Terrain Assessment and Taper
Is this medication still doing anything for me? Let's find out.
The Terrain Assessment
We read your terrain. Your nervous system, read electrically from your heart rhythm over three mornings and your heart rate and blood pressure lying and standing. What your cells are short of: omega-3 index, red cell magnesium, methylmalonic acid and homocysteine, ferritin, vitamin D. Your blood sugar, insulin, inflammation, thyroid and hormones. Your glyphosate level. A DNA test that shows how your body processes your medication. Then 90 minutes with Dr. King and a written Terrain Report in plain language that is yours to keep. $2,500, credited in full to the Week if you book within 90 days. Open to anyone, by telehealth in twelve states or in person on the Kohala Coast.
We repeat the heart rhythm, cell markers, glyphosate and questionnaires at the end of the Week and at 90 days, so you see your own before and after.
Flat fees. Lodging and travel separate. We bill no insurance and receive nothing from any hotel, laboratory or device maker.
The Taper
Ninety days of physician-led, slow, written medication reduction, with visits every two weeks and portal messaging in between, heart rhythm and sleep tracked, and a hand-off letter at the end. Available by telehealth in Hawaiʻi, Washington, Colorado, Texas, Florida, Illinois, Nebraska, Missouri, Louisiana, Nevada, Wisconsin and Montana. $3,500. Every taper begins with a Terrain Assessment. Nothing is stopped abruptly, and nothing is changed without a written plan. Medication changes are clinical decisions made on standard criteria, at your pace, with monitoring; no device, diet or supplement is used as a tool to come off medication.

Why slow
Coming off a psychiatric medication slowly, with support, holds up as well as staying on it for many people; coming off fast does not. The body adapts to a medication over months, and it needs months to adapt to its absence. That is the whole reason this is ninety days and not a week.
