Thyroid Disease
Extensive functional assessment for thyroid conditions that goes beyond standard TSH testing to address the root cause of your thyroid imbalance.
The Thyroid Epidemic
Thyroid disorders affect an estimated 20 million people in the U.S. Many people are not even aware that they have a thyroid problem, since the diagnosis is often missed. Thyroid disorders are considered to be on the rise, likely related to widespread nutrient deficiencies, exposure to environmental toxins, poor gut health, and the increasing prevalence of autoimmunity. Women are also much more likely than men to develop thyroid disorders.
Not only are thyroid disorders often poorly diagnosed, they are often poorly treated. Conventional therapies often fail to address the underlying cause of disease. Even after being placed on thyroid medication for hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), most commonly Synthroid® (or levothyroxine), many patients will continue to suffer with symptoms.
Their doctors may insist that if their blood levels are "normal" their symptoms can't possibly be due to their thyroid. In our practice, we take a holistic approach to addressing thyroid conditions by searching for the root cause through extensive functional assessment and using natural therapies to regain balance in the thyroid.
Symptoms of Thyroid Disorders
Our Holistic Approach
We address thyroid disorders from multiple angles, searching for the root cause and using natural therapies to restore balance.
Functions of the Thyroid
The thyroid gland produces hormones that regulate virtually every cell in your body, controlling metabolism, energy, temperature, heart rate, and more.
Lab Testing
We run a comprehensive thyroid panel — not just TSH — to get the full picture of your thyroid function, including Free T4, Free T3, Reverse T3, and thyroid antibodies.
Thyroid & Autoimmunity
Hashimoto's thyroiditis is the most common cause of hypothyroidism. We identify and address autoimmune triggers including gut health, food sensitivities, and environmental toxins.
Thyroid Hormone Replacement
When medication is needed, we consider the full range of options including natural desiccated thyroid, compounded T3/T4, and optimized dosing based on your individual response.
Comprehensive Lab Testing
- TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone)
- Free T4 (Thyroxine)
- Free T3 (Triiodothyronine)
- Reverse T3
- Thyroid Antibodies (TPO & TG)
- Comprehensive metabolic panel
Essential Nutrients for Thyroid
Essential building block for thyroid hormone production.
Critical for thyroid hormone conversion (T4 to T3) and reducing antibodies.
Supports thyroid hormone synthesis and receptor sensitivity.
Required for proper thyroid peroxidase enzyme function.
Modulates immune function and supports thyroid health.
Support energy metabolism and adrenal-thyroid axis.
Stress & Hormones
Chronic stress directly impacts thyroid function through the adrenal-thyroid axis. Elevated cortisol can suppress TSH production, inhibit T4 to T3 conversion, and increase Reverse T3 levels. Our approach addresses stress and adrenal health as a critical component of thyroid recovery, ensuring that the entire hormonal system is brought back into balance.
