Energetic Assessments
Energetic consults in person consist of:
Meridian Analysis testing to assess energy/voltage in each acupuncture meridian and determine low areas
Polarity assessment and correction with the Biomodulator/Transducer
Heavy metals and mineral testing using and oligoscan and discussing detox options
Reviewing dental history and prioritizing areas of concern affecting the acupuncture meridian energy flow
Scars are addressed and treated if deemed necessary (small scars often do not drain energy)
Thyroid and Adrenal Fatigue addressed and treated if needed
Lab work ordered if needed
Bioientical hormone replacement therapy may be recommended for
MEN (Testosterone/DHEA/Estrogen Blocker)
WOMEN (Estrogen/Progesterone/Testosterone/DHEA)
Emotions are assessed (not addressed) at this visit via history and other presenting physical symptoms
Getting well is often a combination of the above issues that need to be addressed. A protocol is put in place to begin working through these areas for you. Nutritional supplements are often needed to address the lack in nutritional foundation.

Can these consults be done remotely? Yes! Heavy metal/mineral status will no be addressed in a remote visit but general detox will be discussed.

There are thyroid receptors on every cell of the body, that is why it affects so many organ systems. The thyroid must be optimized to achieve better health and vitality. The pituitary gland releases TSH to talk to the thyroid. The thyroid organ then releases T4 (storage hormone) which much be convereted to T3 (active hormone) to be used at the cellular level. Genetic mutations have been found in individuals that decrease the conversion of T4 to T3. Stress, poor nutrition, heavy metal exposure, emotional stress can decreased this conversion. A patients TSH test may be normal but they are cellularly hypothyroid with symptoms. The T3 must be optimized a patient to have the cellular energy to have proper function and for symptoms to resolve.
The TSH test is inadequate to identify cellular thyroid function and T4 only replacement (Synthroid) is inadequate for many patients. A Free T3 and Reverse T3 tests are always ordered and often will add a Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody and Anti-Thryoglobulin Antibody tests to rule out Hashimoto's thyroiditis (the leading cause of hypothyroidism in the United States).
Natural desiccated thyroid replacement (T3/T4) and bioidentical compounded T3/T4 combinations are used. Sustained release options are also used. Ultrasounds of the thyroid are ordered if needed to assess nodules or inflammation.
Do you have low adrenal function? How many of these symptoms do you feel?
Dizzy when standing (low blood pressure)
Brain “fog”
Crave sugar or salty foods
Inability to handle stress
Decreased sex drive
Chronic or worsening fatigue, not relieved by adequate sleep or rest
Insomnia
Moodiness
Exhausted after exercise (feeling wiped out)
Muscle weakness
Swollen ankles which worsen at night
Recurrent infections
Loss of appetite (weight loss)
Food sensitivities
Inability to tolerate thyroid replacement therapy
What can cause adrenal fatigue?
Prolonged emotional stress
Chronic disease states
Hormone imbalance
Surgery or accidents
Helping to support the adrenal glands requires a prolonged approach with nutrition, supplements based on which part of the adrenal gland is low, and lifestyle changes. Replacing adrenal hormone at times is necessary for short time period.
