Could You be Allergic to Your Car Seats? Formaldehyde!

I've known Dr. Wilson for about 20 years now. I came into him after going through a time period where I had lost my appetite and I went to the doctors and they couldn't quite figure out what exactly was going on with me. At some point I was having some back pain so I did get a recommendation to go see a chiropractor, which wasn't Dr. Wilson at the time. Saw that person for several months and they decided to recommend me to Dr. Wilson! So walking into his office, we went through a bunch of questions, he did some …

Allergies and Auto-Immune type Symptoms: Could they be Related?

So, I had, like, a lot of health problems and some autoimmune stuff and, just, some sort of, symptoms that would maybe lead to knowing that something was wrong, but I wasn't aware that I had any allergies.  When Taylor first came to see Dr. Wilson, she had no idea that she had allergies.  I think the first thing that drew me in was, I wanted to get blood testing done and from what I had heard, Dr. Wilson had a very, comprehensive blood test that, kind of, just checked off all the boxes of things that I wanted tested, so it seemed like …

Hear Jen's Personal Journey with Allergies and Working with Dr. Wilson, D.PSc.

Jen shares her experience as a patient of Dr. Jay Wilson... So I started seeing Dr. Wilson just over a year ago, and I was experiencing a lot of health issues. I had been to a lot of different doctors and everyone was telling me there wasn't anything wrong with me. And it was interesting coming here for the first time because Dr. Wilson was different from day one. He was very interested in hearing me, what was important to me, the issues that I was having, and really seemed to care about addressing those issues and getting me into a better …

Pam's Experience with Allergies and getting them Eliminated with Dr. Wilson, D.PSc.

Pam talks about her experience as a patient of Dr. Wilson's and how many Allergies Dr. Wilson found she had before starting The Wilson Protocol for Allergy Elimination... I'm Pam V. I had 45 that he came up with. What I actually came to Dr. Wilson for was an allergy I'm having in my eye, and we're still trying to get to the bottom of that, but I have been taking treatments for the other allergies that I have.  Q: Can I ask, why did you pick Dr. Wilson’s treatment?   I had been with another holistic doctor and last fall he relocated out of …

Twins Roxy and Shelly had Over 60 Allergies each. See how they resolved them!

Shelly and Roxy, twin sisters and patients of Dr. Jay Wilson, open up about working with Dr. Wilson on their Allergy concerns... Q: Did you ever think allergies could be eliminated before meeting with Dr. Wilson? Roxy: I did not. And I will say that I'm a bit of a skeptic and I was pleasantly surprised when my husband had the success that he did. Because when he first started coming to Dr. Wilson I wasn't sure what his experience would be. But, you know, we would go to restaurants that had open-air kitchens and we would have to leave those restaurants because the …

What are Energy Exchanges?

Kelly Kay, L.Ac., New Paradigm MDT Energy Work practices at Enlighten Holistic Medicine and has 12 years of experience (01/03/2020)
Kelly Kay, L.Ac. Energy is everywhere! It's in clients that we work with, it's in spaces that we work in, so energy exchanges can absolutely happen between a healthcare provider and a patient.  It can happen in a room; if you're seeing a lot of people in a room and you notice when you come into a room and it just feels heavy, it feels, like, you know, you want to feel lighter when you come into a space. So it's really important to maintain your own energetic clarity as much as possible. This happens frequently when you're working with someone else …

Acupuncture and Sports Medicine

Dr. Hilary Patzer, L.Ac., Craniosacral, Neurokinetic & Level III Fascial Stretch Specialist, Life & Health Coach practices at JADA Studios (01/16/2020)
How is Acupuncture used in Sports Medicine? - Dr. Hilary Patzer, L.Ac. Which might be different than how acupuncture is used for the general public. For sports medicine, acupuncture is awesome for relieving muscle tension. All of those knots you feel, those are adhesions in the muscle and acupuncture can go and blow them up and get the muscle fibers to realign. It’s great for joint pain, inflammation, blood flow...so getting you ready for the game. Or inflammation, bringing you down after the game. You have built up lactic acid and inflammation. It’s really good for helping to control stress. Even if, …

Energy Burnout for Practitioners

Kelly Kay, L.Ac., New Paradigm MDT Energy Work practices at Enlighten Holistic Medicine and has 12 years of experience (01/17/2020)
Kelly Kay, L.Ac. So burnout for healthcare providers is real, and there are different signs that it can be happening to you. One of the signs is feeling tired for no apparent reason, one of the signs is not wanting to go into work the same way that you used to, one of the signs can be, simply, almost a “resentment” that you have to see another patient, or add on something else into your day. And for me, that is one of the number one signs of when I know I'm starting to get burnt out, is that I, kind …

Leaky Gut and Autoimmune Disease

Dr. Paul Deglmann, DC, DACNB, FACFN practices at Restorative Health Solutions and has 19 years of experience (05/01/2020)
Dr. Paul Deglmann, DC, DACNB, FACFN discusses the unfortunate ties between a Leaky Gut and Autoimmune Disease...   Q: I don't have a Gut Issue, but I have an Autoimmune Problem. Should I still be coming to you? Because it sounds like a lot of work you do would be able to help me too...? Yeah so again, going back to that theory, like where does autoimmune start? It starts with leaky gut and then the gut wall becomes permeable and then things get into the bloodstream that aren't supposed to be there and the immune system reacts, and it gets you confused with a foreign invader …

The Gut-Brain Connection

Dr. Paul Deglmann, DC, DACNB, FACFN practices at Restorative Health Solutions and has 19 years of experience (05/11/2020)
To maintain a healthy brain, we need a healthy gut, and to maintain a healthy gut, we need a healthy brain! Q: From a functional medicine perspective, there is big emphasis on the gut-brain connection, and I'm wondering, where do you begin that conversation with your patients when they first come to you? Yeah, it's challenging, right, because people come in with a gut problem and they're like, “I'm not coming in for my brain. Why are you looking at my brain?”  Well the last 10 years, probably the biggest area of research is the gut-brain access or the brain-gut access.  Whatever you look at; …

Bartonella (Cat Scratch Fever) Transmission and Testing Options

Dr. Kyle Warren, DC, CFMP practices at Restorative Health Solutions and has 13 years of experience (05/12/2020)
Why is it so hard to identify Bartonella in our system? "Now unfortunately, testing is not great for Bartonella. This is the one co-infection I always test a minimum of two times. So I will test you once and then, if you're still, when we're doing re-tests maybe a couple of months later, we're going to check Bartonella again even if you were negative because we do have some problems with it being very, very hard for your immune system to identify. One reason why it's really hard for your immune system to grab onto it is it is an “intracellular bacteria,” …

Bartonella (Cat Scratch Fever): Mysterious and More Common Than You Think

Dr. Kyle Warren, DC, CFMP practices at Restorative Health Solutions and has 13 years of experience (05/12/2020)
Dr. Kyle Warren: Bartonella is maybe the most mysterious of what people call the Lyme co-infections, and it's probably the most mysterious because it's also more than a co-infection. Bartonella can be a co-infection with Lyme but also a stand-alone infection. Bartonella actually gets into the veterinary world because it's carried by mammals; it's classically known as cat scratch fever, so cats are known to be the reservoir. And so, basically, it can be transmitted by flea, by lice from cats, and then to humans. Now while that's the famous way it's transmitted, we also know almost all mammals can be carriers. We've even …

Recover from Acute or Chronic Lyme disease or Bartonella

Dr. Kyle Warren, DC, CFMP practices at Restorative Health Solutions and has 13 years of experience (06/10/2020)
"We get into this with Lyme disease also, is that, you know, theoretically think, people think, well I have a, I have a bacteria, I should take an antibiotic and I'll be all better. There is some truth to this. We think antibiotics are part of many people's regiments. Now you can also use, you know, herbals or other things that have antimicrobial activity, but we do run into this problem really head-on with Bartonella that I think is also the main problem with Lyme disease, which is, once you have a chronic infection, antibiotics are really not enough to, …
