This class discusses the history and current understanding of tick-borne diseases such as Lyme Disease, Ehrlichiosis, Babesiosis and other co-infections. We examine both the current conventional approaches to treatment as well as complementary protocols, the use of botanicals to enhance the effectiveness of orthodox therapy, and the treatment of many Lyme-related symptoms such as fatigue, arthritis, Bell’s Palsy, brain fog and insomnia.We also explore new research on dosing patters that can make both conventional and herbal therapies more effective for treatment of acute and chronic Lyme infections. We also discuss conventional antibiotics used to treat tick-borne diseases, including doxycycline, amoxicillin, cefurotime, telithromycin, azithromycin, tetracycline, mepron.
