Health through a Root Cause Total Load Lens for Adults and Kids with Dr. Heather Tallman Ruhm and Pamela Wirth

DR. HEATHER TALLMAN RUHM is a Board-Certified Family Physician who focuses on whole-
person health and patient education. She draws on her conventional western training along
with insights and skills from functional, integrative, bioregulatory and energy medicine
practices. She believes in the innate healing capacities of the human body and supports the
power of self-regulation to help her patients recover and access vitality. Dr. Tallman Ruhm was
born and raised in Montana. She graduated from Montana State University with a BA in Human
Sciences and later the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard where she received her
Master's in Public Policy. She attained her MD degree from the University of New Mexico
School of Medicine and completed her Family Medicine Residency in Colorado and Alabama.
She has practiced integrative medicine for over two decades, primarily in New Hampshire, but
started this path at the Whitaker Wellness Institute in California. She was also a college
professor for over a decade.

Alongside her part-time clinical practice, Dr. Tallman Ruhm currently enjoys research and public
speaking in her role as Medical Director for the Documenting Hope Project which sets out to
help children heal from chronic illness through two IRB approved studies that focus on Total
Load in children. Epidemic Answers, the sponsoring Non-Profit for this important research,
provides a vast library of resources to parents and health practitioners which includes practical
tools for restoring and maintaining health, vitality and resilience in all children. Resources
available through Epidemic Answers and the Documenting Hope Project include, a Healing
Together membership community for parents, an extensive library spanning over a decade,
with webinars as well as diagnosis based actionable checklists for parents to use to help their
children heal from root causes while lowering total load.

While caring for herself and others, Dr. Tallman Ruhm keeps total load and foundational
supports at the forefront - which includes everything from the importance of food, sleep and
fresh air to movement and nature, creativity and the exploration of new forms of
communication.
