Meet Alison

Alison came to Philly Wellness Center with chronic abdominal pain that had persisted for years despite trying multiple approaches without lasting relief.

For years, Alison struggled with significant abdominal discomfort and had tried numerous strategies without finding something that consistently worked. By the time she came to Philly Wellness Center, she was looking for a more comprehensive approach to understanding what might be contributing to her symptoms.

She began our individualized GI protocol, and within a few weeks she reported that her abdominal pain had resolved and that she was feeling significantly better.

Within several weeks of beginning her GI protocol, Alison reported that the abdominal pain she had experienced for years had gone away.

After feeling better, she temporarily stopped the protocol and later experienced a recurrence of symptoms following travel and dietary changes. When she returned to Philly Wellness Center and restarted the program, she again responded well and is currently doing very well from a GI standpoint.

As her digestive health stabilized, Alison wanted to address additional goals related to energy and weight. She began hormone optimization and an individualized medical weight-management program and has since lost more than 10 pounds.

She reports feeling better overall, is pleased with the changes she is seeing in her body, and has also incorporated SoftWave therapy to address persistent shoulder pain.

Alison’s experience demonstrated the importance of looking at health as an interconnected process rather than treating each complaint in isolation. Her care began with chronic digestive symptoms and gradually expanded to address energy, hormones, body composition, and musculoskeletal discomfort as her overall health improved.
