Overview:
The prolonged state of hypervigilance that the world is experiencing can be exhausting. The result of prolonged, on-going stress to the body, including infections, can induce neuroinflammation and result in poor focus, concentration, fatigue and even mood changes. When considering patient care, it is important that prevention and management include treatment of inflammation. To support holistic care within our clients, it is imperative that we strategically combine herbs and nutraceuticals which deliver powerful therapeutic benefit and symptom relief.
Dr. Khamba will also be including clinical examples of how addressing inflammation as a root cause to aiding in mental health care can be implemented. In her interview with Kate, Baljit will talk about her experience in research and best practices in patient care for treatment. Dr. Khamba employs a strategic evidence-based approach to her patient care which involves empowering her patients and delivering clinical care focused on nutrition, botanicals, homeopathics, traditional Asian medicines and lifestyle counselling. This interview will help deepen your clinical practice and knowledge base on the root cause of inflammation in mental health.
