Digestive Issues? We can help! Join us on January 18th!

Belinda McCormick • December 28, 2017

Constipation, diarrhea, bloating, and intestinal/stomach pain are very common symptoms signaling problems within the digestive system.

Did you know that other symptoms of faulty digestion include fatigue, headaches/migraines, eczema, psoriasis, hives, anxiety and sleep disorders?

Join us
Thursday, January 18th, 2018 from 4:30pm - 6:00pm
 as we take a functional tour of the digestive system where we highlight why healing digestion can heal so many other common, chronic conditions.

Spero Wellness Clinic and Anew Wellness are hosting a group session focused on the Pillars of GI Health.
Learn to improve your health starting with better digestion!

The session will begin with check-in at 4:00pm. You will have basic vitals taken by our nurse and Dr. Gering will do a brief 3-5 minute assessment while you fill out a short medical questionnaire.
Beginning at 4:30pm we will show a 30 minute educational video by Dr. Shilpa Saxena followed by an hour of Q & A with Dr. Gering and health coach Kris Greener to talk through what you learned in the presentation and address any questions you may have.
This is such a valuable time to get to talk directly with your healthcare providers while also learning from the experiences of the other participants.

You will leave with the Pillars of GI Patient Handbook that is full of useful information and has practical recommendations to apply what you've learned into your daily life.


The cost is $75 per person for a 90 minute session.

Bone health is more than a DEXA scan. Learn how CTX & P1NP blood tests, peptides, and REMS imaging help track bone loss and response to treatment earlier.

Why "Thick Blood" Isn't the Whole Story

By Dr. Kristie Gering • February 16, 2026
Many people with chronic symptoms are told their labs are “normal,” yet they still feel unwell. One overlooked reason is excess fibrin , a sticky structural protein your body naturally makes to heal injuries. It’s what happens when too much fibrin builds up over time and/or when your body can't break it down fast enough. Think of fibrin like scaffolding In small amounts, fibrin helps healing In excess, it can: Form protective shells (biofilms) around bacteria or viruses Hide infections from antibiotics and the immune system Stiffen blood vessels Interfere with circulation and healing This can help explain why some infections or symptoms never fully go away . Why does fibrin build up? There are two main reasons: 1. Some people make too much fibrin This can be genetic or driven by chronic inflammation (infections, mold exposure, autoimmune conditions). 2. Some people don’t break fibrin down well Their bodies don’t activate the enzymes needed to dissolve excess fibrin. Many people have both problems at once. How this can affect health Excess fibrin has been linked to: Chronic or recurrent infections Long COVID symptoms Brain inflammation (PANS/PANDAS) Fatigue and pain syndromes Pregnancy loss Heart and blood vessel disease Importantly, standard clotting tests often don’t detect this because they’re designed for emergencies, not slow buildup over years. Why treatment must be gentle and personalized Breaking down fibrin too quickly can: Release trapped toxins or microbes Increase inflammation temporarily Make symptoms flare That’s why the goal is balance , not “thinning the blood.” When done correctly, fibrin support: Helps the immune system see hidden infections Improves response to other treatments Supports long-term healing rather than short-term suppression Key Takeaway If you’ve tried “everything” and still feel stuck, the issue may not be what you’re treating - rather w hat’s been blocking your body from clearing it. Excess fibrin may be that missing piece. Action Plan If you think this may apply to you: Request the Hypercoag Reflexive3 Panel (Labcorp Test Code: 505443) Set up an appointment with your provider to discuss the results.

NAD Drip, Chippewa Falls

Feeling tired? Try an NAD Infusion

December 1, 2023
Want help to get ready for the holidays? Having difficulty adjusting to the time change? Consider an NAD Infusion. What are the benefits? NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme that powers metabolic processes and impacts a wide variety of systems including digestion, cognition, mental clarity, aging, and overall energy levels. ​ NAD+ increases our body’s levels of serotonin, a neurotransmitter associated with mood regulation, and can improve symptoms of depression and anxiety. NAD+ plays a role in cell health and in hundreds of cell functions such as DNA repair, circadian rhythm, metabolism, muscle function, tissue repair and cognitive function. Basically, our cells require NAD+ to quickly shuttle around electrons - keeping the cells buzzing with the electricity of life! ​ Who is it for? NAD+ is the premier IV drip for clients who want to see major improvements in brain function, energy level, overcome anxiety and depression, handle acute and chronic stress more effectively, and cope better with PTSD. ​ What's inside? We administer 250mg or 500 mg of NAD+ in an IV drip. (We always start with 250mg the very first time you try it.) ​ How often? For best results, NAD+ may need several sessions depending on personal needs. The number of sessions will be discussed during an initial encounter. The NAD+ IV drip does take longer to receive than any other IV drip. Each session may last from 2.5 to 4 hours, depending on the tolerance. During the infusion, an individual might feel a bit of discomfort compared to standard vitamin drips - described as a bit of a rush through the body, but this is completely normal and can be controlled by how fast the IV is set to drip and stops within a minute or two after the drip ends. ​ Our NAD+ drip can be followed by Glutathione -"Master Antioxidant " - for best results. Fall 2023 Special - 250mg is $250 and 500mg is $350. Glutathione 1g added on after the infusion is $35.00.
