About Dr. Aimie Apigian
Dr. Aimie) is a Board-Certified Physician in Preventive Medicine and Addiction Medicine who specializes in recognizing and addressing the chronic effects of trauma on one’s biology.
After helping her foster-adopted son as he struggled with severe emotional and behavioral issues, she started to see how much of trauma is biology, not psychology.
She earned her medical degree from Loma Linda University, has a Masters in Biochemistry, and a Masters in Public Health.
2 years into her general surgery residency, she went from running marathons and being an avid cyclist to severe fatigue, autoimmune issues, was overweight and depressed.
Through her personal experiences, she has found we all live compromised due to stored trauma in our bodies.
Talk therapy is not the answer. Dr. Amie’s mission is to share with others the ways to accelerate the healing journey to consistent high states of health, aliveness, and performance through leveraging our own very survival, and reward pathways.
