Navigating autoimmunity, where the body’s immune response attacks healthy tissue by mistake, can be confusing and frustrating.

Symptoms like inflammation, fatigue, digestive concerns, skin issues, and joint pain are often misdiagnosed, leaving patients without a clear plan of action.

In our upcoming webinar, Dr. Joe Glowiak, DC, MS, will explore autoimmune conditions from a Functional Medicine perspective,

We’ll cover a general overview of autoimmunity and take a deep dive into specific conditions, such as Rheumatoid Arthritis, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, and Psoriatic Arthritis.

Through the lens of Functional Medicine, we’ll review how in-depth testing can help identify and treat the root causes of your complaints.

Rather than defaulting to pharmaceuticals to mask symptoms, Functional Medicine can help you incorporate a personalized strategy for long-term relief and improved well-being.

If you are unsure about your autoimmune health and finding it hard to manage symptoms, join us to empower yourself with knowledge!

Ever wonder why migraines can feel like a mystery wrapped in a brain-pounding enigma?

It’s because migraine symptoms are wildly confusing and vary widely from person to person.

One day, it’s the classic throbbing headache; the next, you’re navigating through nausea, dizziness, or even seeing light spots. And triggers? They’re just as unique. From weather changes to certain foods, what sets off a migraine for one might not for another. This makes understanding and managing migraines a complex puzzle. 

If you are ready for lasting solutions, we are here to take your questions.

Join our live chat at 12:15pm and learn more about a personalized, comprehensive approach to migraine management.

If you have specific questions, visit our Instagram story to submit in advance. 

🍏Hosts: Dr. Lamya Kamel, L.Ac, Dipl. OM, MSTOM, DAOM and Heidi Irwin, L.Ac., Dipl. OM, MSOM

Migraines are sometimes mistakenly dismissed by healthcare providers as just “bad headaches.”��

When individuals feel they aren’t being taken seriously by their doctor, they stop openly discussing their symptoms and are discouraged from seeking proper treatment.��

Migraines are a very real and often debilitating health issue.��

This complex neurological condition, affecting 148 million people, is considered the third most common illness in the world and impacts women disproportionately (3-to-1).��

In today’s webinar at noon, we’ll break through the barriers that surround treatment.

Through the lens of integrative medicine, we’ll explore a comprehensive approach to migraine management that seeks to understand the root cause and the often under-addressed multi-factor nature of migraines. �

SPEAKERS:��
Dr. James Mattison, DC, RTP - Functional Medicine Physician��

Throbbing, pulsing head pain.

Sensitivity to light, sound, and smell.

Nausea or vomiting.

If these symptoms sound normal, you are no stranger to the debilitating effects of migraines.
Symptom suppression may also be a familiar story – a battle that starts only after the pain strikes.

Did you know underlying health issues (that are often overlooked) could be at the source of your migraines? Treating your root cause can help prevent and lessen the impact of migraines before they begin.

Hormone imbalance, perimenopause, menstrual irregularity, and sleep disorders, are just a few examples of common —yet under-identified— migraine triggers.

If you’re tired of temporary fixes, it’s time to get to the bottom of your migraine mystery with a deeper understanding of not just relief, but long-term migraine management with sustainable comprehensive care!

When it comes to stress management, many of us - around 62% - are bearing our burdens alone - according to the American Psychological Association’s 2023 survey.

Our tendency to downplay stress is just one reason for this.

Lack of time is another top reason respondents gave for not seeking treatment.

Unaddressed, daily stress can accumulate in the body, causing inflammation, taxing the immune system, and increasing the risk of health complications, including digestive issues, heart disease, weight gain, and stroke.

In today’s lunchtime webinar, we’ll take a collective moment to pause and breathe with real-time guidance and support from licensed Acupuncturist Dr. Christina Slyter, L.Ac, DACM, MSTOM, Dipl. OM, LMT.

Tired of feeling run down this winter? IV Vitamin Therapy is here to replenish those essential nutrients depleted by poor diet, stress, overexertion, and chronic illness. With up to 99% absorption, it’s a game-changer for transforming winter wellness.

By delivering essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream, IV Vitamin Therapy bypasses the digestive system, thereby providing necessary nutrients that the stomach may not be able to absorb effectively.

While IV Vitamin Therapy is beneficial for all wellness seekers, this method’s ability to bypass absorption problems makes it an excellent option for individuals with certain gastrointestinal and digestive conditions.

In our next webinar, Thursday February 22nd, Director of Functional Medicine and Clinical Nutrition Dr. Delilah Renegar, DC, will explore the “how’s” and “why’s” of IV Vitamin Therapy and discuss the benefits to the immune system, digestive function, metabolic system, cognitive function, athletic performance and recovery, hydration, sleep, stress, and beauty.

Whether you’re an active sports enthusiast or simply seeking to elevate your winter wellness, this webinar is your gateway to unlocking the full potential of IV Vitamin Therapy!
