Hello, I'm Dr Kirstey Holland. I have over 20 year

Hello, I'm Dr Kirstey Holland. I have over 20 years experience working with women who are worn out from struggling with the challenges of peri/menopause, such as gut disorders, anxiety, weight gain and more.

My aim is to create a community of vital transitioning women so we can transition from this place…from this roller coaster of perimenopause into a beautiful, calm, peaceful, magic, menopause.

I have developed a methodology that aims to heal, seal and repair the gut, rebalance hormones and rescue metabolic health so that my patients can be their best and most vibrant self again.

Join me, let's journey together.

The other thing is timing.

Quite often, functional medical doctors will look at a diagnosis and they will want to treat it immediately. So, for example, if there's a parasite in the gastrointestinal tract, I'll often find patients coming to my clinic on very, very strong antimicrobials,
antifungals, antiparasitic medications, feeling absolutely awful and unable to take the prescription. And this is where timing is so important, and this is where you need to match your patient where they are at. So timing is so important.

For example, with a patient with a dysbiotic gut or a leaky gut presentation, you need to heal, seal, and repair that gut way before you give that patient strong antimicrobials, antifungals, antiparasitics. Otherwise they are going to feel absolutely awful and will not be able to be compliant with that prescription because those antimicrobials, antifungals, antiparasitics are leaking through into the bloodstream, creating inflammatory cytokines that are attacking all sorts of things and potentially making the gut dysbiosis worse.

So it's really about timing. The other thing about timing, and, I mean, I don't want to harp on too much about parasites, but we do need to understand that certain parasites have life cycles. I often see a gap in prescription technique around pausing. So say, for example, you have a parasite in your gut, the minute you introduce the anti microbials and the anti parasitics, those parasites are here to survive. They will immediately lay eggs so that their lava can continue on.

More mistakes people make, and lots of the mistake

More mistakes people make, and lots of the mistakes that I've seen people make in my clinic.

So I am usually the end of the line practitioner.

So at this point in time, 22 years later, I can't say that I've seen it all, but I've seen a lot.

And one of the mistakes that I see people make is they try to do the right thing, and they try to incorporate the beauty of traditional Chinese medicine or functional medicine or neuropathy with conventional medicine.

And there are lots of MDS or doctors trained in this space. But a lot of the time, when you don't have classical training in herbal medicine and you haven't gone to school for five to ten years to study about the way herbs interact, you miss things…

So, for example, some herbs are hot and some herbs are cold. So in a functional medical prescription, I extrapolate and superimpose my classical herbal training onto a functional medical prescription so that I know things like, for example, turmeric can be really warm and hot in the body.

So I need to be mindful that the entire prescription for a perimenopausal woman, when she's suffering with night sweats, her prescription is not too hot. Otherwise, the prescription itself, just due to the nature of the herbal product, even if research shows that it's been helpful in certain areas in combination or synergistically with other herbal products, the prescription itself, due to the prescribing techniques and the nuance involved in that, can itself be too hot.
