“I thought this was just how my body was.”

For nearly a decade, Carolyn lived with daily achiness — joints, muscles, fatigue — and assumed it was something she’d have to accept.

That is until she came to the UltraWellness Center where her care looked different. 🤍

✨ A full-day appointment.

✨ A collaborative team — physician, nurse, nutritionist.

✨ A plan that looked at her whole body, not just one symptom.

And within weeks:

✔️ The anxiety she’d lived with her entire life disappeared.

✔️ The achiness in her body went away and she’s been able to enjoy nature hikes again.

Functional medicine at the UltraWellness Center looks like personalized care that connects the dots of your life and addresses your whole-body needs, not just treating one symptom.

We are here to normalize feeling WELL and supported in your health journey. There are answers. There is support.

IV therapy at UltraWellness Center isn’t one-size-fits-all—and you don’t need to be a patient to experience it.

Each IV is clinician-guided and thoughtfully tailored to your goals, whether that’s immune support, recovery, stress regulation, hormone balance, or overall vitality. No quick fixes—just targeted nutrients designed to support your body where it needs it most.

As the year winds down, an IV can be a powerful way to restore, reset, and step into the new year feeling more supported and replenished.

✨ Open to everyone. Personalized for you.

A calm gut isn’t about following a perfect food list.

It’s about understanding WHY your gut feels reactive in the first place.

At UltraWellness Center, we see gut symptoms as signals — not inconveniences to silence. Bloating, discomfort, irregular digestion, and food sensitivities often reflect deeper imbalances involving digestion, inflammation, the microbiome, and how your body responds to stress and nourishment.

Functional foods can be powerful tools for support — but they also work best when paired with a personalized, root-cause approach. That’s where the UltraWellness Center can come in and support. 🤍

When we look at the whole picture, the goal isn’t restriction.

It’s resilience. Ease. And a gut that feels supported day to day.

If your digestion feels unpredictable or uncomfortable, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Healing starts with listening — not just to symptoms, but to the story behind them.

🩺 Meet Dr. George Papanicolaou, MD, Functional Medicine Physician at The UltraWellness Center. Dr. George believes that true healing happens when we take the time to understand the whole person — their biology, their lived experiences, and how those two are inseparably connected.

🗒️ His clinical areas of focus include attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism, neurodegenerative disorders, and food allergies and sensitivities. His work often centers on complex, chronic conditions where a systems-based, personalized approach can make all the difference

🎤 Dr. George regularly contributes to the UltraWellness Center blog and has been featured on The Dr. Hyman Show, sharing insights on topics ranging from OCD and gut health to blood pressure and the deeper drivers of disease.

As he puts it:

💬 “I can’t understand a patient’s biology if I don’t first understand their biography.”

If you’re seeking care that honors both your story and your physiology, Dr. George is part of the team here to support your healing journey.

We’re often taught that health means control. We need to control your weight. Control your food. Control your body.

But real health is rarely built through force.

As our bodies change, with age, hormones, stress, life, what once worked can stop working. Not because you failed, but because your physiology is asking for something different.

The scale can offer information, but it can’t tell the full story.

It doesn’t reflect inflammation, stress load, hormone shifts, or whether your body feels safe enough to let go.

Sometimes that “stubborn” weight isn’t something to fight — it’s a signal.

A clue that the body is prioritizing protection, stability, and survival.

At UltraWellness Center, we see this every day. When care replaces control, we can support the whole system and the body often finds balance naturally.

And just as importantly, people find peace.

When your gut isn’t working, your whole life starts shrinking.

That’s what happened to Marcela. After a severe stomach infection and rounds of antibiotics, her digestion slowly deteriorated with food intolerances, weight loss, exhaustion, and nights where she couldn’t sleep from discomfort. She felt like she was losing the ability to live her life.

What changed for her was understanding the root cause: an overgrowth of bacteria in her small intestine — something that often goes undiagnosed in traditional care.

With a personalized functional medicine plan, targeted nutrition, and the right testing under the care of Medical Director, Dr. Liz Boham , she felt relief in two weeks and started gaining her strength (and her life) back within months.

Her words still stay with us:

“It sounds dramatic, but it feels like a second opportunity.”

At The UltraWellness Center, this is why we do what we do — not just to treat symptoms, but to help people truly heal and return to the lives they love.

If you’re struggling with ongoing gut issues, fatigue, food reactions, or a diagnosis that still doesn’t feel like the full story… there is a path forward.

If you’ve been feeling “off” but can’t pinpoint why, you’re not alone.

Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis don’t always start with dramatic symptoms — sometimes the earliest signs are subtle shifts that may be harder to notice.

Here are three early patterns we see at The UltraWellness Center that are often overlooked:

✨ Persistent fatigue
Inflammation can quietly drain your energy long before major flares appear. If your baseline feels lower than normal — that matters.

✨ Digestion feels “off” and lasts more than a few weeks
More bloating, cramping, urgency, or inconsistency can be your gut’s way of telling you there’s inflammation brewing beneath the surface.

✨ Low appetite because food doesn’t feel the same
When chronic inflammation impacts nutrient absorption and gut motility, even familiar foods can feel heavier or harder to tolerate.

What’s important to remember is that IBD is a whole-system condition, affecting gut barrier integrity, immune function, microbiome health, nutrient status, and even your stress + nervous system regulation.

That’s why at The UltraWellness Center, we look beyond symptom management and into the root causes driving inflammation — so you can understand what’s happening in your body and feel supported.

Stress is a physiological chain reaction that touches nearly every system in your body.

And when that stress becomes chronic, the body slowly shifts into “survival mode,” changing how you digest, heal, sleep, and regulate hormones.

Here’s what we see most often in clinic:

đź§  The brain fires first.
Your stress centers signal your adrenal glands to release cortisol + adrenaline.

🌱 Digestion slows.
Stomach acid drops, motility changes, and the gut lining becomes more permeable — which is why bloating, reflux, or IBS symptoms often flare during overwhelming seasons.

🔥 Inflammation rises.
Chronic stress activates the immune system, increasing inflammatory cytokines that can impact hormones, blood sugar, the microbiome, and overall healing capacity.

This is why so many chronic symptoms have a stress physiology component.

As Dr. Cindy Geyer shares: “You can’t separate the mind from the body.”

At The UltraWellness Center, we look at the full picture — your HPA axis, gut integrity, immune activation, nutrient status, and sleep patterns — so we can understand how stress is showing up IN your body and design a plan that supports deeper healing.

If stress symptoms have been building, know you’re not imagining it — your body is communicating. And we’re here to help you make sense of it. 💚

Healing is possible at any age — and Betsy’s story is a beautiful reminder of what is possible when nutrition becomes targeted, therapeutic, and deeply personalized.

After being diagnosed with ulcerative colitis at 70, she came to The UltraWellness Center looking for answers beyond symptom management.

Through functional nutrition, advanced testing, and a personalized plan that supported her gut, immune system, and lifestyle, her body finally had what it needed to heal.

Within just 3 months, her inflammation normalized, her symptoms resolved, and she entered remission — without needing stronger pharmaceuticals.

Every person’s path is unique, but root-cause care can open doors that often get overlooked. If you’re navigating IBD or chronic gut symptoms, you deserve support that sees the full picture of your health.

Crohn’s and Ulcerative Colitis are more than inflammation in the gut.

They are conditions shaped by the immune system, the microbiome, food triggers, stress, and environmental factors. That’s why no two cases look the same.

At The UltraWellness Center, we look deeper to understand YOUR root causes: gut imbalances, food sensitivities, nutrient deficiencies, stress patterns, and immune triggers. When you address what’s actually driving the inflammation, the body has a much better chance to repair, achieve remission, and calm symptoms.

If you’re living with IBD or unresolved digestive issues, you don’t have to navigate it alone.
