Improve Your Life

A Place of Healing, Calm, and Wellness.

At WholeHealth Chicago, we have a very rich toolbox of Integrative, Functional and Alternative Medicine. This means for each patient our practitioners rely on the best evidence-based medicine and individualize a treatment plan–what we call a healing path.

The patient and provider work together to develop a diagnostic and therapeutic program that makes sense for the individual. It combines the discipline of modern science with the wisdom of ancient healing.

We truly want you better, and the best thing we can hear from a patient is somebody coming in and saying the phrase, “I’m feeling better! I’m finally feeling better”.

MMR & Shingles Vaccines
MEASLES AND SHINGLES VACCINATIONS: IMPORTANT STUFF

Last month, our occasionally misguided Director of Health and Human Services stated something factually incorrect, namely that immunity from MMR (measles-mumps-rubella) vaccine wanes at 4.5% a year (it does not) and that “older people are essentially unvaccinated.” They are not. “Older people” (whatever that means) are usually very well protected from measles.  If a person […]

Leaky Brain
IS A ‘LEAKY BRAIN’ THE CAUSE OF YOUR ‘BRAIN FOG’?

If you’ve been troubled by any of the symptoms listed below and your doctor(s), including your neurologist, has told you, “We can’t find anything wrong,” you probably should get tested for ‘leaky brain’ syndrome’ (LBS). It’s the same mechanism behind the familiar ‘leaky gut’ (a/k/a intestinal hyperpermeability) which took conventional physicians decades to accept as […]

Male menopause
MALE MENOPAUSE: IS IT REAL?

Definitely. Last week, wrote how actor Naomi Watts experienced menopause symptoms earlier than she ever dreamed possible, her mid thirties. For men, testosterone levels start drifting downward in this decade as well. Most men don’t notice anything, others do feel something is “off”. “My energy is not the same.” “Don’t have interest in sex like […]

Naomi Watts
ACTOR NAOMI WATTS, SURPRISED BY MENOPAUSE, WRITES A GOOD BOOK ABOUT IT

“Dare I Say It”, is subtitled, “Everything I Wish I’d Known About Menopause”. Being female has never been a walk in the park for Ms. Watts. She was last in her class to have her first period at eighteen, needed the guidance of Cosmopolitan Magazine and Sidney Sheldon novels (anyone remember those?) to learn the […]
