OUR SPECIALTIES
Thyroid and Adrenal Health
Take a comprehensive approach to your thyroid and adrenal health to restore your energy and metabolism.
An estimated 20 million Americans have some form of thyroid disease.
If you’ve been diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, hyper- or hypothyroidism, or any ailment of the thyroid, your doctor may be missing the big picture.
Even if you haven’t been diagnosed, you may be experiencing some (or all) of the following symptoms:
Fatigue
Puffy Face
Unexplained Weight Gain
Hoarse Voice
Mental Fog
Muscle Aches
Depression
Swelling in Your Joints
Thinning Hair
Brittle Fingernails and Hair
Pale, Dry Skin
Increased Sensitivity to Cold
If that’s the case, you may need to optimize your thyroid.
At Valley Vital Medicine, we work on helping you optimize your thyroid, as well as the factors that may have contributed to it becoming imbalanced in the first place, using the principles of Functional Medicine.
The Thyroid Adrenal connection
When it comes to thyroid, it is intimately intertwined with cortisol balance and your adrenal glands.
Your adrenal function plays a huge role in the effectiveness of your thyroid hormones. It is important to determine if adrenal stress is an underlying cause of your thyroid dysfunction, so we can treat them side by side.
At Valley Total Medicine, we assess your adrenals and the hypothalamus – Pituitary – Adrenal Axis (HPA) for proper function. All test results are interpreted relative to patient-specific factors. In other words, we treat the patient, not the lab tests.
