Conventional Medicine Limits Healing Options for Thyroid Patients

Conventional Medicine Limits Healing Options for Thyroid Patients

According to the American Thyroid Association, more than

12% of the U.S. population will develop a thyroid condition at some point in life.

Unfortunately, most of these patients will experience a standard of care that focuses solely on masking symptoms and does not address the root cause of disease. In fact, the only tools that traditional medicine utilizes for thyroid issues are basic testing and prescription medications (which often create even more health complications down the line).

These limitations leave patients to fight the uphill battle of advocating for their own health in a surface-level system, all while dealing with significant health problems.

Hormones and regulates metabolism, influences every cell, tissue, and organ in the body and directly impacts critical bodily functions, such as energy level and heart rate. When thyroid functioning is impaired, such as the case with hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, and a range of other complications, patients may deal with a series of serious symptoms that drastically affect quality of life, including: forgetfulness, extreme weight gain or loss, depression, fatigue, irritability, nervousness, muscle weakness, sleep disturbances, and vision problems, to name a few.

Functional medicine is a holistic treatment philosophy that considers the medical, physical, neurological, and psychological aspects of an individual’s health, functional medicine focuses on treating the whole person rather than isolated diseases.

After identifying the root cause of disease, a thorough treatment protocol is developed to help provide relief from existing symptoms without causing additional damage or side effects.

30 Years of Experience Treating Thyroid Conditions

You Deserve to Utilize EVERY Available Tool for Your Healing

Common knowledge tells us to approach even minor health complications, like colds and flus, on multiple fronts: get lots of rest (support your immune system), drink lots of fluids (detox), eat some soup and take some vitamin C (ensure proper nutrition).

In these cases, it’s second nature for us to do everything in our power to restore health — so why should we settle for pigeon-holed treatment when health complications are even more serious? You deserve comprehensive, sustainable healing. Our functional medicine approach has helped countless patients from all walks of life find just that.
