80% of your immune system lives in your gut. Research has revealed that genetics, environmental factors, and intestinal impermeability play a role in the development of autoimmune diseases.1 Through our personalized intake process, we help you to uncover your root causes that may be contributing to your most severe symptoms.
Often the result of long-term inflammation and depletion of nutrients, fatigue can be addressed by increasing your intake of protein and vegetables and creating a bedtime routine that supports a higher quality of sleep.
Autoimmune Symptoms We Help You Alleviate
Joint pain & swelling

Fevers are your body's way of telling you it's fighting something. This can be addressed by identifying what is igniting this fighting response like food sensitivities.
Autoimmune Symptoms We Help You Alleviate
Swollen glands
Lymph glands are the factory for your immune cells so when they are swollen, they are hard at work. To calm down that factory line, we need to make sure your body is not experiencing other stressors, further depleting nutrients. To do this, we might focus on building a toolbox of stress management strategies.
