The thyroid is a small gland that can cause big problems when it’s not functioning properly. At Unison, we’re able to diagnose and treat thyroid disease using a holistic, medication-free approach – restoring balance, harmony and health to your body.
In most doctors’ offices, thyroid disease is treated exclusively with conventional medicine. For example, if you suffer from hyperthyroidism, your doctor will suggest anti-thyroid medication, surgery or radioactive iodide treatment to suppress your body’s ability to overproduce hormones. For hypothyroidism, physicians typically prescribe a synthetic form of the thyroid hormone, which you’ll be required to take for the rest of your life.
All of these conventional treatments are very effective in correcting thyroid issues – but they aren’t for everyone. In these cases, Dr. Jacobs may recommend alternative therapies that may be just as effective as traditional medications in managing your condition. For example, acupuncture, chiropractic treatments and herbal remedies are all known to have a positive impact on thyroid disease. Also, a specialized diet that is rich in iodine, calcium, protein and magnesium can support your thyroid and balance your hormones in profoundly effective ways.
In treating your thyroid disease at Unison, you can be assured that we will work with you to manage your condition. We won’t simply write you a prescription and send you on your way. We’ll figure out why your thyroid gland is unbalanced, and help you fix the underlying issue. We’ll figure out exactly what treatment regimen is most effective for your unique situation, so you can balance your thyroid gland and restore your optimal health – without requiring medication for the rest of your life.
