The 2022 Integrative Medicine Preconference

Stress—A Deep Dive: Moving Beyond the HPA Axis

We’ve all felt the stress of the past year, and patients are more ready than ever to address it. As clinicians, we need to understand how our patients’ stress is uniquely affecting their health and help them to create and implement a personalized plan to manage it. In this preconference we’ll go beyond the HPA axis to discuss stress in the context of immune health and draw connections to the gut-brain axis. This will help you recognize the nuances in identifying and caring for patients’ individual needs and provide protocol templates you can utilize at your next appointment.

March 4, 2022, 9 AM-4 PM

Miami Marriott Biscayne Bay, Miami, FL

Fees: $99 for preconference; fees vary for standard conference pass

Download this fact sheet on HDL cholesterol to learn more about age-old assumptions and the studies that have been done on HDL levels vs. function.
