Biography
Dr. Filippini received his training in Functional medicine with Functional Medicine University, as well as Apex Energetics and ongoing training with his affiliates. He received his functional neurology training with the Carrick Institute, and continues to train with ongoing seminars and training with other affiliates to keep updated with the most current findings and techniques.
Functional medicine looks for the underlying cause of illness and disease through specialized lab testing to address the patient’s metabolism and neurochemistry. This training allows Dr. Filippini to administer proper nutritional and dietary supplementation to help his patients improve and recover from many disorders naturally, including digestive disorders, parasites, metabolic (i.e. thyroid), *autoimmune, cardiovascular, fibromyalgia, peripheral neuropathy, dysglycemia (hypoglycemia, insulin resistance, diabetes), *cancer support, and many others.
Please note that Dr. Filippini DOES NOT TREAT medical conditions, but addresses the underlying cause of illness and disease to help his patients strengthen their immune system, detoxify systems, and discover the underlying cause of their illness to address and make the necessary lifestyle changes and/or proper nutritional, dietary and supplement support.
*Cancer and Autoimmune conditions can never be “cured” in the sense that the disease process is eliminated, but if the underlying triggers are discovered and removed, the body can control the immune system and reverse the effects. Cancer stem cells are always present, and unless the trigger(s) are removed, it will likely return. Autoimmune conditions are an immune system response to a trigger or antigen. If re-exposed, once the condition is reversed, it WILL return. These conditions are about treating the lifestyle changes necessary to get and keep the patient at their optimal health.
Functional Neurology addresses the breakdown or neurological imbalances of the brain and nervous system by utilizing special techniques to improve the fuel delivery and activation of neurons and their pathways. This is a drug and surgery free procedure that improves neurodegeneration to improve conditions such as balance, dizziness, stroke, “brain fog”, neuropathies, cognitive and many other neurodegenerative disorders.
Between the structural (chiropractic), metabolic, and neurological treatments for disorders of the human body, there are very few disease processes that cannot be helped.
Dr. Filippini is now accepting phone consultations.

Improvement in Stage 4 Chronic Kidney Disease Patient
John Filippini, DC, D.PSc, Danville, CA, October 2018
A patient under the supervision of Dr. John Filippini of Danville, CA sought a solution for her stage 4 Chronic Kidney Disease. On March 22nd the pre-treatment blood work confirmed a GFR of 20, BUN 41 mg/dL and creatinine of 2.57 mg/dL. The recommended Wei Kidney Institute protocol focused on the following aspects: 1) improves the adrenal gland and kidney function, and helps with the kidney’s filtration and balancing of minerals; 2) helps clear inflammation and infection of the kidneys; 3) helps restore the integrity of connective tissue and reduces its inflammation; 4) improves blood cell production including red blood cells by the bone marrow, and 5) improves kidney structure and microcirculations. After being on the Wei Kidney Institute natural herbal protocol for 5 months, blood work showed a GFR of 40, BUN of 22 mg/dL and creatinine of 1.53 mg/dL. At the time of writing the patient is still continuing the protocol under the supervision of Dr. John Filippini.

Successful treatment of Gout and Stage III Chronic Kidney Disease
John Filipinni, DC, P.Dsc, Manteca, California, April 2017
66 y.o. male patient presented to Dr. Filippini with Severe Gout (on crutches from the pain in his feet and ankles) and was in stage III Chronic Kidney Failure. The gout had been flaring up about every 2 weeks since 2014. The pain was so severe that he had to get prednisone injection every time it flared up. But his MD was concerned about giving him too much prednisone due to his Chronic Kidney Failure condition. His kidney function was at 31%. Initial lab work demonstrated uric acid level at 12.80, BUN at 36.00, Creatinine at 2.14 and his GFR at 31. Dr. Filippini worked with the patient for several months using Apex and Premier Research Lab products, along with an intensive detox program. He also utilized Rife technology and PEMF on his swollen joints. These only resulted in temporary relief, with him having to return to his MD for prednisone shots, which calmed his pain down temporarily. The treatment was only able to reduce his uric acid down to 10.5.
On Dec. 14, 2016, Dr. Filippini began working with Wei Kidney Institute Protocols, applying external herbal solutions to the swollen joints, along with internal formulas to improves microcirculation and kidney function, so as to increase nutrient absorption and delivery, and help secrete the uric acid. After the treatment the gout inflammation went down, but switched to another joint. The external treatment was discontinued. After one month of continued treatment, not much change was noted. Dr. Filippini then added herbal treatment to clear inflammation and infection of the kidneys, along with liver support. These were added on 1/12/17. By 1/25/17, the patient reported that his symptoms had resided, but he was still skeptical, because his bouts of inflammation would generally calm down for a few days, and then returned. It turned out that the patient only had a mild flare-up about a week later, the pain was not severe so that he did not require a prednisone shot. The flare-up calmed down after a few days, and had stayed in remission to the date this article was written (Apr 3, 2017).
Follow up lab work was repeated on 3/30/17, and his GFR had increased from 31 to 39 (normal range 90-120); his Creatinine had decreased from 2.14 to 1.77 mg/dL (normal range 0.6-1.2 mg/dL in adult males), his BUN had decreased from 36 to 19 mg/dL (normal range 7-20 mg/dL), and his uric acid had decreased from the beginning 12.8 to 8.6 mg/dL (normal range 2.4-6.0 mg/dL).*
For the first time, the patient has hope, and is continuing on with his care in order to fully restore his kidney function and permanently reverse his Gout.
