Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired?
Most, if not all, chronic diseases can be improved or even reversed by getting to the root cause of the symptoms you are experiencing.
Functional Medicine strives to achieve just that by using a systems biology-based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of the disease. Each symptom may be one of many contributing factors to an individual’s illness. Functional Medicine can be used to reverse and prevent the damage from conditions such as chronic inflammation, identifying weaknesses in gut health and promoting healing as gut health is the foundation of immunity, mental and physical wellbeing, and different factors that can influence mood such as vitamin deficiency, hormone imbalance, and medications.
You can expect to spend a lot of time with your provider, as a large part of Functional Medicine is exploring your detailed personal and family history, the circumstances around your first symptom, and the experiences you may have had with other healthcare providers.
