I discovered the Hotze Health & Wellness Center many years ago at the recommendation of a dear friend who was a patient. I needed help with severe yeast overgrowth, hypothyroidism, female hormone imbalance and allergies. (Why not have it all?!!) I had been diagnosed with hypothyroidism in my 30’s but I feel certain I had been hypothyroid since birth because of the symptoms I had, (even as a baby), along with surgical removal of a very large mass (from the thyroid) when I was pre-kindergarten age. I did not realize what a difference treatment with a natural thyroid hormone could make until Dr. Hotze switched me from Synthroid to natural thyroid. My female hormones had also been out of balance since puberty and then to make things worse, I had a tubal ligation at age 24. Of course, not to leave anything out, I had allergies with bronchitis as well as chronic sore throats. I struggled with a weight problem, brain fog, anxiety and depression but had no idea I could actually feel well if my hormones were simply balanced. Let me tell you, you can feel wonderfully well if your hormones are balanced. My treatment regimen included bio-identical hormones, a yeast detox, vitamins, minerals, an eating program and allergy drops. I noticed subtle improvement within 48 hours and earthshaking improvement over the years that followed.
Little did I know this was a glimpse into my very future.
After finding my personal success as a guest at the Center, when Dr. Hotze sounded the call on the radio program in 2002 for additional staff, I answered it. I have absolutely loved being able to help people begin to understand that they can feel wonderful. Because our treatment and services are typically not covered by insurance, people will often decide that our treatments are too “luxurious” for them but because of my financial circumstances when I came here as a patient, I know that if I could afford this, you can afford it!” After all being well and feeling well are priceless!
