Case Integrative Health

Case Integrative Health Integrative medical care, or Functional Medicine, seeks to understand the "why" underneath symptoms.

Once we know why you are sick, we can begin fixing the problem at the root; unlocking your body's natural ability to heal itself.

Microplastics…in your arteries?

A 2024 study published in the New England Journal of Medicine found microplastics embedded in the arterial plaque of patients with cardiovascular disease, and those who had them were 4.5x more likely to have a heart attack, stroke, or die over the next 3 years…

Now, this doesn’t prove microplastics cause heart disease — but it raises some really important questions about what we’re being exposed to every day!

At Case Integrative Health, we believe in looking at the whole picture of your health — including these environmental factors that aren’t always talked about!

Allergy season is here and some of us are really feeling it!

If you’ve tried the medications, the herbs, and you’re still struggling — mast cell support might be the missing piece. These are the cells that release histamine, and when they’re overreactive, symptoms are hard to manage no matter what you take..

That’s why we have an IV specifically for this! A combination of vitamin C, taurine, and magnesium that’s designed to stabilize mast cells and calm the response. 3-5 treatments can help most patients see a real shift!

Contact us at Case Integrative Health if this sounds like you, or share this with someone who’s tried everything and still can’t get relief!

You may have seen headlines about a new study by 60 Degrees Pharmaceuticals using tafenoquine for relapsing Babesia — and it’s definitely exciting news!

Three patients who had previously relapsed were treated with a tafenoquine-based regimen and ended up clearing their symptoms and testing.

That said, it’s important to keep in mind that this was a very small study, so we can’t call it a cure yet. The results are promising, but we need more research with more patients to see how well this approach works in the broader population!

Still, this is exactly how progress in medicine happens — early studies like this give us hope, spark new ideas for treatment, and help keep medicine moving forward!

Inflammation is often the body’s response to deeper imbalances.

Before jumping to complex treatments, it’s important to build the foundations of health first:

→ Nutrition
→ Movement
→ Stress regulation
→ Sleep
→ Detoxification

These core systems influence how the immune system behaves and whether the body stays stuck in an inflammatory state.

That’s why Dr. Kelley created Groundwork for Healing — a masterclass designed to help you start addressing these foundations even before your appointment. The course includes everything you need to support an anti-inflammatory lifestyle, from meal recipes and practical resources to handouts for each foundation, so you can start supporting your body right away.

If you’re waiting on a plan from your provider, or just need a place to begin, Groundwork for Healing can give you the foundation you’re looking for. Learn more at HealWithCase.com!

It can be incredibly frustrating when you feel like you’re finally making progress… and then suddenly you hit a wall.

For many patients with chronic illness, this is what we call a healing plateau.

These plateaus often occur when the body becomes stuck in an inflammatory signaling state that disrupts the normal phases of healing. When that signaling stays active, the body can struggle to fully transition into the repair and recovery phases that allow true healing to occur!

Another factor we often see is that the body can adapt to treatments over time. What once helped may start to feel less effective, not because the treatment was wrong, but because the underlying pathways need to be addressed differently.

The key is understanding why the plateau is happening.

By targeting the specific pathways involved in the healing process and adjusting therapies accordingly, we can often help unblock that process and support the body in moving forward again!

Your yearly reminder - as you come outside for the warmer weather, ticks do too! As long as it’s not frozen, they’re active and looking for a meal. Go enjoy the outdoors - just do a quick tick check, use tick spray, and stay aware!

A weekend well spent at the Spring MAPS Conference in North Carolina where connected with providers in the MAPS community, sharing clinical insights and learning the latest research on complex conditions like PANS/PANDAS, ASD, and Lyme!

MAPS continues to do incredible work educating providers on these often difficult-to-diagnose and treat conditions. Always inspiring to be surrounded by clinicians working to better understand and treat complex, chronic illnesses. So grateful to bring what we learned back to our patients in Chicago!

Ever feel like your allergy meds just... stop working?

It might be because your “histamine bucket” is overflowing.

Think of your body as a container: pollen, stress, and even that glass of wine all pour in. If the drain at the bottom is clogged, you get the “overflow”—itchy eyes, brain fog, fatigue, and more.

Swipe through to see why your bucket is stuck and how you can pull the plug!

Whether you have 1 symptom or 30, you’re not “too much” and you’re not “too complicated.”

Here’s how we dive into your symptoms, big or small:

Your first visit is dedicated to gathering your full medical history and building a timeline. Then we cast a wide net of different labs to look for what could actually be driving symptoms—like infections, environmental factors, or metabolic imbalances. Once results are in, we narrow in and start targeting the root cause, and get you started on your journey to living a healthy life!
