As a former Functional Medicine Practitioner of 18 years, Amie’s view of root-cause medicine was forever altered as a result of an environmentally acquired illness.In 2017, after developing Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS), she discovered the world of building biology and the various ways in which the built environment has a profound impact on human health.
