Say No To Leaks: EMSELLA Treatments 🍃

Let’s talk about something many people experience…but few people talk about: urinary incontinence. ✨

If you’ve ever leaked a little when you laugh, cough, sneeze, or exercise…you’re not alone. Millions of women experience bladder leaks, especially after pregnancy, with aging, or due to pelvic floor weakness. 🤰

The good news? Support is available, and it’s simpler than you might think. EMSELLA™ is now available at Vive Integrative Health Group, and we are officially booking appointments. EMSELLA uses advanced HIFEM technology to stimulate the pelvic floor muscles, delivering the equivalent of thousands of Kegel contractions in a single 28-minute session. The treatment helps restore neuromuscular control and strengthen the pelvic floor, a key factor in reducing urinary incontinence. 💪

What makes it unique?

✔ Non-invasive
✔ Fully clothed treatment
✔ No downtime
✔ Just sit comfortably for 28 minutes

Clinical studies have shown:

✨ 95% of patients reported improved quality of life
✨ 67% reduced or eliminated pad use after treatment

Whether leaks happen when you sneeze, run, jump, or simply go about your day, pelvic floor weakness is common…but it doesn’t have to be something you just live with. EMSELLA can help restore strength, support, and confidence. 🙌

Long Covid Awareness Day 🍃

Six years ago, on March 11, 2020, COVID-19 was officially declared a global pandemic. While many people recovered from the initial infection, others continue to experience lingering symptoms that affect their daily lives. If you’ve felt “off” since having COVID-19, you’re not alone. 😷

Long COVID can involve persistent symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, headaches, shortness of breath, exercise intolerance, sleep disturbances, and ongoing inflammation. Research is still evolving, but emerging evidence suggests it may involve factors like immune dysregulation, mitochondrial dysfunction, autonomic nervous system imbalance, microvascular changes, and in some cases lingering viral fragments that continue to stimulate inflammation in the body. 🦠

Dr. Shelby Garn, ND, explains that one way to think about Long COVID is like a smoke alarm that became overly sensitive after a fire. Even though the fire is out, the alarm system stays on high alert…reacting to even the smallest triggers. 🔥

At Vive Integrative Health Group, our Naturopathic approach focuses on identifying the underlying drivers of symptoms and supporting the body’s recovery. This may include reducing inflammation, supporting cellular energy production, regulating the nervous system, and improving circulation and detoxification pathways. Long COVID is complex, but recovery is possible with the right support and a comprehensive approach to healing. 🙏

“You have PCOS.” But what if it’s actually perimenopause? 🍃

PCOS and perimenopause are often confused, but they’re not the same thing. And when we mix them up, women may miss the care they actually need. 🩺

PCOS is typically driven by androgen excess and metabolic dysfunction. Perimenopause usually begins in the late 30s to 40s and is connected to ovarian aging and shifting hormone patterns. Different biology, lab markers and treatment approaches. ✨

Yet many women in their 40s are being told they suddenly have “new PCOS” when what they’re actually experiencing may be perimenopause. Not every irregular cycle is PCOS. Not every hormone concern requires extensive testing or a long list of supplements. 💊

What matters most is a thoughtful, individualized assessment so women receive the support that truly matches what their body is going through. Women deserve clear answers, accurate diagnoses, and care that’s grounded in both science and experience. 📋

If you’re experiencing hormone changes, irregular cycles, or symptoms that don’t quite add up, Dr. Kate Hadfield is here to help. Connect with us today:

Low-Dose Immunotherapy 🍃

Could your symptoms be linked to an imbalanced immune response? 💭

Dr. Jennifer Yee shares more about Low-Dose Immunotherapy (LDI) in her newest blog. It’s a gentle, integrative therapy designed to help retrain the immune system when it has become overly reactive to certain triggers such as foods, microbes, or environmental exposures. By restoring immune tolerance, LDI may help reduce chronic inflammation and support improvement in persistent symptoms. 🙏

LDI is commonly used to support individuals experiencing:

✔️ Environmental or food sensitivities
✔️ Immune responses to chronic infections (such as candida, mould exposures, UTIs, or Lyme disease)
✔️ Hormone-related immune responses (including estrogen, progesterone, or testosterone)

These immune reactions can trigger inflammation and lead to symptoms such as: fatigue, brain fog, joint and muscle pain, headaches, sinus congestion, digestive upset, chronic infections, and more. ✨

LDI treatment is fully personalized. After a comprehensive assessment, a customized protocol is created using diluted antigens, most often taken as liquid drops at home. Your dosage is carefully adjusted and monitored to help your immune system build tolerance over time. 💦
