31 Dec Dr. Rachel Stricker
Dr. Rachel Stricker is a naturopathic physician, homeopath, herbalist, and yoga teacher devoted to restoring trust in the body’s innate intelligence and the wisdom of earth-based medicine. With over a decade of clinical practice and many years of study in homeopathy, botanical medicine, nutrition, and somatic healing, her work bridges practical medical knowledge with intuitive, relational care.
Dr. Rachel currently practices at the Mederi Center in Ashland, Oregon, a nonprofit clinic and educational center dedicated to optimizing health, promoting longevity, and improving the quality of life of those facing chronic diseases, especially cancer. She has worked extensively with individuals with chronic infections, digestive concerns, hormonal imbalance, and cardiovascular disease. Homeopathy has long been a cornerstone of her practice, particularly as a gentle and precise medicine for acute care, mental emotional health, pediatrics, and restoring balance in chronic disease. Her approach emphasizes careful observation, listening, and empowering people to become confident participants in their own healing.
Alongside her clinical work, Dr. Rachel has spent many years holding circles, teaching classes, and facilitating gatherings rooted in community, embodiment, and ancestral remembering. She has guided workshops and educational spaces at festivals, retreat centers, and community venues, weaving together medicine, movement, food, and ritual. Her background also includes extensive training in yoga, plant-based culinary arts, and ceremonial space-holding.
Dr. Rachel has served as Camp Doctor for Spirit Weavers Gathering, supporting the community through on-site medical care and herbal first aid, and brings deep respect for the lineage of women’s healing traditions and collective learning. Her work is grounded in the belief that medicine is most powerful when it is shared, accessible, and carried home into daily life.
Dr. Rachel Stricker will be offering Homeopathic First Aid & Acute Care: Empowering Women as Healers in the Home.
