I’m excited to bring you today’s guest, Maria Rickert Hong. In the last episode we spoke with a mom who found resolutions for her sons’ autism, and PANS/PANDAS. Today’s guest, Maria, also helped guide her sons out of multiple health struggles.
Long story short, early on, one of her sons showed signs of sensory processing disorder, digestive issues, developmental delays and other health concerns. After they weren’t finding answers in conventional medicine, she turned to a naturopath and a variety of practitioners for help.
By finding and addressing the causes behind her son’s health issues, they were able to turn them around.
In my talk with Maria, you’ll hear…
The mix of health struggles, including sensory processing disorder, that led Maria to describe her son’s condition as “almost autism”
Her own health issues and how she believes they were linked to her son’s struggles
The specific therapies and practitioners that helped Maria and her son
Why she removed her mercury dental fillings
The diet changes that improved many of her son’s symptoms
The link between developmental delays and what’s called retained primitive reflexes
How their family addressed Lyme disease and PANS/PANDAS
Why you have to do your own research and be your own and your child’s advocate
And how all this inspired Maria to leave Wall St to become a health practitioner

Before we play this episode, I want to make it very clear that – as always at Rebuilding My Health - this was one person’s health experience of long-haul and also of what she’s seen in some of her clients. It’s not intended to help treat the virus or long-haul but to offer some insight into what worked for someone else. Everyone is different so talk with your health practitioner about your own case.
