The FibroFatigue Program
Image a house that is run down, neglected, abandoned. The roof leaks, it’s moldy, the plumbing doesn’t work and the wiry is faulty. No one wants to live there. In order to bring this house back to it’s former glory, we need to have a plan to renovate it. If you go in and replace the carpet without fixing the leaky roof and drafty windows, what’s going to happen? The rain will come in and your brand new carpet will be moldy again in no time. When you renovate a house, you need to have a plan. First you fix the roof and windows to secure the house from the elements, then you go in and get rid of the moldy carpet, then repair the plumbing and wiring. Once the walls are rebuilt, then you can repaint and put in the new carpet.
You need this same kind of plan for renovating your body.
This is the approach our FibroFatigue Program takes in helping you to overcome Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue and Chronic Pain. It is an eight stage program that follows a very specific order so that the changes you make in each stage support the next stage and lead to lasting results. We address the eight separate, but overlapping causes of Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue in a certain order so that each piece can unlock the next. Those eight causes include:
- Immune System Dysregulation
- Gut Dysbiosis
- Cortisol and Nitric Oxide Imbalances
- Prostaglandins Dysregulation and Platelet Adhesion
- Mitochondrial Myopathy
- Venous Insufficiency
- Adrenal Fatigue
- Thyroid Disorders
If these are treated out of order, just like replacing your carpet before fixing the leaky roof, the issues will come right back and you won’t get lasting results.
The first 4 stages are designed to get you out of pain.
Stage 1 – Protecting Your Immune System – Just as we must fix the leaky roof first, we have to balance your immune system before going any further. The characteristic pains of fibromyalgia such as wandering pain and whole body aches like having the flu are undifferentiated immune responses. Your body is inflamed and it doesn’t know what to do. You know you are ready to move on to Stage 2 once this wandering pain is relieved. You may still have other types of pain (stabbing, burning, dull) that we’ll address in the next stages. They are different types of pain and are addressed differently.
- Stage 1 sets a foundation that the next stages build upon. The changes you make over the first four stages will get you out of pain and your energy will begin to be restored.
- Stage 2 – Restoring Your Digestion
- Stage 3 – Healing Your Nerves
- Stage 4 – Improving Your Circulation
Stages 5 – 8 are designed to get you stronger and stronger so that the pain doesn’t come back.
- Stage 5 – Regain Your Energy
- Stage 6 – Nourish Your Cells
- Stage 7 – Recharge Your Adrenals
- Stage 8 – Activate Your Thyroid
In addition to lifestyle enhancements, breathing exercises and self-care practices, you will also use high-quality medicinal herbs in easy to use forms like teas and small pills. These herbs will speed up your progress significantly. We also recommend acupuncture treatments as needed to help your body rebalance.
As you go through this program many facets of your life may change. Be ready! You may get the desire to socialize again. Maybe you thought you were depressed, but it may have been that your immune system was low. As your immune system becomes healthier, you’ll be move comfortable being around others. As your pain subsides, you are able to take your life in your own hands again and enjoy activities that you’ve had to put aside. As you become stronger and realize your personal power, you may see relationships evolve and will be better equipped to handle the drama. Be ready for all of it and take it as a positive sign.
This program isn’t for everyone.
People who tend to self-sabotage and those who want to stay sick for whatever reason won’t do well on this program. They will find all kinds of reasons to sabotage the program and won’t do the exercises as prescribed. But if you want to get better and can envision a life without pain and depression, we’ve made it easy to follow along step-by-step. You’ll start making small changes in your life that will lead to big effects.
Typical results with this program include being pain free within three months and the underlying root cause addressed within nine months. Those who seriously devote themselves to the treatment process may see pain significantly reduced even sooner.
What does health look like to you? How do you envision your life without the pain and depression you may be experiencing now?
