Improve Your Life

Our services are all based in an integrative approach. Functional medicine is a real paradigm shift in the practice of health care.

Case Study: Melanie’s PMS Hell

A smart woman in her mid-forties, Melanie had written “Bad PMS” neatly on our patient intake form, and then gone on to trace the word “Bad” several times with her pen and underlined it. Until about ten years ago, the odds were stacked against women like Melanie, trying to get help from their doctors for […]

Prescription Refill
A CASE IN WHICH I SHAKE MY HEAD IN DISBELIEF

Really disheartening how his EPA lackeys finalized a rule that specifically states that before any reversal of an environmental hazard can […]

ADVANCES IN ROSACEA AND THE LITTLE FELLOW IN YOUR GUT

I wrote an article on Rosacea some years ago and afterward we’ve treated dozens of patients with both Rosacea, the Demodex skin mite, and small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). Trying to stay abreast of everything we treat here at WholeHealth Chicago, from chronic Lyme to chronic fatigue, from fibromyalgia to complementary cancer therapies is a […]
