Dr. Mel approaches autoimmune diseases from a holistic perspective. Dr. Mel recognizes that dysfunctional or damaged mitochondria are the root cause of these conditions. Your consultation leads to the design of personalized, multifactorial, and holistic treatment plans. An integral aspect of this approach is employing the Wahls Protocol to optimize cellular health. As a certified Wahls protocol health practitioner, Dr. Mel is the only doctor practicing in the state of Arizona.
At Mitogenesis in Scottsdale, we take a mitochondrial-focused, holistic approach to autoimmune conditions. Guided by the Wahls Protocol and a comprehensive assessment of your history, labs, and lifestyle, we design personalized plans that address terrain, toxin burden, immune dysregulation, and cellular regeneration.
Your program may combine evidence-informed options such as hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), EBOO, peptide and IV support, neural therapy, PEMF, herbal medicine, and nutrition rooted in the Wahls food plan. We coordinate with your conventional specialists—such as rheumatology or neurology—whenever you are receiving standard care, and we prioritize safety screening to determine candidacy and timing.
Our goal is to improve function and quality of life while supporting your body’s innate capacity to heal. If you are exploring integrative options for autoimmune disease, our team will walk you through expectations, safety, and next steps so you can make confident, informed decisions.
Additionally, it regularly integrates various therapies into this protocol, improving the results. These include:
Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system attacks the body's healthy tissues, recognizing them as foreign agents. This process affects various organs and systems, causing different symptoms and complications. The holistic therapy we offer at Mitogenesis seeks comprehensive treatment for these conditions and considers the individual in mind and body. We combine a series of natural and specialized treatments, along with lifestyle changes, to achieve balance and promote healing.
A holistic perspective views autoimmune diseases as systemic imbalances influenced by genetic, environmental, emotional, and lifestyle factors.
Mitochondria, often called cellular power plants—are organelles responsible for generating adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which serves as the main energy currency of the cell. In autoimmune diseases, mitochondria do not function well, causing oxidative stress, inflammation, and problems in the immune system. This leads to a reduction in ATP production, affecting cellular energy and contributing to overall dysfunction. At Mitogenesis, we prioritize the restoration of mitochondrial health as a fundamental component of our holistic approach to autoimmune therapy. For this reason, each plan includes the following:
Understanding that autoimmune diseases can manifest differently in everyone is fundamental. Here at Mitogenesis, we passionately believe that there is no universal solution. Instead, we place immense importance on developing personalized treatment plans that specifically cater to the unique requirements of everyone.
Holistic therapies are beneficial in various autoimmune diseases, including:
It is important to conduct a comprehensive medical analysis to determine the treatment plan and its potential effectiveness.
Natural therapies are a wonderful complement to clinical treatments. Once Dr. Mel designs a personalized treatment plan, it will help modulate the inflammatory response and balance the immune system.

The goal is to restore mitochondrial function and promote cellular regeneration to improve the patient's overall health.
Personalization is key in the holistic treatment of autoimmune diseases. The specific needs of each patient, considering factors such as medical history, lifestyle, and personal preferences, are key to developing the best treatments and combining them with clinical treatments, nutritional interventions, and stress management techniques.
In holistic therapy, a treatment is generated that addresses all the underlying causes of autoimmune diseases. It does not focus only on the symptoms but on people's lifestyles, their overall health, stress levels, daily activities, and others. This type of therapy integrates natural treatments, dietary changes, stress management, and lifestyle modifications to balance the immune system and promote healing.
Holistic approaches can be beneficial for a wide range of autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and sclerosis, among others.
This approach is patient-centered and seeks to identify and treat the root causes of diseases, considering the interactions between genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. In the case of autoimmune diseases, such efforts may include finding specific triggers, improving nutrition, and using natural therapies to adjust the immune system.
