If you’ve been suffering from poor health, strange symptoms and have been told you tested negative for Lyme, it may be time to take a new look from a provider who specializes in the detection and treatment of Lyme Disease.
Many patients who had tested negative using insensitive standard Lyme tests, test positive on our highly sensitive test!

Our Approach
Learn about the approach we use to help patients recover from Lyme Disease.
Review of Symptoms
Some people will experience a bullseye rash around the site of the tick bite, while others never see a rash at all. In fact, many of the patients we see never recall having the classic bullseye rash and yet test positive for Lyme.
About 25% of people will experience flu-like symptoms which they usually do not associate with being bitten. So, with no clear indicators that a tick bite has occurred, most people go untreated until more serious symptoms begin to prevail.


Surprising Symptoms of Lyme
- Flu-like symptoms – Fever, chills, fatigue, body aches, and a headache.
- Joint pain – Bouts of severe joint pain, stiff neck, swelling, weakness and arthritis may occur, particularly in the knees.
- Unexplained Symptoms – Brain Fog, malaise, fatigue, dizziness, anxiety, mood swings, depression, abdominal pains, nausea, diarrhea, sleep disturbances.
- Neurological problems – Bell’s palsy, weakness, numbness, tingling, shooting pains or burning in different parts of the body or limbs.
Testing – Most Accurate Lyme Disease Test
Many of the patients we see have already been tested and told they didn’t have Lyme disease but continued to suffer from classic Lyme symptoms.
When we re-test these individuals with our extremely sensitive Lyme test, almost all cases are confirmed to be infected with Lyme. This is due to the sensitivity of the Lyme test we use.


The Minkoff Lyme Disease Treatment Protocol
Once a person has been diagnosed a custom program will be developed for them. This may include
- Ozone Therapies (EBOO, HOCATT, etc.)
- IV Therapies
- Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatments
- UVBI (Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation Therapy)
- PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy)
- Immune System Balancing
- Targeted Nutraceuticals
The Road to Recovery
Many patients are surprised to discover they have Lyme Disease. After years of suffering, a positive diagnosis brings relief.
With correct treatment at our clinic, symptoms gradually decrease. As treatment continues, more symptoms subside, and patients begin to regain their old selves, experiencing clearer minds and increased energy.
This transformation is remarkable yet predictable, as we’ve seen many successfully follow this pattern.
