Instructor: Claire Sehinson, MSc
Anxiety is often one of the first symptoms to appear before a patient is diagnosed with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). In this webinar, Claire Sehinson will break down Histamine Intolerance and Mast Cell Activation biochemical pathways and mechanisms, highlighting their overlap and differences with a focus on mental health.
She will explore how these imbalances are intertwined with sex hormone cycles (particularly puberty and perimenopause), the HPA axis (chronic stress), and physical and structural conditions, including hypermobility-Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and leaky gut. Case studies will be used to illustrate HIT/MCAS profiles, review the use and limitations of laboratory testing, and share strategies to support clients from a holistic perspective.
Participants will leave with practical resources, quick reference tables, and charts for immediate use in their clinical practice.
