Helping you build resilience one bite, breath and step at a time

Welcome To The Integrative Autoimmune Membership & The Jumpstart Starter Program!

--

We help women with rheumatic and neuromuscular disease improve pain & fatigue so you can break the cycle of inflammation and step back into control of your health

Autoimmune disease is a growing epidemic, impacting millions of women and their families. It's time to stop the cycle for yourself and those you care for.

 

Autoimmune disease develops over years due to nutrition, stress, lifestyle and environmental imbalances that lead to chronic inflammation and poor cellular health. This combined storm sets the stage for disease expression and progression.

Recovery requires whole-body support and intentional steps to address and correct the multiple reasons why your disease developed in the first place and why YOUR body continues to flare.

Working with your doctor is critical, AND only one part of the steps you need to take to get your disease activity under control and your life back to where it belongs.

Nutrition. Daily Habits. Digestion. Stress. Environment.

ALL doctors agree these are the root causes and reasons for chronic inflammation, disease activity and debilitating symptoms that dictate daily decisions and quality of life.

This means it's up to YOU to take action on the factors influencing your body, for the better.

"To grow I need coaching. How can I help myself without the wisdom of those smarter than me? Perfection gets in the way of healing for me. If I can't do it well, I just don't at all.  When I learned about this, I had to join. I feel blessed and I look forward to trying new things. I have already learned so much."

Julie S, Autoimmune Thyroiditis

 

"It was the first program I've found that didn't cost thousands of dollars and wasn't selling their own line of supplements. The fact that the three of you would do this to help people and make it affordable meant the world to me."

Lucy, Lichen Planus

 

 

This is why we created ...

The Integrative Autoimmune Membership & Our Introductory Jumpstart Program!

 

We are the most comprehensive,  affordable online monthly membership for women who are ready for proven, professionally-led steps to correct the reasons for chronic inflammation,  fatigue, painful joints and muscles, and poor metabolic health.

Your support team includes several autoimmune specialists with five autoimmune diseases among us (rheumatic disease, MS, Hashimoto's, IBD, psoriasis).

We understand the demands you have at home, work and in the community.  

Making yourself a priority isn't always easy AND it is always worth it. This is why we have a specific process to support you.

"You have made such a positive impact on my life that I will be forever grateful for! I just made it through a holiday season without a flare! It's the first New Year I am going into feeling like myself!"

Jenn, RA, TV awards show producer 

 

"Got labs back today and things are better than ever! I'm sure a big part of this is because I've been following all of your brilliant guidance ... Thyroid is better than it's bee in a year and kidneys are happier probably because of all the hydration, good iron and B12!"

Samantha, Gvt Employee, Hashimoto's

 

STEP #1

Start With Your 14-Day Free Trial Program!

 

The purpose of the Jumpstart free trial program is to help you take the guesswork out of your next steps ...  and get you doing them!

You've probably done a bunch of research and testing, tried diets on your own (or with other professionals) and aren't sure where to go from here.  We help you decide and start you on the EXACT proven steps we use with private clients and all members.

You'll use your two weeks to get started on either:

  • Integrative Nutrition to flood your body with the nutrition it needs to help reduce inflammation, pain and fatigue, while promoting digestion
  • OR Integrative Lifestyle support, including somatic techniques to ease sore joints, muscles and fatigue

You can expect education and practical tools from vetted experts, invitations to group coaching AND  a private 15-minute call for professional feedback, so you receive personalized care from Day One.

We offer this 14-day program at no cost so you can experience our methods for yourself with no pressure or obligation to stay on as a monthly member.

If you're on the fence, simply  give it a try. It may be exactly what you're missing and the perfect complement to your current plan.

Too good to be true?

A personal note ...

In 2021, our communities and clients told us (loud and clear) they want affordable, monthly guidance & support with vetted professionals.

They are busy, want to keep working and being productive in the community, and want to reduce their risks for metabolic disease + additional diagnoses ... something that is common with autoimmune, that no one talks about until it's too late.

So in 2022, we created what they asked for and quite frankly, there isn’t anything like this for autoimmune with this level of expertise, personalization and support, which is why a growing body of doctors & health professionals recommend our membership to their patients and clients.

It is our personal mission to remove the physical, emotional and financial strains of autoimmune, so you feel empowered in your health and your ability to work with your body, no matter what life throws at you.

We are committed to supporting YOU ... the person ... Which is why we offer The Jumpstart free trial and our "cancel anytime" policy.

So, if you're ready to make yourself a priority and are open to sharing your story with us, we invite you to join our community. It is our honour to support you.
