Helping Your Body Heal from Mold Exposure and CIRS

When mold grows in your environment, it doesn’t just damage walls and furniture—it can impact your body in ways you may not expect. Even after the mold is cleaned from your home or workplace, your body can continue to struggle with the aftereffects. Many people experience lingering fatigue, brain fog, sinus problems, or unexplained pain, only to find out they’re dealing with CIRS (Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome).

At Schneider Clinic, we specialize in identifying and treating the root causes of mold-related illness so you can reclaim your health and energy.

How Mold Affects the Body

Mold produces toxins called mycotoxins, which can overwhelm your immune system and trigger widespread inflammation. In some people, the immune system cannot “turn off” this response, leading to CIRS.

Common Symptoms of Mold Toxicity and CIRS:

• Persistent fatigue or weakness
• Brain fog and memory problems
• Sinus congestion or chronic infections
• Digestive issues and food sensitivities
• Unexplained muscle or joint pain
• Skin rashes or irritation
• Headaches or migraines
• Mood changes, anxiety, or depression

Schneider Clinic & MP Health

At Schneider Clinic, we partner with our sister company, MP Health, to provide a complete approach to mold toxicity and CIRS. Together, we combine the strengths of chiropractic care and functional medicine into a multidisciplinary system of testing and treatment.

Our clinics are proud to serve Elkhart and the surrounding Michiana community, offering patients a trusted and integrated path to healing from mold exposure.

Our Approach to Mold Toxicity

The first step is getting a complete picture of what’s happening inside your body. Instead of guessing, we run tests that give us real answers.

Our Comprehensive Testing Options:

• Comprehensive Revive Bloodwork
  We test all 12 major systems of the body to measure inflammation, immune response, nutrient deficiencies, and overall health impact from mold exposure.

• Nasal Swab Testing
  With a single swab, we can run two important tests:

  • MARCoNS & Bacterial Pathogens: Detects staph infections and other bacteria that often live in mold-affected sinuses.

  • Fungal Culture: Identifies mold species and yeast overgrowth directly in your sinuses.

• Sinus X-Rays
  These images allow us to see if there is inflammation in your sinuses that could trap mold, bacteria, or yeast, causing infections to fester.
  

Our Treatment Options for Mold Toxicity:

Once we have your results, we create a treatment plan designed specifically for your needs. No two patients are alike, so your plan will be tailored to your test results, and recovery goals.

Endonasal Balloon Therapy: 
If sinus X-rays show inflammation or blockages, this gentle procedure can open up the sinus passages and improve airflow, reducing chronic sinus infections.

Mycotoxin & Mold Detox Protocol: 
This program supports your body’s natural ability to safely eliminate mold toxins and reduce the overall burden on your system.

Ozone Insufflation:
Ozone therapy delivers oxygen directly into the sinuses, killing fungus and bacteria that contribute to ongoing inflammation and infection.

Targeted Supplements & Nutraceuticals:
Based on your bloodwork, we recommend natural supplements to correct deficiencies, strengthen your immune system, and speed healing.

Trust Your Gut Program: 
Mold often damages gut health, leading to digestive issues and food sensitivities. This program focuses on repairing and restoring a healthy gut environment.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT): 
In a high-oxygen environment, fungal infections cannot survive. HBOT also helps your body repair damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and restore energy.
