ABOUT OUR PRACTICE
Sacred Heart Center offers a new approach to healthcare.
We believe in a dynamic partnership between you and your doctor.
​At Sacred Heart Center, you’ll discover a unique relationship between you and your doctor that ensures a positive move toward health, healing, and optimal wellness. You will never feel rushed nor be told that we will only address one complaint at each visit.
Dr. Mulliken goes beyond a quick 15-minute office visit that focuses on symptoms, a quick diagnosis, and a prescription drug treatment with no improvement towards overall health or healthy aging.​​​
​
Dr. Mulliken has been in practice in the Kennebunk area since 2002, with his beloved wife, Teresa A. Caprio, DO, who passed away in 2023 after a courageous battle with cancer.
Working together for so many years, Dr. Caprio and Dr. Mulliken found that the philosophies of Osteopathic and Naturopathic Medicine share many of the same beliefs. Dr. Mulliken continues to practice at Sacred Heart, carrying on those shared beliefs:
​
-
Promotion of health and wellness, not merely identifying a disease
-
Identifying and treating the underlying cause of illness, while promoting health
-
Treatments are based on the understanding that the body is one unit, consisting of body, mind, and spirit
-
The body has a self-regulating, self-healing mechanism to prevent illness and maintain health — as doctors, we can assist that mechanism to help each patient to heal​​
Dr. Mulliken utilizes conventional medicine as well as complementary and integrative medicine for a complete and comprehensive approach in caring for his patients.
​
Sacred Heart Center uses the latest testing and treatment in the areas of genetics, autoimmune and metabolic disorders, tick-borne infectious, gastrointestinal illnesses, hormonal imbalances, musculoskeletal injuries, and many other illnesses. We focus on the promotion of healing through biochemical pathways, nutrition, osteopathic manipulation, and both pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical supplementation.
​
Sacred Heart Center also uses FDA approved cutting-edge technology with Low Level Laser Treatment from both THOR and Erchonia. Laser therapy (also called Photobiomodulation) is painless and non-invasive, without side effects, and is used to treat soft tissue injury, arthritic issues, low back pain, plantar fasciitis, and many other conditions. Low Level Laser Treatment has brought an entirely new and exciting area of treatment to the patients at Sacred Heart!
​
Dr. Mulliken upholds the Hippocratic Oath "To first do no harm.” He will not use treatments that do not have adequate research to support their effectiveness and safety. You can turn to Sacred Heart Center with confidence for treatment and care that guides you every step of the way, as you begin your journey to a more healthy and vital life.
