Gentle, Whole-Person Support for Hormonal Health in Minneapolis
🌿 When Hormones & Thyroid Feel Out of Control, You’re Not Alone.
You don’t have to push through mood swings, fatigue, or cycle changes alone. Our integrative care team helps you feel seen, supported, and resourced — so you can find balance again.
Feeling Bad is Not Normal. We Can Help.
It’s not normal to feel exhausted, foggy, moody, or out of rhythm day after day — yet so many women are told that what they’re experiencing is “just stress,” “just aging,” or that their labs look “normal.” Deep down, you know something isn’t right.
Thyroid dysfunction, PMS/PMDD, perimenopause, or adrenal fatigue can make you feel like a stranger in your own body. One day you’re wired, the next you’re wiped out. Moods swing, weight shifts without explanation, and brain fog makes even simple tasks harder. When hormones are chaotic, everything feels chaotic.
At Stockheart, we believe your symptoms are signals worth listening to. Our care focuses on uncovering root causes and restoring balance — so you can feel like yourself again.
Why Hormone Health Matters
One in eight women will experience a thyroid disorder in her lifetime — a rate 5–8 times higher than men. Nearly 80% of women will face reproductive hormone imbalance at some point, including PMS/PMDD, perimenopause, or polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Yet these conditions are still underdiagnosed, misunderstood, or treated only at the surface level.
Many of our patients come in with:
💤 Fatigue that lingers even after rest
🌪 Mood swings, anxiety, or irritability that feel out of proportion
🌫 Brain fog and memory issues that disrupt daily life
📉 Irregular cycles — painful periods, heavy bleeding, or skipped months
🔥 Hot flashes, night sweats, or sleep disruption during perimenopause
⚖️ Weight changes that don’t respond to diet or exercise
🌸 Fertility struggles or miscarriage loss
At Stockheart Whole Health in Minneapolis, we take a different approach. Using functional medicine labs, acupuncture, nutrition, and nervous-system care, we look deeper to uncover the root causes of thyroid and hormone issues. Our goal is simple: to help you feel like yourself again — balanced, supported, and resourced.
✨ If you’ve been searching for natural thyroid or hormone support in Minnesota, you’re not alone. Gentle, whole-person care is here for you.
Why This Happens
Hormones are your body’s messengers. They influence energy, metabolism, mood, sleep, and fertility. When they’re out of balance, the effects ripple through every system. Here are some of the most common root causes we see:
🧠 Thyroid Function Changes — Even “borderline” thyroid levels can leave you tired, foggy, or struggling with weight regulation.
🔥 Adrenal Stress & Cortisol Imbalance — Chronic stress keeps your body stuck in fight-or-flight, throwing off sleep, energy, and cycle rhythms.
🌸 Estrogen & Progesterone Shifts — PMS, PMDD, and perimenopause often result from hormone ratios changing, not just from age or stress.
🌿 Nutrient Gaps & Gut Health — Low iron, selenium, iodine, or gut inflammation can quietly disrupt hormone pathways.
💨 Environmental Triggers — Endocrine disruptors from plastics, fragrances, and pesticides can interfere with thyroid and reproductive health.
⚡ Nervous System Overload — When your system is constantly “on,” every hormone is affected — making your body feel unsafe and out of rhythm.
✨ The takeaway: These symptoms are not random, and they’re not “just in your head.” They’re signals your body is asking for balance and deeper support.
How We can Help
At Stockheart, we combine whole-person, trauma-informed care with integrative tools that address both root causes and day-to-day relief. Depending on your needs, your care plan may include:
-
Uncover hidden imbalances and root causes that standard tests often miss.
-
Regulate cycles, reduce pain, and calm the nervous system.
-
Release stored tension and restore balance without forceful adjustments.
-
Stabilize energy, reduce inflammation, and support hormone balance.
-
Practical mind-body tools for resilience and calm.
-
Compassionate support for menstrual health, fertility, perimenopause, and thyroid function.
Why Our Approach Works
Most clinics treat symptoms in isolation. We connect the dots — because your thyroid, hormones, stress, sleep, and emotional wellbeing all interact. By supporting the nervous system and addressing root causes, we create a care plan that’s safe, sustainable, and truly personalized.
Julie, Minneapolis
"After two years of struggling with irregular cycles and feeling hopeless about conceiving, I came to Stockheart. Within months, I not only had more energy and less pain, but I became pregnant naturally. The support I felt here was unlike anywhere else — I was never rushed, always heard, and given tools that worked."
Paula, St. Louis Park
"For the first time, someone looked at my thyroid, my hormones, and my stress all together. I finally feel like myself again."

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
We know choosing the right kind of support can feel overwhelming. These are some of the most common questions we hear from women in Minneapolis who are navigating thyroid, hormone, or fertility challenges.
-
Yes. We regularly support patients with Hashimoto’s, hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and subclinical thyroid issues. Even if your labs are “normal,” we help uncover hidden imbalances and address root causes with functional medicine, nutrition, acupuncture, and nervous system support.
-
Absolutely. Hormonal shifts can cause painful cycles, mood changes, brain fog, and sleep disruption. We use acupuncture, nutrition, and gentle lifestyle tools to ease symptoms and bring your system back into balance.
-
We take a whole-person fertility approach, supporting both partners when needed. Our focus includes cycle tracking, functional medicine labs, acupuncture, stress balance, and nutrition. Many patients find this helps create the best possible foundation for conception and pregnancy.
-
We complement, rather than replace, traditional medical care. Where conventional medicine often focuses on lab results and medication, we look at the whole picture — stress, nutrition, sleep, environment, and nervous system patterns — to help you feel better, not just “in range.”
-
No. Your first visit is a 90-minute consult, and from there we create a personalized plan that fits your needs and budget. Some patients start with just a few sessions; others choose ongoing care. We’ll never pressure you into something that doesn’t feel right.
-
We’ve chosen to remain out-of-network so we can spend the time you truly deserve — instead of being rushed by insurance limits. We do our best to keep rates affordable and accessible:
✅ HSA/FSA funds are welcome
✅ Memberships and care bundles are available
✅ Sliding scale is offered for eligible clients
You may also submit receipts to your insurance company to inquire about out-of-network reimbursement.
-
A: Not necessarily. If you already have imaging, bring it with you — it can be helpful context. But we don’t require imaging before beginning care. If we believe imaging would change your treatment plan or reveal important details, we’ll guide you to the right provider to get it done.
-
A: Absolutely. All our providers are well educated in providing safe and effective care for every body, We specialize in gentle, low-force chiropractic techniques that are safe for fragile bones and sensitive bodies. You’ll never experience high-pressure or forceful adjustments here — instead, we use precise, conservative methods to keep you safe while helping ease pain and improve function.
-
A: Your auto insurance will cover some care if your issue is related to an accident. Otherwise, we have made the decision to remain out of insurance networks so we have the freedom to provide the level of care we feel you deserve. You can inquire with your health insurance plan to learn about out-of-network coverage. We accept HSA/FSA cards, offer memberships and bundles, and provide sliding scale options when appropriate. Holistic pain care shouldn’t be out of reach, and we work to make our services accessible.
"After years of bouncing between doctors and being told everything looked normal, I was exhausted and discouraged. Having someone spend 90 minutes truly listening, connecting the dots, and giving me a clear plan was life-changing. It was the best investment I’ve ever made in my health." — Tasha, Minneapolis

What Our Clients Share
Living with hormone or thyroid symptoms can feel confusing and isolating — especially when you’ve been told everything looks “normal” or that it’s “just stress.” Many of our patients come to Stockheart after years of feeling dismissed, unseen, or unsure where to turn next.
Here’s what they share most often:
They finally feel heard, understood, and supported by a team that looks at the whole picture — not just the lab range.
The Missing Pieces in Traditional Treatment
Your mainstream medical providers are brilliant. They have the best of intentions. But the system isn’t designed to support complex conditions like yours and not all medical providers are aware of options like the ones offered at Stockheart.
And most importantly, conventional approaches often focus on symptom suppression rather than root cause healing:
❌ Band-aid medications that may help temporarily but don't address underlying dysfunction
❌ "It's all in your head" dismissal when tests come back "normal"
❌ One-size-fits-all protocols that don't account for your unique case or multiple paradigms of healing
❌ Rushed appointments that don't allow time to understand your full experience
At Stockheart, we take a different approach. We spend time understanding your unique symptom pattern, your health history, and what special combination of care will facilitate your body’s ability to heal.
🌿 Healthcare Navigation:
You Don’t Have to Do This Alone
Trying to find your way through today’s healthcare system can feel overwhelming. Specialists don’t always talk to each other, options feel scattered, and the burden of coordinating care too often falls on you.
At Stockheart, we believe healing shouldn’t be another full-time job. We help you:
🧭 Understand and prioritize your options — which treatments make the most sense right now, and what can wait.
🌐 Incorporate the full spectrum of healing tools — from chiropractic, acupuncture, and functional medicine to specialists, imaging, or lab testing when needed.
💸 Consider financial realities — we know resources aren’t unlimited, so we help you focus on the options that bring the most value and impact.
🤝 Bridge communication gaps — translating medical jargon, clarifying next steps, and coordinating with other providers when possible.
The result? A clearer path forward. Less stress. And the confidence that you’re making the right decisions for your body, your life, and your resources.
Your Journey to Feeling Better
We know you may have already tried so many things — supplements, medications, diet changes, or endless lab work that still didn’t bring answers. Our approach is different because it’s whole-person, integrative, and trauma-informed. We take the time to connect the dots and honor your body’s natural capacity to heal.
🤝 Thorough Initial Assessment (90 minutes)
We start by listening. You’ll share your full health story — not just lab results — including your symptoms, stress patterns, nutrition, and what has (or hasn’t) worked before.
🔍 Root Cause + Hormone Pattern Investigation
Through a careful history and functional testing when needed, we identify deeper contributors — thyroid shifts, adrenal stress, nutrient depletion, inflammation, or nervous system overload.
🎯 Personalized, Gentle Care Plan
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach. Your plan may include acupuncture, gentle chiropractic, nutrition, herbal or supplement support, and stress regulation — always adapted to your body’s sensitivities and comfort level.
📖 Education & Empowerment
We explain your lab results and patterns in plain language — so you feel informed, not overwhelmed. You’ll leave each visit understanding what’s happening in your body and what you can do to support balance at home.
📈 Ongoing Support & Adjustment
Your hormones shift through life stages, stress, and healing phases — and your care evolves too. We check in regularly, adapt your plan, and celebrate every bit of progress together.
💜 Your healing path is unique, and it doesn’t have to be rushed.
We’re here to help you find steady rhythm again — with care that moves at the pace your body can trust.
Take the Next Step
You don’t have to live at the mercy of unpredictable symptoms.
At Stockheart Whole Health, we offer comprehensive 90-minute assessments where we take time to hear your full story and create a plan that works for your body.
“I’ve never felt so seen by a healthcare team. They didn’t just talk about my lab results — they asked about my life, my stress, and how my symptoms were impacting me. That compassion made all the difference.”
We specialize in treating complex, sensitive, often-overlooked bodies. And we know healing happens best at your own pace.
“I had accepted that I would always feel exhausted and foggy. Within a few months, my cycles were steadier, my energy returned, and I finally feel like myself again.”
