Be Well Functional Medicine

Where do I begin. My health was in such bad shape when I decided I have to do something and fast. Alicja has been a Godsend. I was in constant pain (joints, head, muscle), zero energy, anxiety through the roof, extremely irritable all of the time, constant stomach cramps/pain, weight gain, brain fog, either severe constipation or severe diarrhea (no in between), severe acid reflux and could not sleep without taking a full strength Ambien and still sleep was a hit or miss….mostly miss. After extensive gut testing, Alicja made a plan to help me get better. After changing my diet, taking recommended supplements and exercise I now take NO antacid medicine and best of all NO more Ambien. I have taken Ambien every night for many years. I still have a little trouble going and staying asleep occasionally but am on the right track now. I now don’t get up feeling like I am hungover, like I haven’t even slept or in a fog like I did every morning when taking Ambien. Alicja also discovered I have a high intolerance to gluten. Since eliminating gluten from my diet, I no longer feel bloated, gassy and cramping after eating. If you are ready to get your health back and feel great again, contact Alicja. It is not an easy road to go down but well worth it to feel better again. And as an added bonus, I have lost 14 pounds. Go ahead and take that step…you won’t regret it.

Alicja has been wonderful to work with. 1) I was having insanely unpredictable GI habits for basically my entire life. But certainly worse in my 30s. Plus insane bloating by the evening. anxious tendencies, not-so-great skin with frequent breakouts, poor energy, and not the best sleep sometimes. All this as someone who is generally conscious of what goes into my body and overall a generally healthy eater. Some of the first recommendations and changes she made even before any diagnostics helped with some of my GI issues almost immediately. Then through the GI Map and her recommendations on dietary changes and a supplement regimen, my bloating case finally disappeared, my GI habits became much more predictable and “normal,” my skin cleared up incredibly, and I actually lost about 18 lbs so far without specifically trying and with only walking most days as exercise in the last 7-8 weeks. 2) Alicja has been very approachable, knowledgeable, and super thorough. She’s also very available - if I message her a random question about the dietary changes, supplements, etc, she gets back to me quickly (within reason since I’m not her only client and she has a life outside of responding to my messages!!). 3) there is still more to come. We’ve looked at my GI environment and made changes to improve symptoms related to that, and now we’re shifting to looking at hormones, so as far as the value of Alicja’s services, it’s clearly excellent given I’m already seeing incredible results and not done yet!

Working with Alicja has helped me turn a corner on some really miserable health issues. Her approach was very holistic, in that she looked at many systems, not just what most health care professionals would immediately point to. She truly cares about you as a person, not just a patient. I’ve learned so much working with her, and have seen real results through the process. I highly recommend Be Well Functional Medicine!
