I didn’t choose Lyme disease as a focus for my practice. It chose me. I live on the South Shore of Nova Scotia/Mi'kma'ki where we have some of the highest per capita rates of Lyme disease in the world. As a result, I’ve had to get to know this illness very well, and every year, I work with many people dealing with different stages of Lyme infection. Anyone who has experienced it will tell you this is a daunting illness (I have personally had it twice).  And for those that end up with chronic symptoms, it can be truly devastating.

Fortunately, there is much we can do to support people dealing with Lyme (in both the early and later stages), and this is an area where herbal medicine and other integrative therapies really shine. From directly attacking the infection, to relieving symptoms, to strengthening the organs and body systems damaged by the disease, there is so much that herbs have to offer to help us manage an extremely challenging illness.

In this class, you will learn:

• The stages of Lyme disease and how they uniquely impact the body.

• Why Lyme can be devastating to so many body systems and have such a wide array of symptoms.

• How herbs can be of support for prevention, tick bite care, acute infection, and later stage chronic infections.

• Ways to pair herbs with conventional treatments, including my go-to complementary herbal formula for those on antibiotics for Lyme. 

• What Post-Treatment Lyme Disease Syndrome is—and how herbs can help those grappling with lingering term symptoms.

Lyme disease can feel overwhelming, but  by understanding how the disease works and accessing the many tools we have to manage it, we can also build much needed resilience.
