Welcome to the most unique medical practice in Southwest Florida!   At the International Center for Health and Wellness, we don’t just treat your symptoms; we treat the causes of your condition.  We care for those who haven’t been able to get answers and help in other medical practices and specialty centers.  And we do it cost effectively, not requiring expensive and repeated treatments that never address the underling problem.

They include those suffering from:

  •  Fibromyalgia
  • Chronic Fatigue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (now called Systemic Exertional Intolerance Disease)
  • Environmental Toxicity, including Biotoxin Illness (Mold Illness)
  • Post Covid Syndrome (Long Haulers)
  • Post Vaccine Syndrome
  • Hormone Imbalances (Thyroid, Adrenal, Sex Hormones)


We provide Hope for the Tired and Hurting!

  • Don’t continue to suffer with pain or fatigue that prevents you from doing the things you enjoy or need to do.
  • Don’t continue to live with autoimmune disorders and be told that you need to take immunosuppressive drugs to control the symptoms.
  • Don’t continue to suffer with hormone imbalance symptoms that interfere with your enjoyment of life.
  • Don’t continue to be poisoned by our environment and pretend that you aren’t suffering any ill effects.
  • Don’t continue to live in a bubble because places, foods and even people make you sick. 
  • Don’t continue to put bandaids on your problems, spending thousands of dollars on treatments that are not working, and never address the underlying cause of your illness.
