	My Approach

You Are Not a Broken Machine
Conventional medicine excels at diagnosing disease and managing symptoms. What it rarely asks is the deeper question: why is this happening, and what does the body need to restore itself?

My approach starts there.

The human body is not a collection of parts that wear out and need replacing. It is a highly ordered, self-regulating energy system — one that is continuously reading signals from its environment, converting those signals into biology (orchestrated information flow), and repairing and regenerating itself when given the right conditions. Most chronic illness, including cancer, metabolic disease, and neurodegeneration, is not a failure of the body. It is a failure of the conditions the body needs to function.

My work is to identify what those conditions are for you — and to help you restore them.


The Energetics of Health Framework

Every cell in your body is responding to five environmental signals at all times:

Light · Water · Magnetism · Temperature · Time

These signals are received and converted into biology (orchestrated information flow) by four molecular systems we call the four receivers: melatonin, melanin, membranes, and mitochondria. Between the environment and these receivers sits a layer of ionic minerals — sodium, potassium, magnesium, iron, copper, zinc, iodine, calcium, molybdenum, manganese, selenium, boron and more — that conduct, translate, and amplify every signal before it reaches your cells.

When any part of this system is disrupted — by artificial light, contaminated water, electromagnetic pollution, nutritional depletion, high deuterium, chronic stress, or circadian misalignment — the entire architecture is affected. Not just one organ. Not just one hormone. The whole system.

This is why people with complex, chronic conditions often find that single-target treatments produce only partial and temporary results. They are treating downstream effects while the upstream signal environment remains broken.


What a Consultation Looks Like

Every person I work with is different. Your diagnosis, history, goals, environment, and biology are yours alone — and your plan reflects that.

A consultation begins with a thorough review of your medical history, current symptoms, labs, imaging, and any prior treatments. I look not just at what the numbers say, but at the patterns — what the body is trying to tell us about where the system is under stress.

From there, we build a plan organized around the framework above. This typically includes:

Environmental calibration — how you manage light, water, EMF exposure, and temperature in daily life
Circadian alignment — bringing your daily rhythm back into sync with biological time
Nutritional strategy — food quality, timing, and metabolic flexibility; always local, seasonal, and low in the environmental contaminants that interfere with cellular chemistry
Targeted therapeutic support — a minimal, purposeful selection of agents (such as astaxanthin, lactoferrin, iodine, ionic minerals, marine plasma, and deuterium-depleted water) chosen for their specific biophysical roles, not as broad-spectrum supplementation
Metabolic reset protocols — fasting, fasting-mimicking diet, cold and heat therapy, grounding, and photobiomodulation used as active physiological tools

Consciousness and resilience — the internal landscape matters as much as the physical environment; stress physiology, autonomic nervous system coherence, and the evidence base for spontaneous healing are integrated into every plan.


Who I Work With

I work with individuals navigating complex, serious health challenges — particularly those who feel they have exhausted conventional options, are looking for a more complete picture alongside their medical care, or want to take an active role in their own recovery.

My clinical focus includes:


Cancer (integrative oncology support, pre- and post-treatment optimization)
Metabolic dysfunction (insulin resistance, obesity, fatty liver, type 2 diabetes)
Neurological and neurodegenerative conditions
Chronic inflammatory and autoimmune disease
Hormonal dysregulation and thyroid conditions
Complex cases where no single diagnosis fully explains the picture

I work alongside your existing medical team — not in place of it.


The Philosophy Behind the Practice

Modern medicine inherited a model of the human body from 19th-century physics: a machine made of parts, governed by chemistry, understood by taking things apart. That model has produced remarkable tools. It has also produced a blind spot — it struggles with complexity, with emergence, with the body as a field rather than a mechanism.

The science has moved. Quantum biology, biophysics, and the study of coherent systems have given us a far richer understanding of how living organisms actually function. Light does not just cause sunburn — it governs metabolic rate, hormonal signaling, and gene expression. Water is not just a solvent — it is a structural and energetic medium whose quality determines the quality of every cellular process. Minerals are not just nutrients — they are ionic conductors that translate electromagnetic signals into biological action.

This is not alternative medicine. It is a more complete physics applied to biology — one that takes the body seriously as the sophisticated, self-regulating system it is.

My aim is to bring that understanding to you in a way that is practical, personalized, and grounded in the best available evidence — and to walk alongside you as you rebuild the conditions your body needs to do what it already knows how to do.

Dr. Petra Davelaar is an integrative health practitioner specializing in oncology, metabolic health, and advanced diagnostic interpretation. She consults internationally with individuals and works alongside conventional medical teams to develop comprehensive, individualized health strategies.

SCHEDULING
I’m currently consulting with my clients via online video calls, please submit new appointment requests here.

	
CANCELLATION POLICYMy cancellation policy requires 48 business-hours notice for any cancellation or to reschedule your appointment. A cancellation fee will be charged if this is not met as this prevents another client from being scheduled. If an emergency arises within 24 hours please contact me as soon as possible. 

	
COMMUNICATIONSEmail is the most effective way to communicate with me. Please understand though that email communication is best reserved for simple yes or no questions, I always welcome those. However, if you would like to discuss changes to your recommendations, new health concerns, discuss imaging types and frequency, ask my opinion about information you read online or have more involved questions, I ask that you schedule a follow up consult.  

	
PAYMENTPayment is due at the time of service, I accept Zelle, Venmo, credit cards, and bitcoin.

Regarding insurance, unfortunately health insurance companies do not honor naturopathic doctors. However, clients with health savings plans or HSA plans successfully process their payments with those. 

As a courtesy, I provide clients with a superbill which may be filed with your insurance company by you for potential reimbursement or kept for tax deductions.

	
LABS AND IMAGINGYour labs and imaging may be eligible for reimbursement from your insurance, however you’ll need to work directly with your insurance provider to ensure coverage. As every healthcare company and plan is different, I cannot take responsibility for tests ordered that fall outside of coverage. I will always try and obtain the most cost effective tests for you.

	
PRIMARY CAREI am not a primary care physician and require that every client maintains care with a local, primary care doctor while seeking my advice for specialty/adjunctive care purposes. 

	
TESTINOMINALS"And thank you for all of this great info. I've been waiting my whole life to meet you!"

"I feel good about this plan and I am so thankful for the amazing opportunity to work with you, and the team effort we have!"

"Thank you again for our session! I really appreciate the time and thoroughness you put into it before, during, and after. I am optimistic that profound health is ahead!"

"You were so thorough, easy to talk to, and terrific all around. A compliment to you from a very picky clinician myself!" 

"I’m so grateful to have met you and worked with you. You are truly amazing and gifted at what you do and I know that you have made a powerful difference in many people’s lives." 

"I just have to let you know that I feel so good these days that it can only be described as a transformation. I am very grateful to you and am really excited about being healthy."

It is my honor and great pleasure to introduce you to the
world of nanobubbles!
For the last year it has been my privilege to learn from a team of
extraordinary scientists who have educated me about the omissions in the biological
and medical sciences, including physical chemistry, colloid and surface
chemistry, and biochemistry.


The following summary is an attempt to introduce these
concepts that remain largely unknown and is based on the seminal paper entitled
“The endothelial surface layer-glycocalyx - Universal nano-infrastructure is
fundamental to physiology, cell traffic and a complementary neural network” by Barry
W. Ninham, Nikolai Bunkin, and Matthew Battye


This paper is the fourth in a series that attempts to apply
well understood, yet ignored concepts, including self-assembly driven by
molecular forces, to open up insights into central areas of physiology that have
been a mystery.


The titles of those papers capture some of what their latest essay is
about [See bottom of page for citations]


Structure and function of the 
endothelial surface layer [1]


Pulmonary surfactant and COVID-19: 
A new synthesis [2]


Nafion: New and Old Insights 
into Structure and Function [3]


The two major omissions:

1. The effects of dissolved air

2. The unknown structure and function of the endothelial
surface layer-glycocalyx complex that lines all cell membranes and tissues.
It is massive in extent compared with the relatively tiny phospholipid membrane
of cells which it partners. It is a complex, dynamic, organized nanostructured
medium that both protects the cell and directs cell traffic.


&#60;img width="1382" height="880" width_o="1382" height_o="880" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/feaec24f8322063f078cbffaba91f200933bfa9a7f72e65d0d3fc12e74ebf1f4/Screenshot-2025-02-06-at-11.02.50AM.png" data-mid="226123356" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/feaec24f8322063f078cbffaba91f200933bfa9a7f72e65d0d3fc12e74ebf1f4/Screenshot-2025-02-06-at-11.02.50AM.png" /&#62;
While the authors acknowledge that these
investigations are speculative, they believe they offer support to the
potential of this new approach in developing new understanding of many
phenomena that have until now remained elusive. They accept also that
extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. As such they have done their
best to provide multiple examples of how this proposed new paradigm might be
useful in closing these gaps.


KEY CONCEPTS


1. Dissolved atmospheric gas is missing from theories of
physical chemistry. It plays a central role. It is delivered from the lungs as nanobubbles.&#38;nbsp;
These nanobubbles of oxygen and nitrogen circulate and are stable where bubble coalescence
inhibition conditions exist, as they do in physiology, i.e. (137-142 mM NaCl)


Macro bubble coalescence is prevented by different solutes, including some but not all salts,
amino acids and sugars. The phenomenon is not explained by classical (macroscopic ) theory.
Hydrophobic interactions do not exist in gas free conditions. Depletion forces due to
nanobubbles explain coalescence inhibitionCoalescence inhibition occurs above critical concentrations levels which vary for different
solutes. There is a solute specific critical nanobubble concentration (CNC) for nanobubbles in
different solutes. (Salt, glucose, amino acids)Nanobubbles nucleate through spontaneous cavitation&#38;nbsp;(e.g., when an enzyme and a substrate
come together).Cavitation produces highly reactive species and free radicals as a result of a co-operative
harnessing of weak short range van der Waals molecular forces. This process provides the
energy to drive enzymatic reactions


2. The Glycocalyx (GC) is a dynamic self-assembled
nanostructure (a porous smart medium involving bicontinuous channels) which
performs or supports many of the functions presently attributed to the cell membrane and various “binding sites”,
ion pumps and “receptors”.


&#60;img width="1126" height="682" width_o="1126" height_o="682" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/29fde2e966b3e00098569b9581f8ebe3c7f5400f13f44df599967fda0fbc99d1/Screenshot-2025-02-06-at-11.02.33AM.png" data-mid="226256031" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/29fde2e966b3e00098569b9581f8ebe3c7f5400f13f44df599967fda0fbc99d1/Screenshot-2025-02-06-at-11.02.33AM.png" /&#62;

The GC acts as chemical reactor, cell transport mediator,
and even an extended neural network through its modulation of the rate of
transport of specific ions. A hormone like insulin can change the size and
connectivity of the bicontinuous channels of the porous GC medium (change in curvature
induced by surface adsorption). The GC responds similarly to any changes in
local environmental conditions – from salt ion levels, dissolved gas types and
concentrations, to deuterium levels to the presence of drugs and/or hormones.
These physical changes in structure alter function of the ESL-GC complex.


3. The Endothelial Surface Layer (ESL), an extension of the
GC structure, acts as an exclusion zone to help protect the GC and cell
membrane from everything from systolic sheer forces to viruses and bacteria, to
red blood cells.

What is known is that endothelial surface layer (ESL) is very large in extent, stretching out from cell surfaces 0.5 –1.0 microns. It contains a very small amount of organic matter, but nonetheless it forms an exclusion zone. The exclusion zone repels red cells, T-cells, cancer cells, bacteria, and lipoprotein complexes. The glycocalyx is 20 times less in extent than the ESL. It is about 50 nm for T cells, 20nm for red cells. It is formed predominately by several sialic acid polymers that are heavily sulfated hydrocarbons: principally heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate. It also includes a 10% fraction of another polymer called sodium hyaluronate. This layer is analogous to the perfluorinated polymer membrane Nafion. It too has an exclusion zone, although orders of magnitude smaller, the ESL exclusion zone is 1 micron. The structure of the ESL and its central role in protection against many diseases have been quantified
by extensive pioneering work over the years by Vink’s School in the Netherlands.The GC we will define as the interconnected matrix of nano-structured
channels that run essentially along the cell membrane, whilst the we refer to the ESL as the balance of
the extracellular matrix, i.e. remaining territory from these (relatively) horizontal channels, out through
the regions containing the reed-like structure teased out from the GC, the gel-like foam and the entire
exclusion zone out to the blood plasma region, as in
the first figure above.


4. Scale. Not only the scale of the structures we are
discussing, but also the scale if you will of the forces between the ions that
based on their concentrations can have significantly different effects on the
curvature of GC components, resulting in fundamentally different ramifications
for biological function.


Let’s compare sizes of what we are talking about and provide
some context: (nm=nanometer)


The cell lipid membrane is 3 nm thick. 3x 10-9 (billionths)
of a meter. 


Nanobubbles of O2/N2/ CO2 approx. 2-30 nm


Thickness of glycocalyx helical tubes say&#38;nbsp;10-20 nm


Thickness of glycocalyx 50 nm for a T cell; 20 nm Red
blood cell


Thickness of ESL 1,000 nm


Thickness of red blood cell 8,000 nm


Thickness of gram-positive bacterial wall 80 nm


Size of bacteria1000 - 10,000 nm


[Distance of earth to sun 150 x 10+9 meters]


[Distance of moon to earth 0.4 x 10+9]


[Diameter of earth 13 x 10+6 meters]

So, the relative size of the lipid membrane to the
thickness of the ESL (containing nanobubbles) is about 3 to 1000, about 300.


The relative size of the distance from earth of moon to
that of the sun is 0.4 to 150, about 300 again.


All the pictures you see in the biomedical biochemistry
books ignore size and give rise to absurd mis conceptualization.


So compared to the ESL-GC dimensions the cell lipid membrane is puny. It would be astonishing then
if the “fuzzy layer” did not have a determining and dominating role in all things cellular. Unawareness
of even the existence of the ESL-Glycocalyx complex has forced biologists /biochemists /biophysicists
to adopt absurd, misleading models of the cell membrane that assign to it tasks impossible physically.


5. Forces. As mentioned, at critical physiological salt range (137-142 mM Na Cl) nanobubbles become stable, whilst at
and above that same ionic strength, electrostatic forces between ions which provide the foundations of
the theory that inform our intuition become unimportant. (pH, buffers, interfacial, tension activities,
osmotic pressure). They are dominated rather by quantum mechanical dispersion forces that are highly
specific(Hofmeister effects).
&#38;nbsp;
DISSOLVED AIR AND GASES
Theories of the physical chemistry of solutions and colloid science do not include effects of dissolved air, oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide. Nor do the medical text books and most research.
Degassing induces major qualitative changes. Some expamles of these are:
Emulsions become stable.

“Hydrophobic” interactions disappear.

Polymerization, enzyme-substrate and other reactions cease.

Measurements of pH, pKas, activities, buffers, and molecular forces all change.

Cavitation stops.


The way we utilize oxygen and how it enters red blood cells is not what we have been taught.&#38;nbsp;Rather than the conventional assumption that oxygen “diffuses” through an amorphous undefined lung
surfactant region to “bind” to hemoglobin, O2/N2 nanobubbles are taken up together.
In fact, inhaled air is compartmentalized and delivered to capillaries as nanobubbles of oxygen and nitrogen (20/80)%. In the lungs, nanobubble dimensions are typically of the order of 40 nm. They would not exist on inhalation without the self-organised templates provide by the lung surfactant. In circulation&#38;nbsp;in capillaries, they are smaller.


Carbon dioxide is produced by metabolism. Molecular CO2 escapes through the cell membrane and forms nanobubbles by passage through the molecular frit that is the glycocalyx lining all cells and tissues.
 &#60;img width="676" height="450" width_o="676" height_o="450" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f2b615befa5f4d084b4cc58fc450ddea1c3e38d2616adfa9388d361099c397e9/Screenshot-2025-02-06-at-11.03.33AM.png" data-mid="226123358" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/676/i/f2b615befa5f4d084b4cc58fc450ddea1c3e38d2616adfa9388d361099c397e9/Screenshot-2025-02-06-at-11.03.33AM.png" /&#62;
A constantly replenished foam of CO2 nanobubbles is the main constituent of the endothelial surface layer. It extends up to a micron from the glycocalyx surface and forms a protective exclusion zone, protecting cells and tissues from red blood cells, T-cells, cancer cells, lipoproteins and pathogens, as well as the sheer forces resulting from rapid acceleration of such under systolic pressure. The CO2 nanobubbles are lethal to viruses and other pathogens. So are exhaust gases containing nitric oxide. NO is also produced from inhaled N2/O2 nanobubbles, an additional source to be recognized.


NANOBUBBLES
The nanobubbles are stable at physiological salt concentration, and circulate in the body as sources of O2 and NO. Further, stable CO2 nanobubbles formed by metabolism form the ubiquitous endothelial surface layer – the ESL.


Stability of the layer of nanobubbles is essential and determined by ion-pair concentrations, among other factors. Bubbles will not coalesce or fuse above a certain salt concentration, this happens to be the same concentration as our blood. This is specific to certain ion pairs. When bubbles fuse, they become larger forming macrobubbles and can cause embolism. Loss of coverage and integrity of this nanobubble layer causes a collapse of the ESL which will result in loss
of defense against pathogens including cancer cells and T-cells. It will result in deposition of LDL plague deposition.

It has not been recognized that nanobubbles are generalists and universal multitaskers in energy
transfer.&#38;nbsp;
NANOBUBBLES DRIVE ENZYME REACTIONS

The O2/N2 nanobubbles access the cell interior from the blood stream through the ESL and GC [1].
These circulating nanobubbles are a major source of nitric oxide involved in driving many biochemical
reactions like the tyrosine- noradrenaline- adrenaline story, the arginine paradox [1] and the
mechanism of action of nitroglycerin, and, with CO2 nanobubbles the destruction of
pathogens [2].

These concepts: nanobubbles existence, stability, dependence on solute, as energy sources, role of
nitrogen, connection to enzymes are missing from the classical pantheon wherein an enzyme is
activated by appending to a molecular name the post fix -ase. There is good reason for this. The entire
venerable 200-year-old enabling disciplines of physical and colloid and surface chemistry omit
dissolved atmospheric gas. This omission renders the theory and the intuition drawn from it at best
misleading, and at worst useless. Once that is understood matters take on a different complexion and
fall better into place.
MOST IMPORTANT TAKE AWAYS

Maintaing integrity of the nanobubble layer and thus the endothelial surface layer glycocalix complex is key for our health.&#38;nbsp;
1. Exercise - Research consistently shows increasing exercise reduces not only the severity of many diseases, but
particularly diseases of affluence, none more so than diabetes. VO2 max – the measure of a
body’s ability to metabolise O2, is shown to be the key predictor of longevity&#38;nbsp; Regular exercise
has been calculated as reducing all-cause mortality risk by as much as 5-10x, a remarkable
improvement, unmatched by any other intervention, whether behavioural/dietary, or
medicinal/pharmaceutical. By contrast, it is even more positively effective than the leading
cause of reduction (i.e. smoking) is negative. How can such a broad range of activities provide such a
universal effect? When considered in the context of the effect of the ESL-GC complex, the answer
becomes clearer.
Increased intake of O2 necessarily increases intake of N2, (air being 4:1 N2/O2), providing ample
opportunity for increased NO production to support enzymatic reactions. Increased metabolism
producing a steady flow of CO2 throughout the body, especially via large primary muscles, but also
the myriad of smaller skeletal and supporting muscles as well.&#38;nbsp;

	ENERGETICS OF CANCERThe Energetics of Cancer:
A Photo-Bioelectromagnetic Paradigm Shift in Oncology
by Petra Davelaar, N.D. &#38;amp; Logan Duvall
Sowing Prosperity Institute

ABSTRACT

Cancer has traditionally been framed as either a genetic disorder or a metabolic disease, yet neither model accounts for its complexity nor includes the role of energetics. We define energetics in this context as the photo-bioelectromagnetic array of quantum dynamic physical forces and frequencies that actually determine the state of our bodies. It includes fundamental principles such as how we process and transform energy and the universal nano-infrastructure glycocalyx and its associated endothelial surface layer which lines all cell membranes and most tissues.

We propose a new paradigm: cancer arises from a lack of sunlight––especially UV and infrared light–– and failure of electromagnetic coherence, charge separation, and redox potential. In addition, reduced metabolic water synthesis and therefore a loss of net-negative charge of the cell, altered integrity of coherent water domains, and lack of cellular immune function, forcing cells into a primitive, dedifferentiated survival state, triggering proliferation and cancer formation.

This paradigm integrates the role of light, both that which we receive and that which we synthesize (UPE), non-visual opsins, melanin biophysics, the electromagnetic interface of cells and tissues, mitochondrial functions and dysfunction, spin signals of elements, synthesis of metabolic water that forms coherent domains when hit by light and gas, semiconducting properties of proteins, and the endothelial surface layer glycocalyx complex integrity, nanobubbles, circadian biology (time-stamping) and geomagnetism to create a unified framework for cancer initiation, and progression. 

Humans are electrical Beings, we emit light and magnetic fields. We are largely made of water, some carbon and small amounts of minerals. We are regulated and fueled by sunlight and maintained by dissolved gas and nanobubbles. If we acknowledge this reality of our structure and function, then we can guide therapeutic interventions accordingly.

Receiving sunlight, while avoiding toxic light and non-native electromagnetic frequencies, thereby structuring water in the form of coherent domains, in addition to restoring cellular charge by grounding and optimizing metabolic water production, and balancing redox potential minimizing oxidative or reductive stress may redefine cancer treatment strategies.
