Primary therapies we use for mold illness & CIRS
CIRS is a multi-system inflammatory response — protocols must remove the trigger, lower inflammation, and rebuild the immune system.
Why Mold Illness Is So Often Missed
Mold illness — or Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS) — is not a simple mold allergy. It is a complex, genetically driven condition in which roughly 25% of the population lacks the HLA-DR immune variants needed to properly process and excrete biotoxins produced in water-damaged buildings.
For these individuals, biotoxin exposure triggers a cascade of systemic inflammation that disrupts hormone regulation, neurological function, immune signaling, and cellular energy production. Symptoms are broad — fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, respiratory issues, mood changes — which is why patients are so frequently misdiagnosed.
Effective treatment requires identifying and removing the source exposure, supporting biotoxin clearance with binders, and addressing the systemic inflammatory burden with targeted therapies including EBO2 ozone therapy and IV NAD+.
Common Mold Illness Symptoms
- Profound fatigue not improved by rest
- Brain fog — concentration difficulty, memory loss, word-finding
- Sinus congestion and respiratory issues
- Joint and muscle aches and pain
- Light and sound sensitivity
- Mood disturbances — anxiety, depression, irritability
- Chronic sleep disruption
- Skin rashes and heightened sensitivities
- Neurological symptoms — tingling, tremors, numbness
- Digestive issues — bloating, nausea, abdominal discomfort
Integrative Mold Illness Treatments
Each protocol is sequenced to address the root mechanisms of CIRS — not just manage symptoms.
EBO2 Ozone Therapy
Extracorporeal blood ozonation delivers high-concentration ozone and UV irradiation directly to circulating blood — supporting immune modulation, reducing systemic inflammation, and enhancing biotoxin clearance.
Learn moreNAD+ IV Therapy
Mold illness drives mitochondrial dysfunction and neurological stress. IV NAD+ replenishes depleted cellular energy stores, supporting cognitive function, neural repair, and overall resilience.
Learn moreNaturopathic Detox Protocol
Prescription-grade biotoxin binders (cholestyramine, Welchol), drainage support, anti-inflammatory herbals, and individualized supplementation — sequenced according to CIRS treatment protocols.
Learn moreComprehensive CIRS Testing
Full CIRS biomarker panel including TGF-beta-1, MMP-9, MSH, C4a, VEGF, VIP, and HLA-DR genotyping — confirming diagnosis and guiding treatment sequencing at every stage.
