What is Functional Medicine?
Functional Medicine is an evidence-based approach to help identify the underlying root cause of a symptom rather than just relieving the symptom. It is a patient-centered care that incorporates the best diagnostic tests and tools from conventional medicine to find imbalances that are at the root of all illness. It addresses the whole person and engages both patient and the practitioner in a therapeutic health partnership.
Functional Medicine looks at every individual and considers your unique life experiences and factors including the individual’s genes, environment, and lifestyle. It addresses the root cause rather than symptom suppression, which helps practitioners address the underlying cause of the disease and promote optimal wellness. As a result, a personalized treatment plan is created for each individual based on their health history and health concerns that lead to improved patient outcomes.
With Functional Medicine All 5 major components of your health will be addressed in the wellness evaluation including:
- Cellular Detoxification: We help reduce burden on the gut and liver so that the function of the liver can be restored. We support detoxification pathways in the body by utilizing necessary minerals, vitamins and micronutrients.
- Functional Nutrition: Functional nutrition is science-based and not one size fits all discipline. We all require a tailored approach to nutrition as we are all so different in our genetic make-up, health history, emotional history and lifestyle.
- Fitness: Physical activity is important for long lasting benefits of health. It is an essential part of our approach to wellness.
- Hormonal Imbalances: Hormones play a key role in regulating and control most of our body’s major systems. Hormones are produced by the endocrine glands and have a tremendous affect on bodily processes. Hormones imbalances can wreak havoc on the body’s functions.
- Stress Management: Stress is so common in our modern society and is a root cause of many chronic conditions. We teach and train our patients to adapt to stress better so that they can not only survive but thrive.
In any of our Lifestyle and Wellness Program(s) we will effectively walk you through the program by holding your hand each step of the way, educate you, mentor you, inspire you and motivate you to achieve your health goals so that you too may fulfill your life’s purpose and enjoy the quality of life you were meant to!
