Teresa Melton recently attended a three-day seminar titled “Mastering the Thyroid.” The seminar was presented by Michael Pierce and hosted by Apex Energetics.

The purpose of this course was to teach clinicians how to support the thyroid through natural approaches. The seminar was organized to help clinicians master the concepts of thyroid physiology, assessment and nutritional support. Additional instruction was provided in the role of the immune system, endocrine system, environmental haptens and medication reactions, and how they affect thyroid health.

Melton is a chiropractic physician and acupuncturist at Allergies, Aches & Pains Chiropractic & Acupuncture Center Ltd., Sycamore.
