Living with an autoimmune disease can feel like your body is waging a war against itself. Perhaps you've experienced the frustration of unpredictable flare-ups, the exhaustion of chronic fatigue, or the pain of inflammation. Maybe you've felt misunderstood by others who can't see your invisible symptoms, or overwhelmed by the complex nature of your condition. At biio, we want you to know: we see your struggle, we understand the complexity of your condition, and we're here to help you navigate your path to better health.
We recognise that autoimmune diseases affect every aspect of your life - from your daily routines and work life to your relationships and emotional well-being. Whether you're dealing with the joint pain of rheumatoid arthritis, the skin manifestations of psoriasis, or the multisystem effects of lupus, our team of autoimmune experts is committed to providing comprehensive, personalised care that addresses all aspects of your health.

Having studied at the Institute of Function Medicine in the USA, our functional medicine practitioners take a root-cause approach to manage and, in many cases, reverse autoimmune diseases. We conduct comprehensive assessments of your gut health, nutrient status, toxic load, and stress levels to identify underlying factors that may be triggering or exacerbating your autoimmune condition. Based on these findings, we develop targeted interventions to address these root causes and support your body's natural healing processes.
Our specialised dietitians work closely with you to develop an anti-inflammatory, nutrient-dense diet tailored to your specific autoimmune condition. This may involve implementing autoimmune protocol (AIP) diets, elimination diets, or other evidence-based nutritional strategies to reduce inflammation, support gut health, and manage symptoms. We also provide guidance on proper supplementation to address any nutritional deficiencies common in autoimmune conditions.
Recognising the crucial role of gut health in autoimmune diseases, we offer comprehensive gut microbiome testing and targeted interventions to heal the gut lining and restore microbial balance. This may include specific probiotics, prebiotics, and gut-healing nutrients to support immune regulation and reduce systemic inflammation.
For those experiencing chronic pain associated with their autoimmune condition, we offer integrative pain management strategies with Pain Medicine Specialists. This may include pain medication management, anti-inflammatory medications, procedural interventions or integrative lifestyle changes.
For suitable candidates, we offer Low-Dose Naltrexone therapy, which has shown promise in modulating the immune system and reducing symptoms in various autoimmune conditions. Our practitioners will assess if this treatment could be beneficial for your specific situation.
Our health coaches work with you to implement sustainable lifestyle changes that support immune health. This includes guidance on sleep optimisation, stress reduction techniques, and appropriate exercise routines tailored to your condition and energy levels.
