Reported Result
Restored energy, resolved hives, and improved cortisol levels
Time to Value
6 months
I was struggling with chronic hives and fatigue... just taking a shower was exhausting.
The difference that came for me was through the testing that the WAE Clinic performed. One of those tests was a cortisol test, which basically, in the beginning, showed me that my cortisol gas tank was empty.
I'm actually able to go throughout the day without having to lay down and take a nap.

The interview

Can you introduce yourself and describe how you felt before starting?

My name is Summers Todd. I am an accountant, and I work from home. And I also homeschool my 2 teenage daughters. Six months ago I was feeling stuck. I was struggling with chronic hives and fatigue, and also had low blood pressure, and my heart rate was really rapid and would spike pretty high. I struggled with getting up off the couch, and just taking a shower was exhausting.

What made you decide to choose The WAE Clinic?

What made me say 'yes' to the WAE Clinic was reading Susan's story. She really had walked in my shoes before, and she had found answers for herself, and she was very focused on giving personalized care, and truly caring about each patient.

Did you have any hesitations or obstacles before starting the program?

If there was something that would have stopped me from starting with the program, it would be just not feeling well enough to put my all into it. I wanted to give it everything I had, but just didn't feel good enough to do that. And actually the way I overcame that was just starting with the very first very easy, simple steps, and they build each week. They really give lots of grace, and they don't ask for perfection.

How did this experience compare to things you tried in the past?

Something that I tried in the past that didn't work for me was just going to a traditional doctor. They gave me several prescriptions which would treat the symptoms, but they didn't treat the root problem. The difference that came for me was through the testing that the WAE Clinic performed. One of those tests was a cortisol test, which basically, in the beginning, showed me that my cortisol gas tank was empty.

What were the most surprising things you learned during the program?

What surprised me the most with the WAE Clinic is how much I learned. From reading food labels to breathing techniques that really work, and really do release tension.

What is the biggest difference in your life today?

After working with the WAE Clinic, I have a lot more energy and lot less brain fog. What I'm able to do now that I couldn't do before is to be present with my family. I'm actually able to go throughout the day without having to lay down and take a nap. By the end of the program, [my cortisol] is completely turned around.

Frequently asked

What if I don't feel well enough to start a wellness program?

Summers Todd initially worried she wouldn't have the energy to put her all into the program. She overcame this because The WAE Clinic uses simple, easy steps that build each week, offering grace rather than demanding perfection.

How does The WAE Clinic differ from traditional doctors?

According to Summers, traditional doctors provided prescriptions that only treated her symptoms. The WAE Clinic focused on the root problem through specialized testing, such as cortisol analysis, to identify why her 'gas tank' was empty.

What kind of results can I expect for chronic fatigue?

Summers reported that after six months, her cortisol levels completely turned around. She transitioned from being exhausted by a shower to being able to go through the entire day without napping.
