An Integrative Approach to Healing Chronic Illness: Revealing the Root Causes of Modern Disease

By Richard Brightheart, L.Ac., M.Ac.

New Revision (4th Edition)
Includes two new chapters: Lyme Spectrum Illness and Alzheimer’s Disease

An Integrative Approach to Healing Chronic Illness: Revealing the Root Causes of Modern Disease is a one-of-a-kind book, offering major breakthroughs in understanding a multitude of modern-day disease processes and information on how to reverse them.

This book offers information that is years ahead of what most doctors and health care practitioners are offering their patients. These theories and practices have helped thousands of patients reclaim their health through natural methods.

Find answers to the most important question: What’s causing your illness?

If you have been labeled with a certain disease and are looking for answers because you’re uncomfortable with the idea that disease management or symptom control is the only option offered by your healthcare provider, you will benefit from this book.  It offers viable alternatives if you have worked with nontraditional medical practitioners and had limited success overcoming your chronic health challenges. Other ways you will benefit from An Integrative Approach to Healing Chronic Illness: Revealing the Root Causes of Modern Disease include:

  • Packed with documented studies and scientific research along with information from the author’s 25-plus years of clinical experience and education. This vital information is offered in easy-to-understand chapters so that the lay person as well as the health professional can fully understand these root causes. Every illness has a cause that is a reflection of an underlying pattern.
  • Shows how lingering pathogens, chronic infection, allergic sensitivities, environmental toxins and heavy metals are the underlying causes of most illness.
  • Goes beyond simple nutritional and detoxification protocols that are common today in books and literature, which many times fail to address the actual root causes of illness.
  • Reveals how and why our medical system chooses to focus on disease labels with symptomatic protocols that never seem to answer or address the cause.
  • Breaks down these labeled disease processes such as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, Crohn’s disease, depression, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and many others. These causes may at first surprise you, until you discover how much scientific-based research and information as well as clinical data are readily available and thoroughly referenced in this book.

Reclaim Health

After reading the book you’ll have the insight and knowledge to take control of your own health. You’ll finally understand the cause in the area or labeled disease process that you need to understand to make intelligent decisions that best suit your needs. Every person who has questions about any health issue would greatly benefit from An Integrative Approach to Healing Chronic Illness.

This work is profound; there is simply no other way to put it. I encourage anyone considering treatment with you to do so. There’s really nothing to lose and everything to gain, most of all your health and well being. I am grateful to you for the path you have walked in order to become capable, caring and the remarkable healer that you are today.
