Abbey's Road to Wellness: Overcoming Chronic Illness Through Trauma Healing

It changed so much, so many things that were not the reason I was seeking treatment and I didn't realize that was like a nervous system dysfunction. I just thought that was a normal part of life and never thought that that had anything to do with my nervous system health at all.
Imagine battling chronic illness for decades, only to discover its roots lie in unresolved trauma. That’s Abbey’s story. In this episode of 'Recovery x APN', Abbey, an alum turned employee at All Points North Lodge, shares her transformative journey from enduring years of stress, loss, and misdiagnoses to finding a path to wellness. Her struggle with autoimmune flare-ups and fertility issues seemed never-ending until she tried a treatment called stellate ganglion block (SGB).
This therapy provided an immediate psychological and physical reset, allowing her to break free from the cycle of chronic illness. Abbey’s narrative underscores the importance of trauma-informed care and holistic healing. She discusses how addressing trauma's impact on the nervous system can lead to significant health improvements. The episode also highlights the crucial role of mental health care, mindfulness, and nutrition in personal growth and recovery.
Abbey’s experience with SGB not only helped her manage the physical and emotional toll of trauma but also empowered her to maintain her wellness and handle stress more effectively. For anyone grappling with chronic illness or supporting someone who is, Abbey’s story offers hope and practical insights. Her journey is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible and that healing requires addressing both the mind and body.
Tune in to hear Abbey's inspiring tale and learn about the innovative treatments that helped her reclaim her life.
