Learn MoreThyroid disfunction is a common condition. The thyroid gland is often considered the "Master Gland" as it primarily regulates our metabolism, as well as our energy level, which affects all the organs in the body. Thyroid hormone is used by nearly every cell in the body!
Women are five to eight times more likely than men to have a thyroid problem and it is estimated that one in eight will develop a thyroid disorder in her lifetime.
At the same time, it is one of the most frequently MISDIAGNOSED conditions.
Sadly, is estimated that up to 60% of people with thyroid dysfunction are completely unaware of their condition, which means that there are likely MILLIONS of people suffering, yet either being treated incorrectly or not being treated at all.
It is a common story and one we hear EVERYDAY at the Kellman Wellness Center. Many patients come to us after they have been experiencing classic symptoms of thyroid dysfunction like fatigue, brain fog and unexplained weight gain, yet doctor after doctor has told them their thyroid is perfectly fine and there is nothing wrong with them.
Unfortunately, the routine tests used to assess thyroid function are limited and often insufficient for proper diagnosis. These patients fall through the cracks and are being failed by conventional medicine. Are you tired of feeling awful and being offered no answers? Or that your symptom are all in your mind?
What makes the Kellman Wellness Center unique?
Dr. Kellman uses a different test called the TRH Stimulation Test, which can detect low thyroid often missed by normal lab tests.
The TRH Stimulation Test is by far the best way to not only diagnose thyroid conditions, but also monitor treatment and ensure the most effective, as well as the correct type of medication is being used. Most doctors, including functional and holistic practitioners do not use this test. Dr. Kellman has been using this test for many years and it has been a gamechanger for his patients.
Dr. Kellman is an expert in the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid dysfunction. Many of his patients come to him after they have exhausted all other avenues of medical treatment and have been suffering without relief for years, and in many cases are being treated for other conditions related to their symptoms, like depression or chronic fatigue. Yet by not treating the root cause for the symptoms, namely a poor functioning thyroid, these symptoms persist.
Dr. Kellman has treated people from all over the country and all over the world – untold numbers of people have finally been able to be healed, thanks to Dr. Kellman’s unique testing and treatment protocols.

Why is the conventional thyroid testing approach so flawed?
There are two main problems with the routine thyroid testing approach:
Further, symptoms appear well before the thyroid dysfunction is apparent on the routine thyroid panels.
You may only be experiencing a few of these symptoms, yet still be dealing with thyroid dysfunction.

The thyroid gland is a small butterfly shaped gland located in the front part of the next, just under the Adam’s apple. The thyroid gland produces 2 types of thyroid hormone, T4 (thyroxine) which is converted to the more active form, T3 (triiodothyronine).
Main Thyroid Conditions:
The TRH Stimulation Test works in a similar way to a stress test for the heart. Conventional thyroid tests simply assess the circulating levels of various thyroid hormones and other markers in the blood at a point in time. Similar to an EKG, which assess the electrical signals of the heart at rest.
When the thyroid is functioning properly, once circulating levels of thyroid hormone in the blood are dip below a certain level, the pituitary gland releases TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone), which in turn stimulates the thyroid gland to release thyroid hormone. However, in people with a low functioning thyroid, this communication is often impaired, resulting in the pituitary storing excess TSH.
Therefore. like the stress test of the heart, which create a situation where the heart has to work harder to better assess it’s health, the TRH Stimulation Test actually stimulates the pituitary gland to release any stored TSH, rather than just passively assessing circulating levels. High levels of TSH upon stimulation of the pituitary are indicative of a low functioning thyroid.
This results in a much more accurate method of testing, thereby allowing patients, who might have otherwise had their low thyroid function missed, to be properly diagnosed.
