• About Autoimmune Disease •
What Is Autoimmune Disease?
Autoimmune disease refers to a group of conditions where the immune system becomes misdirected and attacks the body’s own tissues. That immune activity can create persistent inflammation and symptoms that show up in the joints, thyroid, gut, skin, nerves, or multiple systems at once.
Some people have a clear diagnosis early. Others cycle through vague symptoms like brain fog, body aches, digestive discomfort, or recurrent fatigue before the pattern becomes obvious. In either case, the goal is not to chase every new symptom. The goal is to understand your immune triggers, reduce inflammatory burden, and support steadier function over time.
Common Causes of Autoimmune Diseases
• CAUSES •
Autoimmune conditions are rarely tied to one single cause. In many cases, genetics sets the stage, and life events, exposures, and long-term stressors shape how symptoms unfold. A careful history plus targeted testing helps clarify what matters most for you.
Genetics and Family History
When inflammation stays elevated, tissues can become more reactive and less resilient. Over time, joint wear, disc changes, or tendon irritation may contribute to ongoing stiffness and flare-ups. This is where chronic pain therapy for inflammation and degeneration can be part of a broader, structured plan.
Post‒Infection Immune Activation
Some patients notice autoimmune symptoms after a viral or bacterial illness. The immune system can stay reactive longer than it should, which may contribute to recurring flares or ongoing inflammation.
Thyroid and Hormone Shifts
Thyroid dysfunction and hormone changes can influence immune signaling, metabolism, and energy. For patients looking for a Hashimoto’s doctor or support for autoimmune-related thyroid patterns, testing helps clarify whether thyroid antibodies or hormone imbalance may be part of the picture.
Gut Barrier and Digestive Imbalances
Gut irritation, food sensitivities, and microbiome disruption can affect how the immune system responds. When the gut barrier is compromised, immune activity can stay elevated, and inflammation can spread beyond digestion.
Environmental Burden
Mold, heavy metals, and other environmental stressors can place extra pressure on detox pathways, which may worsen inflammation in susceptible individuals.

What Symptoms Does Autoimmune Disease Cause?
Autoimmune symptoms vary widely, but many patients describe a mix of flare days and better days that never fully feel normal. A clinical evaluation is especially useful when symptoms persist, keep returning, or involve more than one system.
Some symptoms that may benefit from an evaluation include:
Ongoing fatigue that does not improve with rest.
Joint pain, stiffness, or swelling.
Muscle aches, weakness, or heaviness.
Digestive issues such as bloating, cramping, constipation, or loose stools.
Skin rashes, itching, or sensitivity changes.
Brain fog, trouble concentrating, or memory lapses.
Headaches or a wired-but-tired feeling.
Numbness, tingling, or burning sensations.
Temperature sensitivity or feeling run down more easily than before.

What Are the Treatment Options for Autoimmune Disease?
New Era Medical builds personalized programs based on labs, clinical context, and your symptom pattern. If you are looking for integrative autoimmune disease treatment, your plan focuses on immune balance and steady day-to-day function.
Your plan may include a combination of these services, chosen for fit, tolerance, and goals.
Nutrition Therapy
A steady nutrition foundation can support immune regulation by addressing nutrient status, metabolic balance, and inflammatory load. With nutrition therapy, recommendations are based on your labs and symptom pattern, not a generic autoimmune diet.
Vitamin Infusions
When fatigue is high or absorption is a concern, direct nutrient delivery may be helpful. Vitamin infusions provide fluids and targeted nutrients through the bloodstream, often used during flare-prone or high-stress periods.
Ozone Therapy
In select cases, immune and inflammation patterns suggest benefit from additional supportive therapies. Ozone therapy may be included as part of an integrative plan, with clear guidance on why it is being used and how it fits your program.
EBOO Therapy
Some patients need deeper support for resilience and detox pathway strain. EBOO therapy may be considered in detoxification-focused programs, depending on your history, current health status, and lab findings.
Kaqun Oxygen Bath
A Kaqun oxygen bath may be included for patients who benefit from oxygen-based recovery support within a supervised, structured program. Your provider will help determine whether it fits your goals and tolerance.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)
HBOT increases oxygen availability and may support recovery capacity in certain chronic patterns. It may be considered when autoimmune symptoms overlap with tissue stress, slow recovery, or inflammation-related fatigue.
Hydrogen Therapy
Hydrogen therapy may be included in certain programs focused on oxidative stress and recovery support. Whether it fits depends on your symptom pattern, medical history, and overall plan.
Red Light Therapy
Cellular recovery support often matters when inflammation and tissue sensitivity are ongoing. Red light therapy is commonly used as a supportive add-on while foundational factors like nutrition and immune balance are being addressed.

Frequently Asked Questions
What conditions are considered autoimmune diseases?
Conditions considered autoimmune diseases include diagnoses where the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, leading to chronic inflammation. Common examples include lupus, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel diseases, and some forms of autoimmune neuropathy. A clinician can help clarify whether your symptoms match an autoimmune pattern and what testing may be appropriate.
Can autoimmune disease be treated without long-term immunosuppressants?
Autoimmune disease can sometimes be supported without long-term immunosuppressants, depending on the diagnosis, severity, and risk level of active inflammation. Many patients still need medication, and stopping it without medical guidance can be unsafe. Integrative care may be used alongside specialist management to support immune balance, reduce inflammatory burden, and improve daily function.
How is integrative autoimmune treatment different from standard care?
Integrative autoimmune treatment is different from standard care because it combines symptom management with a deeper look at contributors such as nutrient status, metabolic patterns, gut health, environmental burden, and recovery capacity. Standard care often centers on diagnosis and medication planning, which can be essential.
Can autoimmune treatment help with fatigue and chronic inflammation?
Autoimmune treatment can help with fatigue and chronic inflammation when the plan targets the specific factors keeping the immune system activated. Many patients notice steadier energy as nutrient gaps, metabolic instability, and sleep disruption are addressed, and as supportive therapies are chosen based on labs. Progress is usually gradual, but it can be meaningful when care matches the underlying pattern.
