Dr. Johns career trajectory took a sharp turn when in June of 2022 he developed a rapid onset muscle disease that hospitalized him for 6 days and took him out of practice for 9+ months. During that time he sought out the best of the best trying to get answers for what was happening to him.
No one was able to identify what started the disease or give a definitive diagnosis beyond an autoimmune disease attacking the muscle.
He had rapid severe muscle wasting and was unable to open packages or water bottles. He had to rely on a wheelchair for any walking beyond 100 yards and was told he would be fully wheelchair-bound within 5 years. Due to his weakened immune system, he also developed severe mold toxicity in conjunction with the autoimmune disorder. Dr. Johns was finally able to find some doctors who were able to offer some “out of the box” treatments that started making a difference with his fatigue, brain fog, and some small changes in his muscle strength. This started him on a quest to figure out a cure for autoimmunity.
Then one day he tried Intravenous Blood Irradiation and his life changed! Two days after his first session he was at his son’s birthday party and had energy enough to not only bounce on trampolines with his son but throw him and other kids into a ball pit for several minutes. This was when things really turned a corner for both his health and his understanding of immunity.
Dr. Johns has used his experience to develop protocols that changed his autoimmunity, his brain fog, fatigue, and joint pains. With a new lease on life and back to his energy-filled ways Dr. Johns is committed to helping others who suffer from autoimmune diseases, mold toxicity, chronic fatigue, brain fog, and helping people literally reclaim their lives.

Integrative medicine is the unique combination of alternative treatment modalities with traditional treatments to accomplish a deeper level of healing for patients. At Empower Health we define integrative medicine as the use of treatments from all around the world integrated into a full body approach to allow patients to achieve deep healing and true vitality. We are able to get to the root cause through the use of traditional labs, functional labs, electrodiagnostics and body response testing to develop a treatment plan that is unique to your condition and you as a person.
Integrative medicine can be used to treat almost any condition. At Empower Health we focus on toxin induced illnesses such as mold toxicity, Lyme disease, heavy metal toxicity, chronic diseases, autoimmunity, and neurological symptoms.
The most common symptoms we treat are:
We utilize electrodiagnostics such as EEGs (Electro-Encepholograms), Heart Rate Variability testing, Heart Rate Coherence testing, Total body Electrical charge testing to assess for dysfunction in these areas. Much like EKGs are utilized in cardiology to assess heart health, we are able to assess how well different systems are functioning based on their electrical activity. Once we identify areas of dysfunction we are able to target treatments to restore that electrical function and allow the body to self regulate the electricity and thus begin healing. Through the use of vibratory medicine, lasers, biofeedback, homeopathy, neurofeedback we are able to restore proper function.
While our treatments do allow patients to make much faster progress than most available options, every patient is different and we encourage you to view your health as a journey that will continue long after you are discharged. Your health is not a finish line but a continual lifetime of learning what your body needs to achieve optimal health and vitality.
While there are certain supplements that are needed to help patients function better, our protocols are focused on restoring the body’s ability to heal itself. This should require minimal supplements and the majority are focused on ensuring proper nutrition.
Treatment costs vary depending on the intensity of the condition and the rigor of the protocol needed. The initial evaluation is $750 for an hour. The subsequent review of findings visit is $250. This includes WAVI EEG scan, HRV testing, Heart Coherence testing, and bio resonance blood testing.
Additional testing may be utilized through independent labs and traditional laboratories such as Labcorp. Some of these labs accept insurance. All fees for additional testing are paid directly to the lab by the patient. If you have further questions about the cost of modalities please feel free to call our office.
Once your body has undergone significant trauma from mold and mycotoxins the body becomes more sensitive to re-exposures. Sometimes this can be as simple as sitting next to someone who lives in mold. Many patients lose the ability to go into hotels/restaurants/friend’s homes after mold illness. Many are told they have to stay on binders for years and have “lost the ability to detoxify” from mold. Our treatments restore the body’s appropriate response to mold and allow people to resume a normal life after mold exposure.
Dr. Johns is not only passionate about helping people return to their normal lives, but he also has an intimate experience with autoimmunity, mold toxicity, and being told there was no hope. As someone who has walked the road of complex chronic illness and seen the shortcomings of our medical system, Dr. Johns is truly able to understand and empathize with your struggle. Also, he is living proof that you can get your life back and be healthier on the other side of an “incurable disease” than you were before getting sick.
This varies on the treatment plan and the severity of the illness. Treatments can range from 1 hour to 3 hours depending on what modalities a patient gets on a given visit.
Yes. We love treating kiddos and treat many children with PANS, PANDAS, Autism, and Sensory Processing issues.
No as of yet the IV blood irradiation is not FDA approved. It has been practiced safely in Europe and Asia for several decades however unfortunately the FDA still does not recognize its truly life-changing capabilities.
Yes, it has been performed routinely in Europe and Asia for decades with an excellent safety profile. The only side effects noted in many studies are soreness at the injection site, as well as mild flu-like symptoms from bacteria, that die off in patients with high bacterial loads. To decrease the risk of flu-like symptoms we always start patients on a lower dosage and increase it over time.
While you always have autonomy over your health we highly encourage full adherence to your prescribed protocol. We describe treatment as a symphony where all the aspects of treatment build on each other to create a beautiful orchestra. Much like taking away the violins from an orchestra would impact the overall quality so does eliminating one or more modalities to focus on one you may really enjoy.
YES!! We have many success stories of patients returning to normal life who had to wear masks just to be in public for fear of passing someone with hair spray or perfume.
