Description:
The idea behind Kinetic Integrative Ecologics began out of a series of interactions with patients in an outpatient setting who depicted stories of utter dissatisfaction with the current medical system. Kinetic wholly believes that nothing can replace the intrinsic value of an individual’s relationship with their healthcare provider. However, as noted in the American Journal of Complementary & Alternative Medicine, more physicians (both allopathic and osteopathic) are beginning to see the benefits associated with integrated approaches to care.
To further what the Company believes is a public health need, Kinetic was founded on the premise that consumers should have access (and the choice) to utilize a wide range of therapeutic modalities towards furthering their own health. To that end, Kinetics role in this larger endeavor is to provide access to the highest quality nutraceuticals and vitamin products available in the United States marketplace. In what is increasingly being called “consumer-driven healthcare”, Kinetic believes in representing only products that have demonstrated their relative safety, purity/potency claims consistent with the products labeling (through FDA-approved independent batch assays and cGMP certification), and empirical research supporting any product claims. As such, these products are sold only to healthcare providers and are not commercially available to consumers - thereby affording Kinetic the exclusivity of decreased competition within the marketplace (and a high growth ROI potential; currently at 21% ROI).
