wHY DO YOU NEED TO ATTEND A SLiiM DINNER?

This is a great opportunity to build a referral network with the functional healthcare community! Four times a year the St. Louis Institute of Integrative Medicine hosts Dinner & Discussion events for medical professionals only.

Practitioners love to use this time to connect with the health industry pros and share ideas with colleagues over a delicious gluten and dairy free meal. Sip perfectly paired wine while participating in an open discussion forum with like-minded professionals.

SLiiM members are granted FIRST DIBS to attend the dinners! This is a bonus because dinners always SELL OUT! Space permitting, the event is then opened up to all healthcare professionals who are non-members.

The Immune System: The Unifying Lens That Get’s Forgotten

Most providers are trained to think about the body in systems- but are you FIRST looking at your patients conditions through a deeper, unifying lens that connects all of these? That lens is the immune system.

When we begin viewing patients’ chronic conditions through an immune centric lens — whether it’s cardiovascular disease, hormone imbalance, chronic fatigue, or weight resistance —we realize immune dysregulation precedes dysfunction across EVERY system. Inflammation & autoimmunity play central roles in endothelial damage and plaque instability. Hormones out of whack?? Inflammation can block hormonal signaling, therefore creating imbalance. Inflammation is the metabolic brake for those struggling with weight issues — release it, and the body begins responding so weight loss can occur.

Join us for a fun-filled evening of collaboration & organic discussion, in partnership with Cyrex Laboratories. Share modalities & techniques for assessing immune system patterns with like-minded colleagues. Hear how others are recognizing early signs of dysregulation & utilizing targeted interventions that truly move the needle. Leave with practical takeaways you can implement to better support your patients immune function & resilience!
