiring journey as a “warrior for wellness,” and how it has informed her unique line of products and services. Attendees will also be able to enjoy free museum admission to the Permanent Exhibit, Temporary Exhibit, and Cultural Park. Audio tours can be added to your experience for $10 per person.
Admission is free, and no reservation is required. We hope to see you there!
