and moving more", and how identifying and correcting them will permanently charge your metabolism, increase your energy and improve mental clarity so you can reclaim the life you love! Register for this free webinar at DrLauraKorman.com. 

           Dr. Laura Korman, owner of Korman Relief & Wellness Center in Port Charlotte, believes that one’s health destiny can be changed with lifestyle strategies and functional medicine. She has helped patients eliminate chronic pain, inflammation, fatigue and unwanted body fat for over 30 years. While practicing as a chiropractic physician, Dr. Korman completed a 300-hour post-doctorate degree in nutrition from the American Clinical Board of Nutrition, and she remains one of only 302 doctors nationwide with this specialty.   

Her practice has also been voted Port Charlotte’s “Number One Preventative Health Facility.” Dr. Korman understands that most patients first need a doctor to just listen to their stories and understand their health struggles. She considers herself a root cause health detective, and always delves into why a patient is experiencing symptoms, versus just suppressing or covering those symptoms with medication.  

After taking an extensive history, Dr. Korman looks at typical blood tests through the lens of a functional medicine practitioner which helps to identify core metabolic dysfunction. She then recommends additional blood chemistry and other specific functional tests to locate root cause of a patient's unresolved symptoms.  

Dr. Korman also offers a metabolic reset program, which she developed, called GEARED2bewell. This program helps eliminate unwanted fat, fatigue and chronic pain. She also provides numerous cellular regenerative therapies including a class IV laser, Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy, and Infrared Sauna to aid in repairing damaged tissue naturally through specific light and magnetic frequencies that decrease inflammation, increase blood flow and improve mitochondrial function.
