Stram Center for Integrative Medicine

06/08/2026

At the Stram Center, our practitioners are trained by the International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society, (ILADS) the foremost scientific and research organization for Lyme disease diagnosis and treatment. In addition, Dr. Stram has trained with Lyme experts in both the United States and Europe to develop his own unique protocols for treatment. Dr. Stram has been diagnosing and treating Lyme and co-infections since 2003 and has the clinical experience for working with more than 15,000 Lyme patients.

Our treatment is based on honoring the interconnection of the whole person, the pathology they are faced with and the multitude of treatment options that are available.

The Stram Center practices medicine in a whole system approach to the care of our patients. Our treatment navigation is guided by listening to our patients tell their unique story.

Why finding a Lyme literate provider is so crucial.

After finding a tick on her knee while eight months pregnant, one woman from Maine spent years dealing with worsening symptoms that were repeatedly dismissed or misdiagnosed. She was finally diagnosed in 2024 with stage four neurological Lyme disease after a long and frustrating search for answers.

Although there are many benefits to GLP-1 medications there can be side effects and understanding them is important when considering these medications. There is a lot of misinformation about GLP-1s — and a lot of confusing information! Talk to a provider that can help guide you on your journey, safely.

The adage “low and slow” is important when managing these medications. Standard dosage, using an autoinjector may seem convenient but will often lead to increased negative side effects as the dosing may be too high for the individual. Using carefully vetted compounding pharmacies with experience in peptides allows for lower starting dosages and slower dosage increases. Utilizing this approach allows for a pace that works for the individual’s goal with less side effects and increased safety.

Incorporating GLP-1 medications requires careful consideration. At the Stram Center we believe in a holistic approach. This means working closely with a provider to help identify and manage root causes, support lifestyle modifications, and routine monitoring of lab work for safety and efficacy. This is further enhanced by regular 1:1 meetings with our registered dietician and mental health support.

These medications offer a helpful tool to individuals struggling with obesity and metabolic dysregulation along with an integrative approach and expert oversight to enhance the natural healing mechanisms for long-term health improvement.

“Devastating”, “Complex”, and “Isolation” are just a few of the words Lyme patients use when asked to describe their patient experiences in one word.

As an organization committed to improving the standard of care, these words power our mission to educate physicians and support patients.

No patient should have to suffer alone.

To all the patients suffering in silence, we see you.
