May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month. In this special section of Natural Awakenings, we highlight local integrative businesses and practitioners that support those living with Lyme disease and related chronic conditions.

Lyme disease is a complex and often misunderstood illness that can cause fatigue, joint pain, neurological symptoms and other long-term health challenges. While Western medicine provides important diagnostic tools and antibiotic treatments, many people find that true healing requires a broader holistic approach.

Across our community, integrative practitioners combine conventional care with supportive modalities such as nutrition, herbal medicine, acupuncture, energy work and mind-body practices. These approaches help address underlying imbalances, support the body’s natural healing capacity and improve overall well-being.

In this special section find local experts working at the forefront of integrative Lyme care will be featured. Their perspectives emphasize treating the whole person rather than the disease alone and they offer insight, support and hope for those navigating their healing journey. Whether newly diagnosed or having lived with Lyme for years, this edition provides resources, education and encouragement to help guide the path forward.
