The Two-Pronged Healing Approach of Functional Medicine
To battle chronic health conditions, Functional Medicine uses two scientifically grounded principles:
- Add what’s lacking in the body to nudge its physiology back to a state of optimal functioning.
- Remove anything that impedes the body from moving toward this optimal state of physiology.
Plainly put, your body naturally wants to be healthy. Let us help give you a path to wellness.
Functional Medicine practitioners use:
- Advanced laboratory testing
- Detailed intake
- Comprehensive exam
- Treatment includes:
- Combination of natural agents (supplements, herbs, nutraceuticals and homeopathics)
- Nutritional and lifestyle changes
- Spiritual/emotional counseling
In addition, educating the patient about their condition empowers them to take charge of their own health, ultimately leading to greater success in treatment.
