If you’re living with colitis, you already know the cycle: a stretch of feeling almost normal, then the familiar signs that another flare is building. Our goal is to help interrupt that cycle by strengthening the systems that determine how well

The urgency, the cramping, the exhaustion of flare after flare — over time, it can make even ordinary days feel like something to get through rather than enjoy. If you’re living with colitis, you already know the cycle: a stretch of feeling almost normal, then the familiar signs that another flare is building. Our goal is to help interrupt that cycle by strengthening the systems that determine how well your colon can calm, repair, and defend itself.

A Lining That’s Lost Its Protection

Here’s a way to picture what’s happening: the inside of a healthy colon is covered by a smooth protective layer, like a well-sealed surface that lets everything pass over it without harm. With colitis, chronic inflammation wears that protective layer down until the tissue underneath is raw and exposed — a little like a sunburn on the inside. And just as sunburned skin stings at the lightest touch, an inflamed colon overreacts to things that should be completely ordinary: normal foods, normal digestion, normal daily stress.

The real question is why the inflammation keeps coming back faster than the lining can repair itself. For most people it’s not one cause but several working together — an immune system that’s lost its off switch, imbalanced gut bacteria, food triggers, depleted nutrients, and a nervous system that’s been running in survival mode for years. When we address those layers one by one, the lining finally gets the chance to heal that it’s been waiting for.

Where Your Care Begins

Your care starts with a thorough, unhurried assessment of your full story — your flare patterns, health history, diet, stress load, sleep, and how your nervous system is balancing “go mode” and “rest mode.” If you’re already working with other providers, we’re glad to serve as a complement to that care; our focus is on building up the foundation your body heals from.

Your personalized plan may include:

• Targeted nutrition strategies — finding the foods that soothe rather than provoke, and rebuilding the nutrients that years of inflammation have drained
• Repairing the gut lining — giving that raw, worn-down protective layer the specific support it needs to reseal and strengthen
• Rebalancing gut bacteria — a healthy microbial community helps calm the immune response right at the surface of the colon, where colitis does its damage
• Calming inflammation naturally — personalized supplementation aimed at quieting the fire at its source
• Vagus nerve support — activating the body’s own built-in anti-inflammatory pathway, so your system can shift from defense to repair
• Frequency-Specific Microcurrent (FSM) and PEMF therapy — gentle bioelectric therapies that support the cellular energy tissue needs to rebuild
• QNRT and nervous-system retraining — releasing the stored stress patterns that keep the body braced for a threat that never ends

Why Stress Keeps Showing Up in Your Gut

Many people with colitis notice that flares arrive on the heels of stressful chapters — a demanding season at work, a loss, a period of poor sleep. That’s not coincidence. The colon listens to the nervous system constantly, and a body stuck in fight-or-flight diverts its resources away from healing exactly when the gut needs them most. Teaching your nervous system that it’s safe to stand down is one of the most overlooked — and most powerful — pieces of calming colitis from the inside.

Our Goal for You

Fewer flares, calmer digestion, steadier energy, and a world that gets bigger again instead of smaller. Colitis can make you feel like your body is working against you, but underneath the inflammation, its drive to heal is still there — it just needs the interference cleared and the right support.

If you’re ready for a more complete, root-cause approach to supporting your body with colitis, we’re here for you every step of the way.

We understand that a healthy gut is the foundation of overall wellness.

Leaky gut, or intestinal permeability, occurs when the protective lining of your digestive tract becomes damaged. This allows harmful substances like toxins, bacteria, and undigested food particles to pass into your bloodstream, triggering widespread inflammation and immune system imbalances. Left untreated, leaky gut can contribute to a variety of chronic health issues.

Leaky gut doesn’t just affect digestion. It can lead to conditions such as autoimmune diseases, chronic fatigue, hormonal imbalances, skin issues like eczema or acne, migraines, joint pain, and even mood disorders like anxiety and depression. These seemingly unrelated symptoms often trace back to an impaired gut barrier. That’s why addressing the health of your gut is crucial for long-term wellness.

Our approach to healing leaky gut focuses on restoring balance and repairing the intestinal lining naturally. We begin by identifying and addressing the factors contributing to your gut damage, such as poor diet, chronic stress, infections, overuse of medications, or exposure to environmental toxins. By taking a comprehensive look at your health, we create a customized plan tailored to your unique needs.

The foundation of our protocol includes removing irritants and inflammatory foods that may be damaging your gut lining. We then restore gut health with a combination of personalized nutrition plans, high-quality supplements, probiotics, and digestive enzymes designed to repair the gut lining and improve overall function.

Additionally, we utilize therapies that support your body’s bioelectric systems, optimizing cellular repair and reducing inflammation. These therapies promote faster healing and help address the systemic effects of leaky gut.

Unlike conventional treatments that only address symptoms, our approach targets the factors contributing to leaky gut. We also guide you on sustainable lifestyle changes, including stress management, improved sleep, and mindful eating, to maintain gut health over time.

If you’re experiencing bloating, fatigue, food sensitivities, or other signs of leaky gut—or dealing with conditions it can contribute to—there’s a path to healing. Schedule an assessment today to discover how our integrative approach can help you repair your gut and restore your vitality.

Don’t let shoulder pain limit your life. Discover how our integrative therapies can help you move freely, reduce discomfort, and restore strength to your shoulders.

At Functional Medicine Center of Minnesota, we take a unique and integrative approach to helping patients overcome shoulder pain, whether it stems from injury, overuse, inflammation, or chronic degeneration. Shoulder pain can limit your ability to perform even simple daily tasks, but with the right therapies, we can help restore mobility, reduce pain, increase strength and get you back to living life fully.

Shoulder pain often involves more than just muscles and joints. It can result from neurological dysfunction, scar tissue, or poor communication between the brain, nerves, and muscles. Our approach combines advanced therapies like Quantum Neurology® and Myoneurotherapy to address both the structural and neurological components of shoulder pain.

Quantum Neurology® focuses on restoring proper nerve function by improving communication between the nervous system and the body. When nerves are compromised—whether due to injury, inflammation, or stress—they can’t effectively signal the muscles and tissues to move or heal properly. By using gentle neurological rehabilitation techniques, we stimulate and restore optimal nerve function, helping to reduce pain, improve movement, and accelerate healing.

We also utilize Myoneurotherapy, a powerful technique that combines muscle activation with neurological stimulation to reset muscle function. Shoulder pain often causes compensatory patterns in surrounding muscles, leading to weakness, stiffness, and instability. Myoneurotherapy quickly restores strength and balance, improving range of motion and reducing unnecessary strain on the shoulder joint.

In addition, we address scar tissue from past injuries or surgeries, which can restrict movement, block proper nerve signals, and contribute to chronic pain. Through scar remediation techniques, we release adhesions and improve tissue mobility to help restore the shoulder’s full function.

Our approach also incorporates targeted chiropractic adjustments, personalized exercises, and bioelectric therapies to support cellular repair, reduce inflammation, and optimize healing. We identify and address underlying imbalances—such as postural issues, repetitive strain, or systemic inflammation—that may be contributing to shoulder pain.

Unlike conventional treatments that focus solely on pain relief, our approach is designed to restore proper function at both the neurological and structural levels. We work to resolve the causes of your shoulder pain while equipping you with tools to maintain strength, stability, and long-term results.

We understand that acne isn’t just a skin issue—it’s a reflection of what’s happening inside your body.

We understand that acne isn’t just a skin issue—it’s a reflection of what’s happening inside your body. Breakouts often stem from imbalances in digestion, impaired detoxification, and immune responses. By supporting your body’s natural ability to heal, we help restore clear, healthy skin from the inside out.

Your skin relies on efficient cellular energy to regenerate, eliminate waste, and reduce inflammation. When digestion and detox pathways are stressed, skin function suffers. Here’s how internal imbalances can lead to acne:

• Leaky Gut & Food Sensitivities – When the gut lining becomes too permeable, undigested food particles and toxins enter the bloodstream, triggering immune reactions that lead to systemic inflammation, including inflamed skin. Certain food sensitivities can also create an ongoing cycle of irritation and acne breakouts.
• Impaired Liver Function – Your liver is responsible for clearing excess hormones and toxins. If it’s overburdened, these substances can recirculate in the body, contributing to clogged pores, excess oil production, and persistent acne.
• Blood Sugar & Diet – Diets high in processed foods, sugar, and inflammatory oils can spike insulin levels, increasing oil production and feeding acne-causing bacteria. Nutrient deficiencies can also slow skin repair and worsen breakouts.

Rather than masking symptoms, we focus on restoring your body’s ability to process nutrients, detoxify effectively, and reduce inflammation. Using bioelectric support, personalized nutrition, and targeted therapies, we help you rebalance the systems that most influence skin health.

If you’re ready to stop chasing temporary solutions and address acne from the inside out, we’re here to help. Let’s get your skin—and your health—back in sync.

Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks its own tissues, often resulting in chronic inflammation and damage.

We view autoimmune disease not just as a condition to be managed but as a signal from your body that something deeper is at play. Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks its own tissues, often resulting in chronic inflammation and damage. While conventional medicine focuses on suppressing these immune responses, functional medicine goes further to uncover the underlying factors driving the imbalance.

Why is your immune system overreacting? What factors have contributed to this imbalance? And most importantly, how can we guide your body back to a state of health and harmony? These are the questions we seek to answer.

Let’s explore how our holistic approach offers hope and healing for those navigating the challenges of autoimmune conditions.

A Systems Approach to Autoimmunity.

Autoimmune diseases don’t develop in isolation. They’re the result of a complex interplay of genetics, environment, lifestyle, and even emotional health. At our clinic, we take a systems approach, exploring how these elements interact and influence your body’s immune response.

Our approach examines key factors, including diet, stress, toxins, infections, gut health, and the bioelectrical communication that governs cellular function. Your body operates as a highly interconnected system, with electrical signals playing a crucial role in cellular communication. When this signaling is disrupted, it can lead to systemic inflammation and immune dysregulation.

By addressing these disruptions, we aim to restore balance to your immune system and support your body’s innate healing capabilities.

The Gut-Immune Connection.

One of the most critical contributors to autoimmune disease is the health of your gut. Often called your “second brain,” the gut plays a vital role in regulating the immune system. A common trigger for autoimmune conditions is “leaky gut syndrome,” a condition where the intestinal lining becomes compromised.

When the gut barrier is damaged—whether from poor diet, chronic stress, medications, or infections—it allows toxins, undigested food particles, and bacteria to enter the bloodstream. This can trigger a persistent immune response, laying the foundation for autoimmune disease.

Our approach focuses on repairing and nourishing the gut lining through personalized dietary protocols, targeted nutrients, and anti-inflammatory strategies. A healthy gut not only reduces inflammation but also supports a calmer, more balanced immune system.

The Hidden Impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences.

Research reveals a compelling link between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and the development of autoimmune diseases later in life.

Trauma during childhood—whether from abuse, neglect, or chronic stress such as having an alcoholic parent—can leave a lasting imprint on your body. These experiences often lead to a hyperactive stress response, which keeps the body in a state of chronic inflammation. Over time, this heightened inflammatory state disrupts immune regulation, increasing susceptibility to autoimmune conditions.

At our clinic, we understand that healing must go beyond the physical. We incorporate therapies and techniques to release stored trauma and mitigate stress response to address the emotional and neurological impacts of early trauma. By helping you regulate the stress response of your nervous system, we aim to reduce inflammation and create a more supportive environment for healing.

Cellular Healing: The Key to Lasting Recovery.

Autoimmune conditions often originate at the cellular level, where dysfunction in energy production and communication can create a cascade of immune and inflammatory responses. Your mitochondria—the energy factories within your cells—play a pivotal role in maintaining cellular health.

When mitochondria are compromised by toxins, chronic stress, or poor nutrition, cells struggle to function optimally. This inefficiency can exacerbate immune dysfunction and inflammation.

Using advanced techniques that support mitochondrial and bioelectrical health, we help restore cellular energy production and communication. This cellular-first approach addresses the root causes of dysfunction, promoting faster and more sustainable healing.

Healing Is Possible.

Autoimmune disease can feel overwhelming, but it’s important to know that healing is not only possible but also achievable with the right support. At Functional Medicine Center of Minnesota, we blend cutting-edge science with compassionate care to uncover and address the unique factors contributing to your condition.

Whether it’s repairing your gut, calming chronic inflammation, or addressing the emotional wounds of the past, our personalized strategies are designed to empower your body’s natural ability to heal.

If you’re ready to take control of your health, contact us today. Together, we can explore the multiple facets of your autoimmune condition and guide you toward a vibrant, healthier future.

Our goal is to provide a clear path forward by uncovering the hidden factors behind illness and supporting your body’s natural ability to heal and thrive

We specialize in helping individuals navigate the challenges of complex chronic illnesses such as Lyme disease, long-haul COVID, electromagnetic sensitivity, POTS, dysautonomia, chronic fatigue syndrome, multiple chemical sensitivities, and PANDAS. These conditions often feel overwhelming and frustrating, especially when conventional approaches fall short. Our goal is to provide a path forward by addressing the root causes of illness and helping your body restore its natural healing potential.

Every cell in your body relies on energy to function, and this energy is produced in tiny structures called mitochondria. These powerhouses of the cell are responsible for converting the food you eat and the oxygen you breathe into energy. However, this process depends on more than just the right nutrients—it requires an intricate balance of bioelectricity and cellular communication.

When cells become inflamed, stressed, or damaged, their ability to produce energy falters. This is where functional medicine shines: instead of only addressing the symptoms of metabolic dysfunction, we focus on restoring your cells’ ability to function at their best. By supporting the bioelectric pathways in your body, we can improve energy production and cellular repair, allowing you to feel more vibrant and healthy.

Metabolic health isn’t just about what you eat or how much you exercise. Emotional trauma and chronic stress also play a significant role in metabolic dysfunction. Stress floods your body with hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, which, over time, can disrupt your blood sugar levels, impair digestion, increase inflammation, and impair your mitochondria’s ability to produce energy efficiently.

Unresolved emotional trauma can have a similar effect. Trauma often gets stored in the body, creating patterns of chronic tension and inflammation that interfere with the nervous system’s ability to regulate metabolism. If this stress response becomes a long-term state, it can set the stage for metabolic diseases like diabetes, thyroid dysfunction, and chronic fatigue.

At our clinic, we understand that healing metabolic health often requires addressing the emotional side of the equation. Our approach includes tools and techniques that help your body release these stored patterns, allowing you to move from a state of survival to one of thriving.

Functional medicine sees your body as an interconnected system, not a collection of isolated parts. This perspective allows us to address the multiple causes of metabolic dysfunction, whether they stem from diet, stress, toxins, chronic infection or unresolved trauma.

Our care starts with understanding your unique story. By looking at your lifestyle, health history, and past physical injuries, we can identify imbalances in areas like:

• Blood sugar regulation: How well your body balances energy intake and use.
• Inflammation levels: Chronic inflammation disrupts metabolism and contributes to disease.
• Hormonal balance: Hormones like insulin and cortisol directly influence your metabolic health.
• Mitochondrial function: Your cells’ ability to produce energy efficiently.

We work to restore the essential systems that drive hormone production and fuel your body’s cellular energy.

We understand how vital your hormones are to your overall health and well-being. Hormones regulate everything from your energy and metabolism to your sleep, mood, and reproductive health. Yet, when this finely tuned system is disrupted, it can leave you feeling tired, foggy, and out of sync—even if your lab values come back “normal.”

That’s where a comprehensive, holistic approach comes in. By looking deeper into the underlying causes of endocrine dysfunction—like stress, gut health, blood sugar imbalances, and more—we help you achieve lasting wellness, not just symptom relief.

Your endocrine system is a network of glands that produce and regulate hormones. These hormones act as chemical messengers, coordinating essential processes in your body. However, several hidden factors can disrupt this balance, including:

• Chronic Stress and Trauma: Persistent stress floods your body with cortisol, the stress hormone, which can suppress thyroid function, throw off sex hormone production, and overburden your adrenal glands. Emotional trauma can amplify this effect, keeping your body stuck in a “fight or flight” state that disrupts your hormonal balance.
• Gut Health: The gut is often called the “second brain” for a good reason. A healthy gut microbiome helps regulate inflammation, detoxify excess hormones, and support the production of key neurotransmitters. Gut imbalances—like dysbiosis or leaky gut—can disrupt these processes, contributing to hormonal symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, or irregular cycles.
• Blood Sugar Dysregulation: Frequent blood sugar spikes and crashes strain your pancreas and impact insulin production. Over time, this can lead to insulin resistance, a condition that disrupts hormone production and communication, especially with sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone.
• “Normal” Lab Results, Persistent Symptoms: Many people experience frustrating symptoms like fatigue, mood swings, or weight gain, only to be told their lab tests are “normal.” Traditional labs often focus on identifying disease, while functional medicine digs deeper, identifying patterns and subtle imbalances that affect how you feel.

We know every patient is unique, and so is the underlying cause of their hormonal issues. That’s why we take a whole-body approach to uncover what’s driving your symptoms, including a deep dive into your health history, organ function, diet, stress levels, and more. We are dedicated to restoring the foundational systems that affect hormone production, as well as cellular energy.

Our comprehensive approach focuses on rebalancing your body from the ground up. Here’s how we help:

• Nutritional Support: We tailor your diet to nourish your endocrine system and stabilize blood sugar levels. By avoiding inflammatory foods and including nutrient-rich options, we can help improve both gut health and hormone production.
• Gut Repair: Supporting your gut microbiome and healing your intestinal lining helps reduce inflammation and ensures your body can detoxify excess hormones effectively.
• Blood Sugar Stabilization: Simple dietary changes, meal timing strategies, and targeted supplementation help regulate blood sugar levels, easing the strain on your hormones and improving energy.
• Stress Reduction and Trauma Processing: Chronic stress is a major disruptor of hormone balance. We incorporate therapies and techniques to calm your nervous system and support your adrenal glands.
• Bioelectric Therapies: Your cells operate like tiny batteries, and they need a steady flow of energy to communicate and perform essential functions. Chronic stress, poor gut health, and blood sugar imbalances drain cellular energy. We use advanced therapies to recharge your cells, improving hormonal communication and supporting faster healing.

We help people of all ages with a wide range of neurological challenges, from mild to complex.

Your brain and nervous system are the command center of your body, shaping how you think, feel, and move every day. When these systems work as they should, you feel sharp, balanced, and in control. But when your neurological health is compromised, it can lead to a wide range of challenges, from mild issues like brain fog and memory trouble to more complex conditions such as peripheral neuropathy or Parkinson’s disease.

At our clinic, we work with individuals experiencing persistent, challenging symptoms that often stem from conditions impacting multiple systems in the body. Our natural, whole-body approach focuses on reducing inflammation, enhancing circulation, and supporting nerve health. We don’t use medications or surgery—instead, we rely on innovative techniques and therapies to help your body heal itself.

Life’s challenges leave lasting impressions on the brain and nervous system. Stress, trauma, and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) can disrupt neurological development and function, leaving the nervous system in a state of imbalance.

Here’s how these factors can affect your neurological health:

• Stress and Trauma: Prolonged stress activates the fight-or-flight response, flooding the body with stress hormones like cortisol. Over time, this can damage parts of the brain involved in memory, learning, and emotional regulation.
• Childhood Experiences: Early trauma, neglect, or chronic stress can wire the brain to operate in survival mode, leading to heightened sensitivity to stress, emotional instability, and difficulty processing information.
• Nervous System Dysregulation: Trauma can trap the nervous system in a constant state of hyper- or hypo-arousal, manifesting as anxiety, depression, fatigue, or dissociation.

These effects often persist well into adulthood, contributing to conditions like brain fog, chronic pain, or emotional challenges. With the right interventions, it’s possible to calm and rebalance the nervous system, allowing for healing and improved function.

The brain and nerves are highly sensitive to environmental toxins and infections. These external factors can disrupt the body’s natural ability to repair and protect itself, leading to inflammation and impaired nerve function.

• Toxin Exposures: Everyday exposure to environmental toxins such as heavy metals, pesticides, and pollutants, as well as things like chemotherapy, can accumulate in the body, contributing to neurological dysfunction. Toxins interfere with nerve signaling, damaged tissues, and lead to oxidative stress, which accelerates cellular damage.
• Infections: Chronic or latent infections can directly impact nerve health and trigger systemic inflammation. Certain infections may target the nervous system, causing symptoms like chronic pain, numbness, or muscle weakness. Addressing these factors is critical for restoring neurological balance and improving overall health.

We focus on restoring the body’s natural ability to repair and thrive by addressing the underlying causes of your symptoms. Here’s how we do it:

• Calming and Rebalancing the Nervous System: Whether due to stress, trauma, or childhood experiences, nervous system dysregulation is often at the root of neurological issues. We use therapies that help calm the system, moving it from a constant state of stress into a healing state.
• Reducing Inflammation and Enhancing Circulation: Chronic inflammation and poor circulation can impair nerve health. Our treatments are designed to reduce inflammation and improve blood flow, ensuring that oxygen and nutrients reach the brain and nerves for optimal repair.
• Addressing Toxins and Infections: Identifying and addressing environmental toxins and infections is key to protecting the nervous system. We use natural methods to support detoxification and strengthen the body’s immune defenses.
• Nutritional and Cellular Support: Proper nutrition fuels your brain and nerves. We work with you to create a personalized nutrition plan to support cellular repair and energy production.
• Natural Bioelectric Optimization: Your cells rely on bioelectric signals to communicate. We use advanced, non-invasive techniques to restore this natural energy flow, improving how your nervous system functions and reducing symptoms like brain fog, pain, and neuropathy.

We help patients with a wide range of neurological issues, including:

• Mild and Common Conditions: Brain fog, mild concussions, and memory issues often result from inflammation or cellular dysfunction. We work to restore clarity and focus.
• Complex Conditions: We see more challenging issues like peripheral neuropathy, stroke recovery, Parkinson’s disease, and conditions that affect multiple systems in the body. These complex cases often involve persistent symptoms such as chronic pain, tingling, and impaired motor function.
• Mood and Stress-Related Disorders: Anxiety, depression, and PTSD can stem from nervous system imbalances. We address these issues with non-invasive, natural methods.

At Functional Medicine Center of Minnesota, we look for hidden factors that contribute to skin issues.

Your skin is more than just a barrier—it’s a reflection of your internal health and well-being. Multiple factors contribute to skin issues such as gut health, toxins, immune function, stress and emotional trauma. By restoring balance within your body, we aim to help you achieve lasting skin health and radiance.

The health of your skin is deeply connected to your gut. Your gut microbiome, a community of trillions of beneficial bacteria, plays a crucial role in regulating digestion, immune function, and inflammation. When the microbiome is disrupted—a condition called dysbiosis—it can lead to systemic inflammation that manifests as breakouts, redness, or other skin concerns. Additionally, a compromised gut lining, often referred to as “leaky gut,” allows toxins to enter the bloodstream, triggering immune responses that contribute to chronic skin conditions.

Nutrient absorption is also affected by gut health. A poorly functioning gut may struggle to deliver essential vitamins and minerals to the skin, limiting its ability to repair and regenerate. Compounding this, toxins, parasites, mold, and viruses can further strain your gut and immune system, creating internal imbalances that appear on your skin.

Stress and emotional trauma can also play a major role in skin health. Chronic stress can inflame the gut, disrupt hormone balance, and weaken the immune system, while unresolved emotional trauma can block the body’s natural healing processes. Together, these factors can worsen skin conditions or slow recovery.

At our clinic, we take a whole-body approach to these challenges. We work to support your body’s cellular energy systems to improve healing, enhance detox pathways to remove harmful toxins, and balance the immune system to reduce inflammation. By identifying and addressing hidden stressors like parasites, mold, and lingering viruses, we help your skin heal from the inside out. Additionally, we utilize therapies to remediate stress and calm your nervous system, as emotional well-being is critical to achieving glowing, healthy skin.
