Lyme Disease Recovery with Ali White of the Tick Chicks

EPISODE 125 |  On this episode of the Neurologic Wellness Podcast, Dr. David Traster sits down with Ali from The Tick Chicks to discuss Lyme disease, tickborne illness, chronic infections, diagnosis challenges, and the often nonlinear journey of healing. Ali shares the story behind The Tick Chicks, created following her Lyme disease diagnosis in 2009 and years of searching for answers. The conversation explores why tickborne illnesses can be difficult to identify, including situations where patients do not recall a tick bite or develop a bullseye rash. Topics include brain retraining, neurofeedback, biofeedback, nutrition, inflammatory foods, nervous system support, immune regulation, environmental factors, mold exposure, and approaches focused on improving overall resilience and function. The episode also highlights the upcoming Global Tickborne Illness Summit, taking place October 8–11, 2026. This content is for educational purposes only and is not medical advice.
