A central part of aging well is preventing infections and cancer or treating them. Many conventional treatments come with serious side-effects, which is why at my practice we integrate and combine conventional methods with natural medicine. This provides a more holistic and supportive approach to heal the whole person, not just the disease.
Kylene Terhune is a functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner, wife, mom, dog-mom, and foodie. A former opera singer turned health nerd, she runs a virtual health coaching practice working with women who struggle with chronic digestive symptoms. Kylene’s mission is to empower women in the home to go from homemakers to healthmakers through education, action, and simple lifelong changes. After recovering from Hodgkin’s Lymphoma with the help of an integrative treatment approach, Kylene wrote Healthy Through Hodgkin’s) in order to help others do the same.
After her diagnosis, Kaylene dove into the world of integrative medicine. While chemotherapy is very effective in curing Hodgkin’s, it does so at a cost. In some ways, the treatments can be as devastating as the disease. Ever an inquisitive person, Kylene began looking for ways to treat her disease in a more comprehensive way. This came to involve fewer chemo treatments combined with supplements to help her body recover.
Kylene takes her hard-learned lessons and applies them in her own work. This means helping her clients find a diet that is personalized just for them. No two guts are the same. That’s why becoming the engineer of your own nutrition is a key to healthy living.
A large part of Kylene’s healing involved curing what she calls “emotional constipation”. She built connecting with her feelings and faith into the bedrock of her recovery process. Addressing and dealing with blocked emotions is an integral part of healing the whole person.
