The Sleep Is A Skill Podcast 104: Dr. Torrie Thompson, Functional Medicine Practitioner: Are Parasites Keeping You Up At Night? Here’s How To Tell & What To Do About It
GUEST BIO:
Dr. Torrie Thompson is known around the world as a leading functional medicine practitioner that solves some of the toughest client cases. This passion to help others stems from her own health struggles. For nearly a decade she visited over 20 doctors looking for the cause for her strange symptoms and a solution to help her heal and get her life back. After years of failed traditional medical treatments and several incorrect diagnoses, she finally took her health into her own hands and discovered she had Lyme Disease.
She successfully used holistic medicine approaches that included dietary modifications, supplementation and lifestyle changes to help her finally regain her health. Not only did she get health and her life back, but along the way learned how holistic medicine and modifications to both diet and lifestyle can help reverse and prevent many diseases.
Now, Dr. Torrie specializes in helping people find the root cause of their symptoms that have stumped other practitioners. She has helped find answers for clients with mold sickness, Lyme disease, gut infections, autoimmune diseases, fibromyalgia, depression, anxiety, chronic fatigue, hormone imbalance, infertility and so many more! Dr. Torrie believes that when toxins and infections are removed and mindset is addressed, the body can heal itself.
