Dr. Karla Mehlenbacher Founder of Take Root Brain & Body joins us today, she is also a Board Certified Chiropractic Neurologist, and a Holistic Auto-Immune Practitioner. She had an auto-immune disease as a child and a later discovery of Lyme Disease. This is what drew her into holistic health and healing. She has multiple degrees in anatomy, biology and clinical neuroscience. She weaves perspectives from all of these disciplines to support full body wellness. She uses integrative neurology and functional medicine to help people struggling with post concussion syndrome, childhood developmental disorders, chronic pain, and many other neurological and auto-immune conditions. Her hope is to build a community where anyone suffering from chronic illness can seek wellness and feel supported by a wide variety of resources specific to the healing journey.     In this episode, we discuss: Dr. Karla’s auto-immune disease and what lead her to holistic health Is auto-immune rooted in childhood trauma?
