Episode 3: Functional neurology — teaching us to listen to our bodies
I am so grateful and excited to introduce you someone who has been such an important part of my healing process — the amazing human being and functional neurologist, Dr. Karla Mehlenbacher!
Karla walks us through how she treats the many, many people she sees suffering from anxiety, stress, fatigue, burnout, and other nervous system disorders including…
- her personal health journey that changed her career path from pediatrics to neurology
- what functional medicine is and how it differs and works in tandem with western medicine
- what kinds of symptoms and treatments she provides as a functional neurologist
I learned SO much about how to listen to my body, recognize what it needs, and have simple tools on hand to help myself because of Karla and her team at Alive + Well. Making the time to learn and use these practices has made a huge difference in keeping my energy balanced, my brain functioning, and my body feeling strong and healthy.
Hope you enjoy!
