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. — Summers Todd
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. — Summers Todd
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. — Summers Todd
Is the Migraine Relief Code worth the cost?
Lorie Falkenstine noted that while the cost was a potential barrier, her lack of quality of life brought her to a breaking point. She decided she would pay whatever was necessary to be well and regain her health. — Lorie Falkenstine
Can I stop taking Sumatriptan for migraines?
After working with Dr. Barrett, Lorie reported that she no longer needs to carry Sumatriptan in her pocket. She now experiences the freedom to hike and exercise without relying on rescue medications. — Lorie Falkenstine
Does the Migraine Relief Code work if other diets failed?
Lorie tried diet changes including a keto diet, which actually made her condition worse. Dr. Barrett's program provided the specific tools and root cause analysis that previous dietary changes and doctors could not. — Lorie Falkenstine
