Capital Integrative Health

Capital Integrative Health Capital Integrative Health is a functional medicine practice focused on root-cause healing.

We help individuals understand why symptoms persist and support long-term health through personalized, integrative care. Capital Integrative Health started with the collaboration of Dr. Andrew Wong (Internal Medicine) and Elizabeth Baer (Acupuncture), two healthcare practitioners determined to create better, more comprehensive ways to serve their patients. Our shared vision of providing progressive whole health care found a welcome audience with many other healthcare veterans, allowing us to expand our clinical team to include a wide range of offerings, including: integrative primary care, functional medicine, functional nutrition, acupuncture, personal training, bodywork, psychology services, and wellness therapies including IV nutrition, IV ozone, infrared sauna, and red light therapy. Together, our mission is to educate, lead and inspire each other towards optimal health and true healing. We are excited to bring a level of care that empowers both patient and practitioner to learn from one another and share this learning with our community.

Detoxification involves many organ systems but also the gut microbiome. Imbalances in the gut microbiome can lead to hormone imbalances, systemic inflammation, obvious symptoms like diarrhea or bloating but also a phenomenon known as “retoxicification” where estrogen gets recirculated from the colon back to the liver, doubling the work for liver detox.

Why is sauna a key tool in optimizing your health, wellness and even longevity? Sauna helps with deep detoxification (including of hard-to-get rid of microplastics). It also activates heat shock protein 70 in a similar way to moderate exercise, so it’s really great for your cardiovascular health and circulation. As always remember to pre- and post-hydrate with electrolytes and take a cool shower afterwards for maximum benefits.

For a great portable sauna that is low EMF and has advanced semiconductor technology visit www.relaxsaunas.com and use code CIH to get a discount. We like the Silver Elite sauna and that is what we use in our office, for both our patients and ourselves.

Why do you still have fatigue, headaches, joint pain, irritable bowel, pain, gut issues, or just the feeling that “something isn’t quite right” even though your doctor tells you your labs are “all normal”?

The two main reasons may be that you
1. Need an optimal interpretation of your labs that matches and aligns with your own individual biochemical needs, and/or
2. Need a more thorough panel of bloodwork and advanced functional measurements such as stool microbiome, hormone metabolites, intracellular nutrient levels, deeper toxin and infection testing, brain mapping, or functional genomic testing to get a more clear picture about what’s going on

Your intuition is right, it’s not just “all in your head” - we help you detect and address what you are already feeling to restore and optimize your energy, balance your hormones, improve metabolism, reduce inflammation and transform your physical and mental health so that you get better and stay better.

Nature has a medicine for you! Timing, condition specificity, interactions with supplements and medications, need to be considered, discussed and addressed. We believe that integrative medicine that combines effective conventional and natural therapies, provides the best results for patients. One size does not fit all, and by considering all factors, a more personalized and effective treatment care plan can be co-created.

There is something powerful and restorative about returning to nature. Getting outside in parks has been shown to raise natural killer cell (immune cell) activity, decrease the stress hormone cortisol, and create a cellular safety response allowing your body, mind and spirit the opportunity to start healing from the inside out. It’s a beautiful day to explore nature today! 💖

Autoimmune conditions are not random. Stress, gut microbiome imbalances, food sensitivities, toxins like mold toxins and heavy metals, and infections such Epstein-Barr virus, Lyme disease, Bartonella, cytomegalovirus, and many more aggravate the immune system, leading to a “self-attack” on one’s own tissues and organs. While reducing inflammation and stopping the attack on the tissues via symptom relief is important, another key for lasting resolution is identifying and addressing these roots causes of autoimmune disease.

Cholesterol is not the cause of heart disease. It is inflammation of the cholesterol particle from gut, toxin, immune or other imbalances that leads to blood vessel inflammation and clotting. Figure out and address the root causes for true prevention of heart disease.

Get outside to get your vitamin D naturally!
Vitamin D is actually a hormone that improves all aspects of health - from bone and muscle health, to immune, gut and heart health. Getting the photon energy from full spectrum light is a bonus. If you supplement take D3 with K2 for maximum safety and effectiveness
