Mold exposure treatment refers to the medical and holistic interventions designed to alleviate the symptoms and health issues caused by exposure to mold. Mold can release spores and mycotoxins that, when inhaled or ingested, can lead to a variety of health problems. Treatment typically involves a combination of medical therapies, environmental modifications, and lifestyle changes to reduce exposure and manage symptoms.
Mold exposure can lead to respiratory issues such as asthma, chronic sinusitis, and bronchitis. Effective treatment can alleviate these symptoms, allowing you to breathe easier and reduce the frequency of respiratory infections.
Enhanced Immune FunctionChronic exposure to mold can weaken the immune system, making you more susceptible to infections and other illnesses. Treatment can help bolster your immune system, improving your overall health and resilience.
Better Quality of LifePersistent mold exposure can lead to fatigue, headaches, and cognitive issues. Addressing these symptoms through treatment can enhance your daily functioning and overall quality of life.
Reduced Allergy SymptomsMold is a common allergen that can cause symptoms like sneezing, itching, and watery eyes. Treatment can help reduce these allergic reactions, providing relief from discomfort.
If you suffer from chronic respiratory conditions such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), mold exposure treatment can be particularly beneficial.
Those with weakened immune systems, including the elderly, young children, and individuals with autoimmune diseases, can benefit significantly from mold exposure treatment.
Individuals who experience persistent allergy symptoms, especially those that worsen in damp or mold-prone environments, should consider mold exposure treatment.
Living in a humid climate like Montecito increases the risk of mold growth in homes. Homeowners who notice mold growth or experience symptoms of mold exposure should seek treatment.

Liz started doing personal blood draws after her son, Dashiell, was born with Zellwegers disease. His diagnosis required numerous blood draws and drug levels throughout his life. After sitting through long wait times at the labs followed by watching many different phlebotomists, many new to the job, struggle to find his veins, often poking him multiple times, as a seasoned phlebotomist, Liz decided to draw his blood at home and hand deliver it to the lab myself. Soon after she began doing personal touch blood draws so she can now offer that same personalized service to you.
Liz graduated from Pepperdine University with a degree in Biology in 1994. She moved to Santa Barbara and earned her phlebotomy certificate in 1995. Liz began working at St. Francis Medical Center in the Physical Therapy Department and quickly transferred to the Laboratory. Perfecting her venipuncture techniques on all floors of the hospital, including post-operative patients, pregnant women going into labor, sick or premature babies, and emergency room patrons, she then improved her patient care skills working for internal medicine doctors, one of whom was the Medical Director of Hospice and won Doctor of the Year. In 1999, Liz started working with a group of local retinal surgeons. Her primary job consisted of injecting dye into arm veins and photographing its flow through the patients retinal vessels. When patients are worried about their diagnosis or apprehensive about the procedure because of difficult veins, her quick, almost pain free needle stick and kind but professional bed side manner would put them at ease.
The various settings and patients Liz has encountered over the years have enabled her to become very skilled at finding the smallest and most fragile of vessels. Her specialities include infants and the elderly, diabetics of all ages, patients with rolling veins, on blood thinners or chemotherapy. She lives in downtown Santa Barbara, travels from Goleta to Carpintera and brings all the necessary supplies directly to you. All she needs from you is a lab request and your home or office becomes an instant draw station. Appointment times are very flexible, and she is friendly, reliable and punctual. Be kind to your arm and treat yourself to the luxury blood draw you deserve!!!

“After I shifted the focus of my practice from Sports Medicine into Nuclear Medicine specifically Interventional Endocrinology. I found myself questioning our western medical paradigm…Here I was performing thyroid cancer and Hyperthyroidism treatments with harmful radical thyroid radioactive ablations which really made me take a hard look in the mirror and become more of a researcher to find safer and more effective options to better treat my clients. During my research I realized that there were very few, if any, medically directed programs focused towards achieving a “Healthier Lifestyle” rather than typical “Diet” fads.” A few years later after training and working with some of the worlds foremost Bio-identical Hormone Replacement specialists I became Board Certified in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine. Sort of just found my passion and the answers I had been looking for with this new specialty finally after years of treating people with the Band-Aid “fix it when its broken” mentality instead of at the root cause.”
Mike has spent the last 10 years in Anti-Aging, Functional and Regenerative Medicine. He has trained over 120 physicians in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine and consulting for their practices. Today his vision is a reality, and clients from all of the world come to benefit from the successful programs that have been established at Age Management Institute Santa Barbara. He firmly believes in educating the patient about the importance of good nutrition, hormone balance, stress management, and regular exercise is the key to aging well and having a high quality of life well into your golden years.
