Long Haul Covid
Long Haul Covid affects the whole body. We’re here to help you get back to yourself, again. You’re worth it!
This disease is a real doozie. It affects every single part of the body and affects people differently. Although research and conventional treatment options are emerging, functional medicine gets to the root cause of your issues and we can make some positive changes quickly and naturally. Robust healing does take time which is why the protocols are in 6 month blocks during which we address your gut function, mitochondria (energy), vascular health, hormone balance, nervous system (headaches, neuropathic pain), and more. Some people require longer time to heal and we can accomodate that.
Using advance lab testing we can determine where the pathogens or deficiencies are, where your body needs support and specific supplements and lifestyle changes that will help you get there. Healing takes time. People desperately need this care and often when they bring up their concerns to their providers, they are dismissed with a ‘garbage can’ diagnosis of fibromyalgia, depression, anxiety or put on antidepressants.
We are here to listen to you, validate your experience and help you restore your health. Your participation and engagement in your care plan are essential. Adhering to treatment guidelines, giving it your very best and keeping a positive attitude (even just a little bit) goes a long way toward your recovery. There is life after Covid and we deserve to be happy, healthy and hopeful. We are here for you! It is time to show up for yourself because you are worth it!
The first step is to make a no-charge 15 minute consulation so we can discuss whether this approach would work for you, your needs and our office.
Ways to get care
Non-Lab Based Protocol
This option is safe for most people. You can access my specific protocol for functional medicine supplements without lab work. We prefer you get lab work but some people can’t afford them and need care and are willing to take the risk of potentially under-dosing. You assume risk here that would be mitigated with lab work.
How this works, we have an initial functional medicine visit to determine whether this plan is safe and appropriate for you. 6 months.
Includes 1 Functional Medicine Initial Visit, 5 follow ups and baseline supplements for 6 months.
Can be broken up into monthly payments.
Paid in full, you will receive 10% off supplements.
Lab-Based Protocol, Individual
Using specific testing: 3x4 Genetics, GI Map, Metabolomix and in some cases, DUTCH and Food Sensitivity, we can bio-hack your health and ensure that you are getting the right amount of supplementation as well as refer you out to other providers for higher level medical care, e.g., cardiologist. These tests are phenomenal, extremely helpful and accurate. Often when doctors say they don’t know what’s wrong or ‘everything is normal/negative’ it is because they are not using these tests which would give them the right information so you would have answers. We all deserve to have robust information to make informed choices for our body.

Group Visits
Healing happens in a group. Members will have option to join others in their healing journey. We meet in the Well World App and discuss topics: best practices for sleep, nutrition, breathwork, posture, vagus nerve exercises, personal growth, and hear from your other covid long haul heroes to be in community with them and hear what is working for them and what they are struggling with. The group setting is not the place to ask personal questions about your labs,etc, which are the domain of the individual session. Bring your concerns, comments, insights, hopes and plans for a brighter future you!
