Living with Thyroid DIS-ease - With Natural Solutions

Have you ever found yourself in a situation so astonishing it left you speechless?

Thyroid imbalances can lead to disruptive hormonal fluctuations and a host of challenging health issues. Personally, I had no idea I could face such health challenges—or understand their origins—until I found myself in the grip of thyroid-related psychosis. Only then did I realize the critical role the thyroid gland plays in overall well-being. As it turns out, there are two primary types of thyroid imbalances:

• Hypothyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland produces too little thyroid hormone, leading to symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, sensitivity to cold, skin issues, and sluggishness.
• Hyperthyroidism is the opposite, involving an overproduction of thyroid hormone, which can cause weight loss, rapid heart rate, anxiety, and sensitivity to heat.

The thyroid gland is responsible for producing hormones—primarily triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4)—that regulate metabolism, growth, and development. These hormones are crucial for energy production, body temperature regulation, and the functioning of organs throughout the body. When issues arise within the thyroid, imbalances can occur, triggering a range of health conditions.

My wake-up call came when I saw my TSH levels: an unbelievable 167, far above the typical reference range of 0.4 to 4. I discovered this during a period of intense illness, when it felt like my world was collapsing around me. As a certified Reiki practitioner who had diligently followed multiple wellness programs, I was stunned by the diagnosis, unprepared for these results and their implications.

The Reality Check and Finding a Path Forward

The reality hit me hard—my doctor told me I’d likely need lifelong medication to support my thyroid function. This was disheartening; I’d hoped to avoid medication as my only solution. Seeking alternatives, I started working with a Naturalistic Doctor (ND) who guided me through various tests to uncover hidden allergies, toxicities, and imbalances that could be contributing to my alarming TSH levels.

The findings were eye-opening. Many foods I consumed regularly were causing allergic reactions, and I was dealing with imbalances that impaired my body’s ability to produce the essential thyroid hormones (T3 and T4). This was where biofeedback entered the picture, changing my understanding of my body and giving me a new pathway to wellness.

How Biofeedback Helped Me Take Control of My Thyroid Health

Biofeedback technology, specifically the Oberon Biofeedback System, allowed me to see how my body responded to various foods, toxins, and stressors, providing valuable insights into the underlying causes of my thyroid imbalance. With the help of Oberon’s non-invasive, frequency-based assessments, I identified several key areas of concern, from specific food intolerances to imbalances in my hormonal pathways.

Through biofeedback therapy, I received a clear picture of how my body was functioning. The biofeedback scans allowed me to observe subtle physiological responses, providing real-time insights that traditional testing alone couldn’t reveal. With this information, my ND helped me create a wellness plan that was both holistic and actionable.

Here’s how biofeedback contributed to my progress:

• Identifying Triggers: Biofeedback revealed specific foods and environmental factors that were triggering inflammatory responses, making it easier to adjust my diet and daily routines.
• Balancing Hormonal Pathways: By addressing hormonal imbalances through biofeedback-guided frequency therapy, I was able to support my thyroid’s natural function and restore balance.
• Reducing Reliance on Medication: With biofeedback insights guiding my diet and lifestyle, I found that my thyroid levels began to improve naturally, reducing my dependency on medication.

The Healing Journey: Combining Natural Supplements and Lifestyle Changes

Alongside biofeedback therapy, I began integrating a combination of natural supplements, dietary changes, and targeted frequency therapy. This combination not only improved my energy levels and mood but also helped my thyroid levels stabilize. Within just a few months, my TSH levels dropped from 167 to 14—a significant improvement I had once thought impossible.

In addition to biofeedback, here are some key changes that supported my recovery:

• Dietary Adjustments: Biofeedback helped me identify and eliminate foods that were causing stress to my thyroid. Replacing these with nutrient-dense options gave my body the support it needed to heal.
• Natural Supplements: Specific supplements helped bridge nutrient gaps and supported thyroid function. These included antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals recommended by my ND based on biofeedback results.
• Frequency Remedy Therapy: This non-invasive therapy sent corrective frequencies to the body, helping address imbalances and supporting my body’s natural healing pathways.

Empowered by Knowledge

I am passionate about sharing these insights with others facing similar struggles. Knowledge is power, and understanding your body’s unique responses through tools like biofeedback can open new pathways to healing. I’ve included links to the supplements and products that were crucial in my progress, and I’ll continue to share more resources on managing thyroid health naturally. My goal is to empower others with knowledge, helping them influence their own symptoms and achieve a healthier, more balanced life.
