In order to provide you with the care that you need, without insurance interference, I DO NOT accept insurance. This also maintains your privacy. 

Your health journey begins with a complimentary zoom call to answer any questions and advise you on how I can help you with your specific concerns. After payment, labs are ordered within 24 hours and are shipped to you within a week. You collect them in the privacy of your home (occasional local blood collection required) and return them via included pre-paid shipping. Results arrive in 3-4 weeks. During this waiting period, the 90 days has not started, and you will begin implementing required lifestyle routines. After the results appointment, 90 day protocol begins, including supplement integration. We will communicate through weekly surveys to monitor progress, text for quick questions, email for results and instructions throughout the protocol, and bi-weekly zoom appointments if needed. I'm available to you throughout the entire protocol for questions and adjustments, no third parties involved. 

Each individual has different health concerns, but some of the most common labs ordered are GI-Map, DUTCH plus, HTMA, MWP, MBA, and methylation profiles. These identify microbiome imbalances in the gut, inflammation, methylation issues, nutrient deficiencies, and hormone imbalance (including metabolism and clearance of hormones and utilization, not free floating totals in blood work from endocrinologists and fertility specialists). Free floating hormone levels in the blood do not address whether they have receptors available, if they have the required nutrients/precursors to do their job, or if they are being recycled properly.

Payment is collected in full with Stripe, via HIPAA-protected Healthie portal.

Retreats are separate from protocol. They are small, intimate experiences that provide rest and relaxation, functional wellness education, local wellness practices, and restorative movement. All retreats are hosted by me, your concierge coordinator, so that you can simply show up and heal. I also provide functional healing education along the way and answer any personal health questions that may arise. Flights not included but I can assist if necessary. 

Why do I have eczema, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, rosacea, acne, dermatitis, hives, or chronic rashes and can you help me?

​

Skin conditions are rarely a skin problem. They are an internal problem expressing itself externally. The skin is the body's largest detox organ, and when primary detox pathways become blocked (liver, kidneys, lymph, sweat, CO2, bowels), the body begins pushing toxins out through the skin. Underneath most chronic skin conditions, I find some combination of intestinal permeability, histamine intolerance, low DAO enzyme activity, imbalanced gut microbiome, and immune dysregulation. A permeable gut triggers antibody production that drives systemic inflammation. Standard treatments (steroids, antibiotics, topicals, antihistamines) do not address the underlying issues. They only shut off the smoke alarm, without putting out the fire. Steroids shut off the immune system, which we need in order to surveil for infections and cancer. Antihistamines block histamine, which we need to make neurotransmitters (dopamine, serotonin, GABA) so blocking these eventually contribute to anxiety, depression, dementia, and Alzheimers. Topical creams disrupt the external microbiome. My approach identifies the underlying imbalances, restores balance, which ultimately restores skin integrity without the long term adverse effects of medications. 

Why do I have lupus, scleroderma, sarcoidosis, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogrens, Hashimoto's, or multiple sclerosis and can you help me?

Autoimmune conditions are not the body attacking itself for no reason. At the foundation of almost every autoimmune condition is intestinal permeability, commonly known as leaky gut. It usually develops over time but sometimes appears to develop suddenly. This is just the final trigger to the cascade. When the gut lining becomes compromised (from antibiotics, surgery, procedures, stressful events, chronic stress, processed foods, antacid medications) undigested proteins from food and pathogens (that are normally neutralized in the stomach) enter the bloodstream where they don't belong. The immune system recognizes these particles as foreign and does its job to eradicate them (by creating antibodies). This means that you have now created antibodies (specialized soldiers) to normal, healthy foods, products that never bothered you before, and bacteria that are imbalanced in the gut. You now have all of these immune soldiers fighting normal, daily exposures (overactivity) while simultaneously missing true infections or cancer cells because they are preoccupied with too many other daily triggers. The immune system is present everywhere in the body so when you have all of these excess soldiers, friendly fire becomes an issue (friendly fire of your bodily tissues from inflammation, Crohn's, diverticulitis, ulcerative colitis). Long term leaky gut leads to nutrient deficiencies (because you are not absorbing them properly in the gut). Nutrient deficiencies lead to hormone disruption because they require these nutrients to be produced, utilized, and recycled (Hashimoto's). Treating these diagnoses without addressing what caused the immune dysfunction is why so many people remain sick despite diet change and medications. My approach aims to heal the gut lining, restore nutrient balance, microbiome balance, hormone balance, and overall metabolism, which then resolves the symptoms and lab markers that make up these diagnoses. 

Why do I have cancer and can you help me?

​​

While each cancer location and stage is different, cancer requires certain conditions in order to grow and spread. Some of these conditions include refined sugar to feed cancer cells, processed foods and chemicals that disrupt normal cell replication, immune system dysregulation (steroids turning off the immune system, permeable gut preoccupying the immune system with daily triggers), microbiome imbalance (antibiotics, antifungals, antivirals, permeable gut, stress, nutrient deficiency), impaired detox pathways (less than daily bowel movements, lack of exercise to sweat and blow off CO2, lack of cellular hydration, liver congestion) to name a few. The goal is to restore these pathways so that the immune system can do its job properly, decrease cell mutation, and essentially give the body what it needs to do its job and remove the stressors that are preventing it from doing its job. All cancers and individuals are different so a call and health forms are required to determine what level of reversal may be possible.
