Our Approach To Lyme Disease
Lyme is the number one reason why clients come to Thrive. Very often, does a client come in that already has been diagnosed with Lyme or that has symptoms pointing towards Lyme. With this bacterial infection on the rise, we have a very specific approach to attacking Lyme disease and meeting the client where they are in their healing journey.
What is Lyme?
Simply put, Lyme disease comes from the bite of a tick. The tick bites, transmits the microbe, and then drops off — most people aren’t even aware of being bitten. Because symptoms of the initial infection are so mild (if they occur at all), it’s not uncommon for people to be completely unaware of being infected. Borrelia burgdorferi is the microbe that’s associated with Lyme disease. If someone has a strong immune system, they can hold these tick microbe’s forever and not become symptomatic. However, if someone does become ill and their immune system becomes overrun, Lyme can be truly debilitating.
Lyme Symptoms
How one feels when Lyme is overrunning the body, varies greatly. As mentioned earlier, some with a strong immune system can live with Lyme and it not affect them much. However, for many this is not the case. When one first contracts Lyme the symptoms often mimic the flu with fever, body aches, fatigue, headaches, nausea, and the classic “bullseye rash.” If left untreated or not properly treated, Lyme disease can spread to the heart, joints, and nervous system, causing symptoms ranging from stiff neck, swollen joints, and muscle pain to heart palpitations, headaches, psychiatric symptoms (anxiety, depression, and aggression), irritable bladder, cognitive decline, insomnia, and night sweats.
How we approach Lyme
We address the underlying cause.
At Thrive, we have a tailored approach to Lyme called the Advanced Lyme Protocol. This protocol goes as such:
Scan - We run 5 additional Lyme scans that look at the body’s neurotoxins, co-infections, homeopathic suggestions, and Rife frequencies for healing.
Provide temporary relief - We provide a recommendation to help with current symptoms that is client-specific and based on scan results.
Address root-cause - We imprint 2-4 bottles with the scan results for the client to take come.
Add drainage method - We imprint again but in a drainage-specific bottle (herbs) that will help with organ drainage through the process.
Homework - Lastly, we send the client home with a strict protocol pertaining to diet to facilitate drainage and detox.
