Autoimmune Program

No… you’re not crazy! What you don’t need is another person dismissing your complaints of fatigue, muscle pain, skin concerns, weight gain, brain fog… you get the point. You just need someone that will listen for more than a couple minutes and be open-minded about the possibilities that what you’re experiencing may actually not be normal.

That’s where we come in! Introducing the Autoimmune Program, meticulously designed to address your needs through comprehensive testing, dedicated visits, and our wealth of knowledge and expertise.

Conditions We Treat

All Autoimmune Conditions

Autoimmune conditions encompass a diverse group of disorders where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues, leading to inflammation, tissue damage, and a range of symptoms. These conditions can affect virtually any part of the body, resulting in a wide array of symptoms and complications.

GI Problems

Gastrointestinal (GI) issues are common in many autoimmune conditions. These GI issues may manifest differently, but often include symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, nausea, vomiting, and difficulty swallowing.

Thyroid Conditions

Thyroid conditions, particularly autoimmune thyroid diseases, are among the most common autoimmune conditions worldwide. Two primary autoimmune thyroid diseases are Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and Graves’ disease, both of which involve the immune system attacking the thyroid gland.

Skin Concerns

Autoimmune conditions often manifest through skin changes and rashes. A lot of times, this is even the first sign of an underlying issues.

Brain Fog

Brain fog is a common yet often overlooked symptom experienced by individuals with autoimmune conditions. It refers to a sensation of mental fogginess, confusion, and difficulty concentrating, and is often considered “normal” for aging.

Fatigue

Fatigue is one of the most prevalent and debilitating symptoms associated with autoimmune conditions and is an often neglected and dismissed when brought up with traditional providers.

Rachel’s Story

One of very own co-owners, Rachel, has battled thyroid issues for years. Despite visits with primary care physicians and endocrinologists who repeatedly deemed her health as “normal” and dismissed her symptoms, Rachel persisted in seeking answers. Through further investigation and with the assistance of our Nurse Practitioner, Bethany Foss, they uncovered, via comprehensive lab testing and research, that Rachel has an autoimmune condition known as Hashimoto’s.

As a result of this discovery and Rachel’s personal journey with Hashimoto’s, she and Bethany collaborated to develop the autoimmune program, aiming to offer support and assistance to others who have encountered similar challenges.

from start to finish

We offer an intensive 1-year autoimmune program to address the underlying causes of autoimmune conditions to help you feel your best. We take a deep dive into the triggers that can cause the immune system to flare. By identifying and treating these triggers, we can get you back to feeling your best while teaching you how to avoid recurrent flares.

This program is all-inclusive. You pay one price and everything else is included. You will meet with a nurse practitioner or APRN who will review your test results and make an individualized plan based on these results. You will then be scheduled for several follow-up visits to ensure the adjustments being made are working so you can get back to feeling your best.

THE IMPACT

Our clients have seen and felt life-changing affects from our AutoIummune Program. Check out what they have to say.

“I made an appointment to see Bethany about a month ago. I had been to see 4 other medical doctors who only wanted to have me take antibiotic after antibiotic and steroids that did nothing. I had about given up hope when my chiropractor told me about Bethany. She has truly been a Godsend. My skin has cleared up and I am so happy! We still have a lot of work to do because I was a mess! But I totally have faith in being able to finally, one day soon, be pain free. Professional, knowledgable, and such a breath of fresh air. She gets me. I am all about herbs and getting my body back to doing what it is supposed to be doing…healing itself. Vitamins, minerals, herbs and when necessary, some proper western medication. If you are fed up with the “sick-care” system that we are in, I strongly urge you to see Bethany for true health care.”

You ask, we answer

Looking for additional information? Explore our frequently asked questions to discover the answers you need.

Do I have to be seen in office to enroll in the autoimmune program?

We must see you in-person for your first visit and for testing. After the initial visit with our Nurse Practitioner, you are able to do your visits with her through Telehealth.

When Can I Expect Symptom Improvement?

Although symptom improvement varies from person to person, we typically see symptom improvement within 1-3 months of starting the program.

Will I be expected to change my entire lifestyle?

You will not be expected to change everything in your life; however, we will ask that you eliminate possible triggers for a period of time to help determine what is causing your inflammation. We typically make small changes at a time so we can understand what is helping your symptoms and what is not so that you will have the least restrictions possible. Once your triggers are identified, avoidance of those triggers is advised.

Will this program cure my autoimmune disease?

There is no cure for autoimmune disease, but this program can help identify triggers to your autoimmune disease. By eliminating triggers, remission of your autoimmune disease can occur.

does this program manage my thyroid medications?

Our nurse practitioners will manage thyroid medications during your time in the program. This management will be carefully tailored based on lab results and your symptoms.

what experience do the practitioners have?

Our team consists of a collaborating physician, nurse practitioners, and registered nurses. We have specialized training in functional medicine, weight management, thyroid and autoimmune conditions, vitamin and nutritional support, and family medicine.

Rachel is a co-owner and an Advanced Practice Nurse that developed the autoimmune program after suffering from an autoimmune condition herself. She has done extensive research and was able to heal her autoimmune condition and put it in remission with the same tools we will offer to you. She is a wealth of knowledge in this area and has worked closely with our other nurse practitioners to create a comprehensive program.

what happens after the year-long program ends?

Although a year seems like a long time, when dealing with autoimmune or thyroid conditions, healing takes times. During the year long program, we will get to the root of your inflammation and pinpoint your specific triggers to help reduce inflammation and symptoms. Healing an autoimmune condition can take longer than a year and that’s why we have a direct primary care practice where you can continue your care after the year long program is over. You will be able to work with the same practitioner you saw during the autoimmune program and will get to continue working towards feeling your best.
