What We Do

7 Root Causes of Inflammation

We are constantly exposed to 7 types of toxins that impact our health and well-being. Master Mika addresses and resolves these root causes of inflammation with her proprietary treatments.

(1) Environmental and Agricultural Toxins

We are continuously exposed to heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, chlorine, fluoride, household chemicals, micro-plastics, and air pollution — many of which accumulate silently in the body over time. These toxins overwhelm the body’s natural detoxification pathways, triggering a persistent immune response that sustains chronic inflammation throughout the body.

(2) Dietary Toxins

What we eat daily can be a significant source of inflammatory triggers — including pesticides, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), added hormones, preservatives, artificial coloring, additives, fluorides, irradiated produce, and gluten. When the digestive system is repeatedly exposed to these substances, the gut lining becomes compromised — a process commonly known as leaky gut, or intestinal permeability — allowing toxins and undigested particles to enter the bloodstream and activate a persistent immune response that drives chronic inflammation throughout the body and mind.

(3) Pathogenic Toxins / Infections

Bacteria, viruses, fungi, yeast, and parasites are among the most direct triggers of inflammation — the immune system’s natural response to these invaders is inflammatory by design. When infections are acute and resolved, inflammation subsides. However, when pathogens persist undetected — as in chronic bacterial infections, candida overgrowth, or viral reactivation, such as Epstein Barr and long COVID — the immune system remains in a state of continuous activation, sustaining chronic inflammation that conventional testing often fails to identify or address.

(4) Electromagnetic Fields (EMF)

We live in an increasingly saturated electromagnetic environment — surrounded by 5G networks, cell phones, cell towers, Wi-Fi, smart meters, and household electrical devices and networking. Emerging research suggests that chronic exposure to EMF can trigger oxidative stress and disrupt cellular function, activating inflammatory pathways in the body. While research is still ongoing, EMF exposure is increasingly recognized as a potential health risk — contributing to electromagnetic hypersensitivity and unexplained chronic inflammation, with symptoms such as insomnia, restlessness, nervousness, energetic stagnation, fatigue, and anxiety.

(5) Trauma and Repetitive Negative Emotions

Whether consciously or unconsciously, we tend to hold on to negative experiences and emotions from past traumatic or unpleasant events — including fear, anger, grief, pessimism, and hopelessness. These often form the basis of negative belief systems stored in the subconscious mind, quietly controlling our daily conscious thoughts and reactions. The typical pattern is a chronic “fight or flight” response — a sympathetic-dominant mind-body reaction that keeps the nervous system in a state of persistent activation. This dysregulates the body via the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis — the body’s central stress response system — chronically elevating cortisol and inflammatory cytokines, the chemical messengers of inflammation, sustaining systemic inflammation that manifests as both physical symptoms and psychological distress.

(6) Lifestyle and Stress

How we live daily has a profound and cumulative impact on inflammation. Some are simply unaware that their lifestyle contributes to reducing the quality of health, while others may face resistance to change due to excessive, often overwhelming stress, frustration, or exhaustion. Certain lifestyle issues — including lack of physical movement, excessive eating or drinking, and recreational use of substances — create a constant low-grade inflammatory state in the body. Once chronic, habitual lifestyle stress keeps the nervous system and immune system in a state of continuous activation. Over time, this sustained activation depletes the body’s natural homeostasis, accelerating inflammatory conditions across multiple systems simultaneously. Lifestyle is the foundation for health and longevity. Lasting lifestyle transformation begins with self-awareness. When inner consciousness awakens, change follows naturally — without force or resistance.

(7) Spiritual Issues

No matter how content or balanced the physical, emotional, and mental states may be, some feel a lack of fulfillment or void at the deepest level of human experience. It can be described as a lack of meaning, disconnection from one’s true path, or lack of connection to the Divine — a longing that speaks to our relationship with ourselves, our life purpose, and something greater than ourselves. This spiritual dimension is often the most profound and supreme layer of our existence. When it is neglected, fragmented, or unresolved, the entire human system can be affected at the deepest level. Spiritual distress does not remain confined to the soul. It affects the nervous system, the immune system, and the body itself, creating a subtle but persistent inflammatory state that no physical treatment alone can fully resolve. True and lasting healing ultimately requires resolving the spiritual root.
