If your doctor is only testing your TSH… you’re only getting ONE piece of the puzzle.🧩

TSH is not a thyroid hormone.
It’s a brain hormone made by the pituitary gland.
Its job? To tell your thyroid how much thyroid hormone to make.

👉 But here’s the problem:
Testing ONLY TSH tells you what the BRAIN is saying…
not what the THYROID is actually doing.

To get a true picture of your thyroid health, you need a FULL THYROID PANEL, including:

✔️ Free T4
✔️ Free T3
✔️ Thyroglobulin Antibodies
✔️ TPO Antibodies

These markers reveal:
💛 How well your thyroid is converting hormones
💛 If your immune system is attacking your thyroid
💛 Early signs of Hashimoto’s (long before TSH changes)
💛 If you are deficient in thyroid nutrients

✨ Don’t settle for incomplete testing.
Ask your doctor for a full thyroid panel—or find a provider who will actually look at the whole picture.

Because your energy, mood, metabolism, fertility, and overall health depend on it. 💛

Thyroid functional medicine testing is available at Roots Wholistic Health.

🌿 Feeling Anxious, Overwhelmed, or On Edge? Infrared Sauna Therapy Can Help.

If you’re struggling with anxiety, feeling overwhelmed, noticing a racing heart, or dealing with cold hands + feet, your nervous system is talking to you — and it may be stuck in fight-or-flight.

✨ Infrared sauna therapy is one of the most calming tools to help bring your body back into balance.

Here’s how it supports your system:

🔥 Calms Anxiety & Overwhelm
Infrared frequency activates your parasympathetic (“rest + relax”) nervous system, lowering stress hormones and helping your mind finally slow down.

💗 Improves Blood Flow
If you’re always cold — especially in your hands and feet — improved circulation from infrared therapy can help warm your body from the inside out.

💆‍♀️ Relaxes Muscle Tension
Stress shows up physically. Infrared heat melts tension, reduces tightness, and helps your body release what it’s been holding onto.

🧘 Supports Heart Rate Variability
A more regulated nervous system = fewer racing-heart episodes and a calmer, more grounded you.

Your body wants to feel safe again — sometimes it just needs the right support.

✨ Infrared Sauna Sessions Now Available at Roots Wholistic Health
Online booking is open and easy. Come relax, reset, and breathe again.

🌿 The Truth Behind Eczema

Eczema isn’t just dry skin. 🤯
It’s your child’s body telling you there’s something deeper going on — often inflammation and irritation starting in the gut.🔥

The skin and gut are closely connected — when the gut is inflamed or imbalanced, it can show up on the skin as rashes, dryness, acne or eczema flare-ups.

At Roots Wholistic Health, we use functional medicine testing to uncover the why behind your child’s symptoms — identifying triggers like food sensitivities, gut dysbiosis, or nutrient deficiencies. 🌱

Because when you heal the gut, you can calm the skin — from the inside out. 💚

✨ Let’s get to the root cause of your child’s eczema, not just cover it up.

😴 The Truth About Fatigue 😴
Let’s get one thing straight — fatigue is NOT normal.

If you’re relying on caffeine just to get through the day, crashing by mid-afternoon, or feeling wired but tired at night… your body is trying to tell you something. ⚠️

There’s always a root cause — and it’s not just “being busy” or “age”.

At Roots Wholistic Health, we look deeper to uncover what’s really behind your exhaustion:
🌿 Hormone imbalances (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone)
🌿 Thyroid dysfunction (especially when TSH is “normal,” but your Free T3 and Free T4 aren’t!)
🌿 Cortisol dysregulation (your stress hormone may be too high or too low)
🌿 Nutrient deficiencies, gut issues, or inflammation

When you test properly, you can finally get answers — and a personalized plan to restore your energy naturally. 💚

Your body isn’t broken. It’s just asking for support.

✨ The Truth Behind Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis ✨
Did you know that Hashimoto’s isn’t actually a thyroid problem?
It’s an immune system problem. 💥

In Hashimoto’s, your immune system mistakenly attacks your thyroid — leading to symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, hair loss, and mood changes. But here’s the truth that many people aren’t told ⤵️

➡️ Hashimoto’s CAN be reversed by finding and removing what’s triggering your immune system to attack your thyroid.
➡️ Triggers can include gut inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, food sensitivities, chronic stress, toxins, and hormone imbalances.
➡️ Taking levothyroxine alone doesn’t fix the root cause — and in many cases, it can make thyroid damage worse over time if the immune attack isn’t addressed.

At Roots, we use functional medicine testing to uncover those hidden triggers, calm your immune system, and help you start feeling like yourself again. 💚

👩‍⚕️ If you’ve been told “your labs are normal” but you still don’t feel well — it’s time to dig deeper.

Our Story

At Roots Wholistic Health, we are committed to serving the health and wellness needs of families in Wisconsin. Our mission is to help them find answers to their health questions, and offer options that might not be provided by other medical professionals. We look beyond the symptoms to the root cause of the problem. In order to do this, we offer chiropractic care from newborn to adult, functional medicine testing (hormones, thyroid, adrenals, mineral and heavy metals), and nutritional consultation (food allergies, anti-inflammatory, weight loss and supplement support). "The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest their patients in the care of the human frame, in diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease." - Thomas Edison
