Casey Kelley, MD: A Functional Approach to Lyme Disease | The Healing Grove Podcast

This week I would like you to meet Dr. Casey Kelley.Dr. Kelley is the Founder and Medical Director of Case Integrative Health in Chicago, IL. While she was earning her medical degree at Ohio State University, Dr. Kelley became increasingly ill. Her symptoms included extreme fatigue, trouble breathing, dizziness, elevated heart rate, and brain fog. Though doctors assured her that her healthy issues were simply due to stress, she knew there was something else at the root of her health crisis. Eventually, Dr. Kelley was able to get a correct diagnosis for both Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and Lyme Disease. She went through treatment and has now been in remission for more than 15 years. This experience is what drives her passion to help others battling chronic illness, and what led her to found Case Integrative Health in 2019. Today she serves patients of all ages across the country, helping get to the root cause of their disease and transforming their health through Functional Medicine. As one of the first physicians to become Board Certified in both Family Medicine and Integrative Medicine, Dr. Kelley uses a whole-body approach to dig underneath symptoms to uncover what's broken. She has studied the causes, effects, and treatments of Lyme Disease extensively, and lectures nationally on this and other topics.You can learn more about Dr. Casey Kelley and her work at Case Integrative Health here: https://www.caseintegrativehealth.com*****************************************************************************************If you’d like to be the first to hear about new podcast episodes, sign up for our newsletter.

This week, Kerri Rivera is back to continue the conversation about chlorine dioxide, recovering kids from autism, and so much more. I learned about Kerri's work using chlorine dioxide (aka CD, aka MMS) to help children recover from autism in 2012, at which point I decided I needed to know more. After digging into the research, I became convinced of its safety and potential benefit for complex, chronic infections, and I decided to use it on myself. The rest is...well, the rest you can learn about in my ebook, or in this talk! Regardless, I hope you will make time for it this week, since it might just be the tool you were looking for to carry you the rest of the fall, winter, spring, and beyond.Kerri has generously offered to share her Parent Guide for Healing Autism with all of you.

Over the past week I have shared some of what happened to my brain in 2022, during or shortly after an elective surgery on my neck. As I was crafting those emails, I was thinking about how we've never had a guest on the Podcast who'd recovered their brain after such an injury. Given my close work with brain-injured kids and Lymies with brain fog, it dawned on me that hey, we need one! And then it dawned on me that maybe I am that guest. So that's who you're getting this week.  I hope you find this vulnerable sharing helpful, and not off-putting. I do this in the hopes that someone, somewhere, will find it valuable to hear my story. If you have someone you know who is challenged by a brain not functioning optimally, I would be honored if you would share this episode with them. I would love for you to join me for a FREE week in the Healing Grove as we explore brain health.
