Advanced testing and natural treatment of hypothyroidism in St Louis..

Digestive problems are often overlooked or misdiagnosed for years
What happens when you get to the end of what conventional healthcare can do? When prescriptions keep piling up, your symptoms don’t let up, and no one seems to have satisfactory answers? That’s when you turn to functional medicine.
At Premier Health Care in St. Louis, we don’t believe in masking symptoms. We believe in resolving them. Through extensive testing, natural treatments, lifestyle changes, chiropractic, and a patient-first approach, we help you reclaim your health from the inside out. Our approach is science-backed and safe. Optimal wellness is within reach. We look forward to meeting you.
Imagine waking up without aches and stiffness. Picture yourself going through the day without worrying about bloating, unpredictable digestion, or that frustrating afternoon crash. At Premier Health Care, we believe this isn’t wishful thinking. It’s achievable. Whether you’re dealing with chronic fatigue, pain, or hormonal imbalance, we’ll help you uncover the root causes and build a clear path toward healing.
Your body is speaking to you through symptoms, but those symptoms don’t always have a single, simple cause. Fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, or digestive problems might seem unrelated, but often they’re connected by deeper imbalances in your hormones, immune system, gut, or metabolism. That’s where functional medicine comes in.
Unlike conventional medicine, which often treats symptoms in isolation, functional medicine asks why they’re happening in the first place. We don’t just hand you a prescription and send you on your way. We take the time to understand your full health history, run advanced lab tests, and look for patterns that traditional care often overlooks.
At Premier Health Care, our goal is to uncover the root causes of your symptoms and restore balance through targeted nutrition, lifestyle changes, mind-body support, and natural therapies.
We support blood sugar balance through personalized nutrition, inflammation control, and stress management. Many patients reduce or even eliminate the need for medications by changing how they fuel and care for their bodies.
Whether you’ve been diagnosed with hypothyroidism, Hashimoto’s, or are experiencing unexplained weight gain, fatigue, and brain fog, we offer testing and protocols that go beyond TSH labs and address the full thyroid picture.
From IBS and reflux to leaky gut and food sensitivities, we get to the root of digestive distress with advanced testing and targeted, natural solutions to heal the gut lining, balance the microbiome, and restore function.
Chiropractic isn’t just about the satisfying cracks. It’s about unlocking your body’s ability to heal. Our St. Louis chiropractic services focus on improving spinal alignment and nervous system function, which in turn enhances your body’s communication pathways, boosts mobility, and reduces inflammation.
Our modalities are based on the latest science and research. Curious to know how chiropractic has been validated across studies? Click this link to learn more about new studies.
We treat:
Tension headaches and neck pain are often caused by spinal misalignment. We correct these imbalances to reduce nerve irritation, improve posture, and relieve muscle tightness naturally.
Sciatica causes shooting pain, numbness, or tingling down the leg due to nerve compression. We use targeted adjustments to relieve pressure, traction to promote healing and restore function, and acupuncture to enhance the recovery process.
Whether from injury, poor posture, or wear and tear, back pain responds well to chiropractic care. Adjustments realign the spine, ease nerve pressure, and restore mobility—helping prevent future flare-ups.
Most auto injuries won't heal fully on their own. Severe trauma to the body needs careful, personalized care. Let's work together to restore function and minimize chronic pain.
Cranial facial release is a specialized technique designed to open restricted passages in the head, sinuses, and nasal cavity. By gently balancing pressure within the cranial structures, it can improve breathing, reduce tension, and support overall neurological function.

Medicine was not an option for me. The only way I wanted to heal was naturally. I came to Dr. Branham after researching what his program was about. I had just been diagnosed with hashimotos and knew I had a lot more issues. I was so desperate for someone to actually listen and offer real help. His program saved my life and kept me accountable for my commitment that I was making. His plan is natural, nutrition based and his bedside manner is amazing. Not only have I healed my Hashimotos, but I've healed my gut and many other issues I didn't know I had. My labs are 90% better and I didn't have to make unreasonable sacrifices to get healthy. I can't say enough about Dr. Branham and his staff. They are truly patient oriented.
I've been using Dr.Branham for about 10 years...i was really having problems with my back...he listened and took all the steps to get my back into shape....i saw 7 different chiropractors before and he was the one that fixed the problem. .with routine visits i have never had a problem again....LOVE this office
Has helped many people in my family. I used to personally get bad migraines that I no longer have.
Super greatful to finally find a doctor who is willing to listen and really get to the bottom of things.
I was referred to Dr. Branham by a family friend. At that point I was in a downhill spiral. I was discouraged and desperate because I had been to several doctors and still could not get any help with my hypothyroidism. My weight gain was increasing my chances of heart disease and diabetes. I could not climb the stairs in my house and was thinking I would have to sell my home. I tried everything, diets, exercise, but nothing was working. After doing the program with Dr. Branham I have my energy back. My family cannot believe how active I am now as well as my self esteem and confidence. I sprint up the stairs now. I have lost 85 pounds in seven and a half months. It may sound corny, but Dr. Branham gave me my life back!
I went to Dr Branham because I have had a very difficult time losing weight and I was pre-diabetic. I am SO glad I did. I have been working with him for the last several months and through the very customized plan he prescribed for me and some hard work on my part, I have lost 25lbs so far. However, the most significant changes for me have been the reduction in overall body pain and I am no longer pre-diabetic! Dr. Branham has been straightforward and fair with me. He is quite literally the doctor I have been searching for for the last 20 years. If you are frustrated with your weight-loss journey or tired of other doctors not being able to figure it out for you- (or prescribing meds that simply mask your symptoms) I would HIGHLY recommend you schedule a consultation with him. I'm not a doctor and can't promise a cure- but I know he will be able to honestly tell you if he can help you!
