Road To Remission Functional Medicine

Welcome!

Since you’re here, you likely have one or more autoimmune conditions and you’re interested in safe and natural approaches to help you get better. You may have logged in many hours searching for answers on the internet or tried a one-size-fits-all approach from a book or two. Perhaps you feel overwhelmed and tired, and you wonder what healing steps are right for you.

Take a breath, and relax. We got your back. Here you get to stop endlessly trying to figure out how to get your health back on your own. You’re right to seek holistic solutions to autoimmunity and out-of-control inflammation because they exist. However you’re an individual, and your recovery journey needs to be tailored to you. This is what we do here. We use functional medicine testing and protocols, all personalized to you.

When you work with us, you can trust an autoimmune expert who walks you through the essential steps toward wellness. Through 20+ years of working with hundreds of women, Laura has discovered that these are the necessary steps to control inflammation and stop autoimmunity in its tracks. You may reduce or go off medication. Signs, symptoms, and lab markers of your autoimmune condition may disappear. These steps are the path toward remission, freedom from debilitating inflammation, and better future health outcomes.

Functional Medicine for autoimmune health

Laura takes the time to listen and work with me on realistic goals.

“Working with Laura, I have a better understanding about what’s good for my autoimmunity concerns. In my late 20s, Laura was the first to point out my Hashimotos when no other doctor had ever done that. Autoimmunity issues are so prevalent and Laura helps to not only educate, but also works with me at my pace. She is understanding and, unlike other medical professionals, she takes the time to listen and work with me on realistic goals.”

Dr. Laura’s ROADMap to remission:
  • CLEAR TRIGGERS Any type of chronic inflammation in your system can create the cytokines that drive autoimmunity. In this step, we assess and address your personal inflammation triggers, including lifestyle factors. Some of the big ones include allergies, infections, blood sugar dysregulation, stress chemistry, poor sleep, and hormone imbalance.
  • HEAL YOUR GUT Working with gut health is key to reducing inflammation and reversing autoimmunity. In this step, we assess food sensitivities, develop a personalized anti-inflammatory healing food plan, optimize your gut microbiome, heal leaky gut, improve digestion, and correct nutrient deficiencies.
  • REGULATE WITH SUPPLEMENTS – The best leverage we have for autoimmunity is to use nutrients that regulate your immune system. Your immune system is confused and needs regulation, not “strengthening” or suppression. Fortunately, we can do this through targeted supplements that directly support the T cells and cytokines that stop the autoimmune process.

Laura is the person you’ve been looking for!

“I started working with Laura about 15 years ago and shortly after that, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. Laura has been nothing but amazing over the past 15 years in helping me get into remission. She is extremely knowledgeable in everything related to autoimmunity and women’s health and she’s been a crucial part of how I’ve been able to stay in remission for many years. Laura really cares about whether a suggestion she has works and is great at pivoting when anything changes. She doesn’t over-prescribe supplements and only suggests testing when she really thinks it will help you. I always trust that Laura has the most current health information and she really cares about her patients. Over the years, I’ve recommended Laura to many of my friends, who’ve all loved working with her as well.  I can’t say enough wonderful things about Laura. She’s amazing to work with and I’m so thankful to her for having such a passion about autoimmune diseases. If you’re struggling with an autoimmune disease, Laura is the person you’ve been looking for!”
