Rising Above Lyme Disease

A Revolutionary, Holistic Approach to Managing and Reversing the Symptoms of Lyme Disease and Reclaiming Your Life

De: Julia Greenspan

Narrado por: VyVy Nguyen

Rising Above Lyme Disease is a comprehensive, whole-body approach to overcoming Lyme disease and reclaiming your life.

Incidence of Lyme disease is skyrocketing. If caught early, antibiotics can often successfully treat it, but more often than not, Lyme is asymptomatic and evades diagnosis until it is a full-blown, chronic condition that requires a multi-faceted treatment plan.

In Rising Above Lyme Disease, renowned naturopath and Lyme-literate doctor Julia Greenspan presents a Comprehensive and Alternative Medicine (CAM) approach for recovery for those who have been suffering with this disease for weeks, months, years, or even decades. Operating from the front lines of the epidemic in New England, she gives hope to those who thought there was none, or feel unheard by all those around them.

Dr. Greenspan's integrative treatment plan addresses not only the body, but the mind as well, and includes:

• Standard protocols such as antibiotic and probiotic care, which can be essential to long-term healing (despite fears)
• Detoxing and dietary changes that help get proven results
• Therapies such as yoga, massage, earthing, and qi gong
• Therapies that dig deeper (when nothing else seems to be working) and focus on removing obstacles to healing, such as past trauma, negative beliefs about self, unhealthy lifestyle choices, genetics, hormone imbalance, environmental toxins, and other infections—all of which have a very real, and often overlooked, effect on recovery

Through this comprehensive approach that focuses on the whole person and the very personal ways in which the disease may affect one's life, it is possible to find relief, become your best advocate, and ultimately, rise above Lyme.

This book is not only educational, but also inspiring, as Dr. Greenspan comes from the perspective of both a naturopathic doctor and recovered Lyme patient. She’s been through the throes of the illness and has come out on the other side, bringing with her an understanding and drive to help Lyme patients with real passion—and this shines through in Rising Above Lyme Disease. This book helps navigate your way through an incredibly complex illness by educating you on testing, self-advocacy, supportive therapies, and the ever-important education we all need for prevention.”—Laura Piazza, co-author of Recipes for Repair: A 10-Week Program to Combat Chronic Inflammation and and Identify Food Sensitivities

“It takes a special person to outsmart a spirochete and a special doctor to dare enough to do it. From demystifying and untangling a dizzying array of symptoms with keen intuition, proper testing, and comprehensive assessment, to her effective and ever-adaptable naturopathic treatment plan—an intelligent and bold combination of antibiotic medications, probiotics, herbal medicine, detox, cognition support and more—Julia Greenspan is that special person and doctor. I should know because I was her patient. Julia goes above and beyond in this book to address things no one else has—from dealing with the trauma of this devastating illness, to facing denial and cost, to how to present yourself and your challenges to family, co-workers, and schools. This is a most honest and practical guide to getting your life back.”—Joy Devins, Lyme disease survivor and thriver, and author of Lyme Whisperer: The Secret’s Out

Learned SO much!

This book is such a “MUST-READ” or “MUST LISTEN”! It explains so much about Lyme, co-infections, bacteria’s, tests, diet, etc. and I wish I read it right after diagnosis in June 2024! This author, Dr. Julia Greenspan had Lyme and Co-infections herself, and battled it like all of us are doing, for a long time. It’s so nice to read a book where the author REALLY gets it and all the things she has tried on herself to battle Lyme!
