Get to the Root
The infection is over. You still aren’t well.
You got sick, and then you didn’t get better. Months or years later you’re dealing with exhaustion that sleep doesn’t fix, a brain that won’t hold a thought, a gut that changed, and a body that crashes after doing too much. Tests often come back normal, which makes it harder, not easier.

My Approach
Many of these illnesses run through the gut and the immune system, which is where my practice is centered. Chinese medicine has a long tradition of treating illness that lingers after an acute infection, and a detailed vocabulary for the ways the body gets stuck.
​
Care focuses on what most affects your daily life: fatigue, sleep, digestion, cognitive symptoms, and autonomic symptoms such as dizziness or a racing heart on standing.
​
Treatment is paced. If you have post-exertional malaise, the wrong kind of push makes things worse. I don’t use stimulating protocols that borrow energy you don’t have. The goal is steady ground gained, and kept.
What Care Looks Like
​
I review your records and history before we meet, including what you’ve already tried. For people with limited energy, the initial consultation can be split or held by telehealth. Formulas are started gently and adjusted in small steps. Care runs as a long-term program with regular reviews.
​
Working with your doctors
​
I work alongside your physician, and I don’t advise changes to prescribed medication. Every formula is screened for interactions. New or worsening symptoms go back to your doctor for evaluation.

If you’re still unwell after an infection and running out of options, I’d be glad to talk.
