Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) is a disease characterized by profound fatigue, sleep abnormalities, pain, and other symptoms that are made worse by exertion. Chronic fatigue syndrome occurs more commonly in women. The cause of this condition is still relatively unknown but may include environmental or genetic factors. The main symptom is fatigue for extended periods of time. The fatigue often worsens with activity, but doesn’t improve with rest.
We recommend a treatment plan tailored to your needs and concerns, with the caveat that progress while living with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome CFS is slow work, but very rewarding.
We believe in the functional medicine approach, and we try to heal your body as a whole, not concentrating on just one area.
Treatments include:
- An anti-inflammatory diet, specific to you and your needs to help alleviate your aches and pains.
- Investigate the possibility of allergies, or an additional undiagnosed autoimmune disease.
- Integrative therapies such as acupuncture and nutritional therapy.
These treatments are intended as a long-term solution to reduce your symptoms and help you lead a more functional life.
