A Neuroscience Approach to the Diagnosis & Treatment of Chronic Pain,
Medically Unexplained Symptoms,
& Functional Somatic Disorders.
Do your symptoms vary in intensity or location without obvious physical changes, or have they spread over time?
Are your symptoms triggered by non-structural factors like stress, weather, certain foods, strong lights/smells, your period, or even thinking about the symptoms?
Have you ever been diagnosed with or wondered if you had one of the following…
Chronic Back, Neck & Joint Pain
Fibromyalgia
Pelvic Floor Disorders
Chronic Headaches
TMJ Syndrome
Unexplained Intolerances
Chronic Fatigue
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Anxiety/Depression
Painful Bladder Symptoms (IC)
Repetitive Strain Injuries
Insomnia
*Long-COVID, Chronic Lyme, EDS, Leaky Gut, MCAS, Mold Toxicity*
If your treatments just aren't working, or you've had diagnostic testing and received only vague answers or clinicians "can't find anything wrong...",
take this brief quiz to see if your symptoms are
neuroplastic and would benefit from Insight Medicine:
Insight Medical Consultation
Many conditions do not improve due to misunderstanding their causes and neglecting the effects of stress & emotions in the brain.
When diagnosing neuroplastic changes as a cause of symptoms, it is vital to first rule OUT structural/pathological conditions, prior to then ruling IN mindbody factors.
Taking into account a whole person in the context of their whole life experience begins the process of clarifying these root causes.
This is the foundation of Insight Medicine – taking the time necessary to listen & understand, creating a safe and effective place in which to begin recovery. CIM does this by utilizing:

Encouraging Words From Patients Who've Done the Work
"For each illness that doctors cure w/ medicine, they provoke ten in healthy people by inoculating them with the virus that is a thousand times more powerful than any microbe:
the idea that one is ill."
~ Marcel Proust
