Find Thyroid Relief With Functional Medicine
It is estimated that in America, 90% of hypothyroid cases are caused by an auto-immune disorder called Hashimoto’s (We have seen thousands of thyroid cases and we agree with these statistics).
Most of these cases go undiagnosed because mainstream medicine does not treat Hashimoto’s. Since there is no treatment for Hashimoto’s, doctors will often not run antibody testing, leaving many patients diagnosed with simply hypothyroidism.
The problem is that Hashimoto’s is an immune system disorder that leads to hypothyroidism.
Until the immune system is treated, there will be a continuance of fluctuating thyroid symptoms and a constant battle to regulate TSH levels.
The fluctuating thyroid lab ranges are instigated by the immune system, which attacks the thyroid and releases high levels of thyroid hormones into the blood. Immediately following this, the thyroid goes back into a low functioning state.
As a result of these ‘flair-ups,’ lab ranges will drastically fluctuate. Furthermore, depending on when you get your blood work you will see varying TSH and other thyroid hormone levels.
Thyroid Imbalance and functional wellness
Since we utilize functional medicine at The Holistic Wellness Center of the Carolinas as a result we use different lab ranges than mainstream medicine. Functional medicine uses tighter lab ranges to identify disorders. This is important due to the millions of Americans having lab work performed, still suffering from symptoms, but falling between the large ranges used in conventional medicine.
What are the Symptoms of Thyroid Imbalance:
Holistic Wellness Center can help you understand thyroid imbalance symptoms and address the underlying condition behind them.
- Anxiety, nervousness
- fatigue, tiredness
- Weight Fluctuation

- Vision problem
- dry or hoarse hair
