Environmental Illness
Environmental health is based on the premise that what we eat or are exposed to in our environment has a direct effect on our health. We examine the impact of air pollutants, pesticides, heavy metals,
toxins, mold illness, past travels, and other environmental factors affecting your health as an individual.
At Monarch Integrative Health we will assess:
- Appraise the emerging research links between environmental toxins and the documented rise of
chronic illness - Identify the primary categories of chemical toxins present in the environment and interpret
their mechanism of action on your health. Recognize and identify a range of toxins that cause
endocrine disruption - Educate our clients on how to reduce unnecessary environmental toxin exposures
- Teach clients how to lower their toxic burden
- Assess Mycotoxins: The Center for Disease Control has recently released onto its website important documentations supporting that Mycotoxins are the main disease-causing factor for
people exposed to fungus and mold.
Symptoms of Mold Illness:
Breathing disorders, nose bleeds, ear infections, chronic sinusitis, chronic bronchitis, pain in muscles and joints, asthma, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, neurological disorders, nervous disorders, heart palpitations, blurred vision, swollen glands, weight loss, weight gain, chronic fatigue, loss of appetite, fungal lesions, open sores, sexual dysfunctions, thyroid disorders.
Our provider has been trained by Dr Shoemaker https://www.survivingmold.com/ International Society for Environmental Acquires Illness https://iseai.org/. At MIH we are training to understand your exposures and how this might be related to your body’s immune system.
Franca is extremely attentive and looks at the whole picture. She is full of knowledge and experience, as well as wisdom. She explains everything in a way that I can understand and provides me with a specific written treatment plan. She also orders specific supplements and provides them at a very reasonable price. I’ve been searching for a few years for a Functional Medicine provider who is thorough and also compassionate, and I am very grateful to have found Franca.
Franca cares about YOU. She interviews you until she finds out what is wrong. This may take several hours but she wants to get to the bottom of what your complaint is. She is knowledgeable in many areas including hormones, homeopathy, drugs, accupuncture and nutrition. I suffered with a problem for 18 months begging my medical doctors to find the cause. They kept blowing me off. Franca spent 2 1/2 hours with me and with her recommendations I was healed of that problem in 5 days! Doctors treat the symtoms, Franca treats the person!!!
It is refreshing to have a health practitioner that talks to you and not at you. I’ve been working with Franca for a while now. She’s very knowledgeable, thorough and continues to look for answers when needed.
I have also recently been treated by Bre Harrison an acupuncturist and massage therapist for an ongoing tendon/knee issue. After her treatment my knee felt better than it had in 3 months. I would highly recommend her services as well.
