A human being is a part of a whole, called by us the 'Universe', a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separate from the rest — a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. — Albert Einstein

Early in her life, Marizelle was curious about the art and craft of medicine. Inspired by her heritage of Peruvian tradition, she pursued an undergraduate degree in Anthropology. With a mix of the two, Anthropology and Medicine, Marizelle concentrated on learning about ancient traditions of food, medicine, shamanism, behavior, herbs, and the sustainability of many world cultures.  She has had 3 years of Cultural/Sociological Anthropology in her undergrad (BA), concentrating on nutrition and medicinal methodologies in a wide variety of cultures around the world. After 4 ½ years of Naturopathic medical studies at The University of Bridgeport, College of Naturopathic Medicine (an accredited Naturopathic Medical School), Dr. Arce concentrated on marrying her knowledge and understanding of ancient cultures and traditions with current biology, physiology and modern medicine.

Naturopathic medicine connected her two passions. It allowed her to continue enhancing her knowledge on all cultures view on health as well as be able to apply the knowledge to everyday people.  She is an expert in food/nutrition science, ancient and current.  Added to all this she is a nationally certified Personal trainer and a internationally certified Applied Kinesiologist.

"My philosophy consists of classic Naturopathy and Anthropology, using food as the primary medicine.  I feel that it is my job to expose people to as much knowledge as I have learned. I also hope for everyone to learn to support companies and farms that help keep the Earth healthy as well as to learn the way of sustainable living."

"I am a guide to a better understanding of your body/mind/spirit, and together we can empower you and allow your body to heal and be connected to the world around you."

TESTIMONIALS

After discovering I had polymyositis, which is a muscular dystrophy, I was desperate for answers. My rheumatologist recommended steroids but had no answers on how I got the disease or how to effectively treat it. Dr. Arce not only recommended natural remedies for the disease but also gave me a cogent explanation on how I got the disease. After just 4 weeks of a changed diet and natural supplements, I have shown dramatic improvement. - Ed, NY

For several years I have had chronic UTI’s. I was on antibiotics at least once a month. The doctors treated and cleared the infection but never resolved the problem. Even when I was treated by an urologist I still had the recurrent infections. Frustrated and unable to permanently get rid of the problem, I searched for alternative medicines. On my first visit my condition was explained and I was told the cause of my problem. With a simple diet, treatment and understanding of my health, I have not been on any antibiotics for the past six months. [Dr. Arce’s] ability to target and remedy the problem is precise. She cleared the medical problems I have had since childhood, which no doctor or anyone else has ever noticed, remedied and cured. She oversees my entire family and I am truly grateful to have found her; for she knows so much and uses her knowledge to help her patients. In addition to my specific problems the most remarkable testimony comes from my mother’s condition. She was given a pacemaker and was on several medications. Her health deteriorated and she became too ill to travel. When she became stronger I brought her to Dr. Arce for a consultation. She was put under her care, my mother’s condition, improved with [supplementation] and diet. Dr. Arce knew the cause and the recommended treatment. At first I was dubious about it and worried and wondered for my mother. However, after three visits, my mother had no pain. Now she enjoys her good health, high energy, her excellent lab reports and she is off all prescription drugs. My oldest 13-year-old is another patient of Dr. Arce. Before she visited Dr. Arce, she had frequent asthma attacks, overweight, allergies and was pre-diabetic. With Dr.Arce’s recommendations, she continues to heal. She is now is even happier and feels much better physically, mentally, emotionally and even academically. Her grades have improved along with her concentration.  - Gina, Bayside, NY

I came to Dr. Arce with terrible migraines and severe depression, in addition to other health problems. I was having trouble concentrating on my work, and my depression and migraines were interfering with my quality of life. I went to a number of MDs and psychologists before, but no one listened to me like Dr. Arce. She was able to help me overcome my depression which reduced the frequency of my migraines. She helped me get my life back and taught me how to avoid getting into such a rut in the future. She's an excellent doctor, very patient, experienced, and down to earth. She truly cares about her patients and I'm glad I went to see her when I did. I highly recommend her to everyone I know.  - Janina, Brooklyn, NY
