Welcome to Mickel Therapy

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

As most of you suffering with the symptoms of CFS can attest, you were only given this diagnosis after an exhaustive battery of tests that excluded other ‘standard’ medical conditions. You have been told that you have a ‘syndrome’ with no known cause and that no consistently effective treatment exists. Much research has gone into CFS, especially looking for viral clues or other infective organisms. Despite the time and resources devoted to this, a direct infectious cause remains unproven. At Mickel Therapy, we can offer a unique perspective that will allow you to see your body in an exciting and revealing new light, and we can provide a blueprint for healing that we believe to be highly effective.

We believe that the initiating factor involved with this condition, and others, begins with dysfunction of the Hypothalamus gland which is a tiny gland located deep within your brain. Despite its size, it is the master control of many vital body systems and pathways. One such pathway is called the HPA axis, where the Hypothalamus is the H and adrenal gland is the A. Isn’t it interesting that several studies of CFS have revealed disturbances in this axis. Not understanding how to address the disturbances within the H, many health practitioners attempted and continue to try to balance the A with supplements/extracts, etc. Although the intentions are good, this can only be an attempt to paper over the cracks as the H directs and controls this axis.

The Mickel Therapy approach effectively explains the known links between the Hypothalamus and your altered body physiology and then describes what we believe are the initiating factors involved in the Hypothalamus being ‘overburdened’. The treatment process guides and supports you as you apply our new blueprint for healing that we feel is more consistent with your individual energetic nature.
