Autoimmune Conditions

Root cause support for lasting resilience.

Autoimmune conditions occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues, leading to chronic inflammation and symptoms that can affect nearly every system. From fatigue and joint pain to brain fog, rashes, and digestive issues—autoimmunity often shows up in ways that seem disconnected but share a common root.

At Vital Source Functional Medicine, we take a comprehensive, root-cause approach to autoimmune conditions. Rather than simply managing symptoms, we work to uncover and address the underlying triggers—such as gut dysfunction, infections, toxic burden, food sensitivities, and chronic stress—that drive immune system dysregulation.

Our Functional Medicine Approach

You're Not Broken

Autoimmune conditions don’t mean your body is turning against you—they mean your body is responding to something it sees as a threat. Together, we’ll uncover what that is, and work to bring your immune system back into balance so you can feel like yourself again.
