Functional Medicine
Functional medicine is a whole person approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease rather than simply masking symptoms, as conventional medicine does. We address all the underlying causes of health concerns, including a person’s lifestyle, diet, stress management, toxic exposure, and individual genetic markers.
Our bodies are quite adept at repairing themselves, and we use holistic approaches that aid that natural ability. We believe many health challenges are caused by the toxins in our foods. Avoiding manufactured ingredients and pesticides reduces the harmful substances entering our bodies. Replacing them with cleaner, more organically grown food and natural plant remedies aids the body in healing itself and preventing future disease.
Conditions we treat with Our Functional Medicine approach include, but are not limited to:
- Endocrine disorders
- Thyroid and adrenal dysfunction
- Metabolic dysfunction
- Autoimmune conditions
- Unexplained infertility in men and woman
- Hormonal imbalances
- Skin conditions
- Allergies
- Hypertension
- Diabetes
- Complimentary cancer care
- Gastrointestinal disorders
- Mold toxicity
- Parasites
- SIBO
- Candida
Using A Functional Medicine Approach
While our bodies possess the remarkable ability to heal themselves, it’s crucial to understand the underlying causes that can lead to frequent pain and illness and how to restore balance in your body. Genetics, hormone imbalances, nutrient deficiencies, and environmental factors can all pose a threat to our optimal health.
By recognizing these factors, we can empower ourselves to take control of our health challenges. A weakened immune system and poor cellular function can hinder our efforts, but with the proper steps and knowledge, we can strive to enhance our well-being. A functional medicine approach helps us uncover the source of chronic and unexplained symptoms that interfere with optimal wellness. Rather than separate and treat these symptoms, we look at the body as a whole person and focus on healing from the inside out.
What Are the Benefits Of Functional Medicine?
Many people feel discouraged when they can’t seem to recover from chronic fatigue, pain, inflammation, brain fog, or other uncomfortable symptoms. Functional medicine providers near you listen to these symptoms and ask questions about your medical history and lifestyle to deliver a comprehensive approach.
This patient-centered approach, compared to traditional medicine approaches, also provides an in-depth analysis of unique healthcare needs to help us create a personalized treatment plan for your unique health journey.
