“All autoimmune conditions are tied into trauma.” - Dr. Aimie Apigian
While many of us categorize chronic stress as a trigger in the development of autoimmune thyroid conditions, today’s guest does not. Dr. Aimie Apigian believes that many people are being diagnosed with stress or even chronic stress when they should be diagnosed with trauma. She attributes this misdiagnosis to the way we define trauma and stress.
Dr. Aimie Apigian, MD MS MPH is the leading medical expert on how life experiences get stored in the body and restoring the body to its best state of health through her signature model and methodology, The Biology of Trauma™. She is a Board-Certified Preventive Medicine physician with a Masters in Biochemistry and a Masters in Public Health. In addition to her medical training, she is also a Functional Medicine physician and has training and certifications specifically in neuro-autoimmunity, nutrition, and genetics for addictions, mental health, and mood and behavioral disorders. Dr. Aimie also has many certifications in various trauma therapies.
In this conversation, Dr. Aimie and I talk about what got her into this work, how her journey with healing her thyroid led to the development of her signature methodology, the difference between trauma and stress, what you can do to prepare your body for healing, the risk of being retraumatized by healing modalities, how you can help your body to heal itself, and more. Enjoy the episode!
