Holistic Fibromyalgia Treatment
Fibromyalgia is a multi-symptom and multi-system disease with chronic widespread pain that can change location along with other difficult to treat symptoms like fatigue, sleep disturbances and cognitive symptoms including brain fog and depressed mood.
The cause is still poorly understood but is multifactorial, involving neuro-immune dysregulation and it may even share some similarities to an autoimmune disease. There is also evidence that alterations to the endocannabinoid system, which processes pain, the stress response and modulates the immune system, is also involved. There is a limited efficacy of conventional drugs and poor tolerance of first line drug choices, since people with fibromyalgia tend to experience more severe drug side effects likely due to neuro-immune system differences.
However, novel botanical medicines used in combination, can dramatically and quickly improve symptoms, pain and quality of life. Working on improving nervous system dysregulation, reducing inflammation and improving mitochondrial function for fatigue and brain fog symptoms in a personalized holistic treatment plan can also help with healing and recovery and regaining function.
Our Process
Step 1.
Rapid Symptom Relief With Novel Medicines
Novel botanical medicines influence multiple biological functions and often bring rapid relief of symptoms within days.
Most patients see a significant improvement within the first month of therapy across multiple symptom clusters including mood, fatigue, stress, pain, sleep and mental function.
Novel Medicines Can Dramatically improve Quality Of Life
Many patients are able to wean down on other medications to help to further improve symptoms and quality of life and reduce unnecessary drug side effects.
Step 2.
Long Term Recovery
Once initial symptoms are relieved, we develop a personalized holistic long-term treatment plan, since even two people with the same diagnosis can need different things. This can include:
- Drug therapy –
- Functional medicine testing – advanced tests to identify root causes of symptoms such as microbiome testing, brain-gut axis function, methylation pathways and hormone levels
- Nutritional medicine – personalized therapeutic diets, supplements and botanicals.
- Mindbody medicine – meditation, relaxation response training, biofeedback.
- Lifestyle medicine – sleep, exercise, work/home environment.
Step 3.
Long Term Resilience
Resilience is the ability to adapt and bounce back in the face of challenging circumstances.
The ability to reduce distress, both mentally and physically enhances your quality of life & activates our inner potential for healing. Resilience can always be improved regardless of your medical diagnoses.
Our virtual platform gives you access to holistic tools and resources as part of your treatment to enhance your resilience further, manage your holistic health & see your progress over time so you can get better and stay better.
