Thyroid Disorder

OUR HOLISTIC APPROACH

What Is A Thyroid Disorder?

We specialize in treating a range of thyroid disorders, including hypothyroidism (including Hashimoto's disease), hyperthyroidism, and thyroid nodules. These conditions can significantly impact your overall health and quality of life, and our goal is to provide personalized, effective treatment.

Hypothyroidism and Associated Symptoms

Hypothyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones, leading to a slowdown in metabolic processes. This condition is often associated with Hashimoto's disease, an autoimmune disorder that attacks the thyroid. Common symptoms of hypothyroidism include:

  • Fatigue and low energy levels
  • Hair loss (including thinning hair and loss of eyebrow hair)
  • Constipation
  • Dry skin
  • Menstrual irregularities
  • Poor sleep quality
  • Sensitivity to cold

Hyperthyroidism and Associated Symptoms

Hyperthyroidism, on the other hand, occurs when the thyroid gland produces too much hormone, speeding up metabolic processes. Symptoms you may experience include:

  • Diarrhea or frequent bowel movements
  • Rapid heartbeat (palpitations)
  • Tachycardia (increased heart rate)
  • Weight loss despite increased appetite
  • Anxiety and irritability
  • Heat intolerance

Our Holistic Approach

We believe in a holistic approach to thyroid health. Our primary goals are to:

  • Optimize Thyroid Function: We assess your thyroid hormone levels and tailor treatment plans to restore hormonal balance.
  • Address Root Causes: We investigate potential underlying factors contributing to thyroid dysfunction, including nutrient deficiencies, autoimmune conditions, digestive dysfunction and environmental toxins.
  • Personalized Treatment Plans: We create individualized plans that may include dietary recommendations, lifestyle modifications, and supplementation to support thyroid health.
