Autoimmune Condition Support in Metro Detroit
Your immune system shouldn't attack you. We identify triggers, reduce inflammation, support gut health, and modulate immune function to manage autoimmune diseases through natural approaches.
Understanding Autoimmune conditions
Autoimmune conditions occur when the immune system attacks healthy tissue. While conventional medicine focuses on suppressing immunity, our functional medicine approach identifies and addresses triggers—gut dysfunction, food sensitivities, toxins, infections—to calm inflammation and support immune balance naturally.
Common Causes
- Leaky gut allowing immune triggers into bloodstream
- Molecular mimicry from food proteins or infections
- Chronic infections (viral, bacterial)
- Environmental toxin exposure
- Genetic predisposition activated by triggers
- Chronic stress and cortisol dysregulation
- Nutrient deficiencies affecting immune function
Signs & Symptoms
- Fatigue and weakness
- Joint pain and swelling
- Skin rashes or changes
- Digestive issues
- Recurring fevers
- Swollen glands
- Numbness and tingling
- Hair loss
- Brain fog and cognitive issues
When to Seek Professional Care
- You have a diagnosed autoimmune condition and want complementary support
- You suspect autoimmune issues but havent been diagnosed
- Current treatments arent providing adequate relief
- You want to address root causes alongside conventional treatment
