Autoimmune conditions arise when the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks its own healthy cells and tissues, believing them to be foreign invaders. This can lead to the development of various autoimmune disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, multiple sclerosis, Graves’ disease, Hashimoto’s, psoriasis and Type 1 diabetes.

Autoimmune conditions can be treated using a combination of both traditional and complementary medicine. An integrative treatment approach may include traditional medications as well as complementary therapies and lifestyle changes to a patient’s nutrition and diet, exercise and activity level, stress and sleep management. These can play a crucial role in managing the symptoms of autoimmune conditions. By working with our medical and allied healthcare practitioners, patients will receive a personalised treatment plan that takes into account their symptoms, specific condition and lifestyle factors, allowing individuals to manage their condition and improving their overall quality of life.
