What is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine approach begins with a comprehensive medical and lifestyle assessment. We listen to your story, identify triggers, and look at the timeline of your symptom history. We may also incorporate specialized tests. Once we put the puzzle pieces together, we come up with a personalized plan that will address many aspects of your life, including nutrition, supplementation, the health of the gut’s microbiome, exercise, physical needs, sleep, stressors, and genetics.
Test, Don’t Guess!
Do you want to understand more about what is going on in your body?
We have access to advanced diagnostic functional medicine testing. Let’s figure out what is going on in your body and come up with actual insights based on testing your health biomarkers, and the latest research.
Why Use Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine doesn’t just alleviate symptoms, it peels back the layers to identify the source of your illness. We look to your body’s symptoms and what systems are out of balance. Everything is connected and that is why we need to look at the whole patient, the whole body.
What to Expect with Functional Medicine.
We listen to your story. We take an in-depth medical history. We look at the potential triggers in your life, genetics and environment. When needed, we arrange for further specialized testing, all to create your customized health plan. Personalized medicine at its best.
