What is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine aims to restore internal harmony and healthy function by identifying and addressing the sources of disease and imbalance. By considering factors such as family history, individual genetics, nutrition, environmental influences, and many other lifestyle considerations, a comprehensive functional medicine plan can help to restore balance in all areas.
As you can see, there are many pieces of the puzzle when creating a functional medicine plan. Unlike Western medicine which often focuses on a single symptom or problem, our functional medicine coach goes deeper in the
exploration process to help you connect the dots for overall wellness. While a traditional doctor might only order a single blood test and then prescribe a medication, our functional medicine practitioner evaluates a broader range of functional tests and will help you determine if other factors might be contributing, such as:
- Stress & sleep concerns
- Lack of exercise or excessive exertion
- Personal relationship concerns
- Family history & genetic variations
- Nutrition habits
- Toxin exposure
- & More
Benefits of Functional Medicine
Whether you are facing mental health concerns, debilitating pain, a chronic disease, or you are hoping to learn healthier lifestyle habits, functional medicine and our illuminating testing can help you develop a more effective relatable wellness plan. By developing a clearer overview with all variables accounted for, we can often transform hopelessness about a condition or disease into noticeable relief, newfound function, and recovery that lasts.
Ultimately, our collaborative guidance and lab tests are designed to give you the power to maintain a healthier foundation for life. Instead of receiving temporary relief from problems without ever addressing the underlying causes, our informative process will empower you to better understand why your health concerns are happening and how you can solve, minimize, or avoid recurring issues.
By approaching your wellness with our comprehensive functional medicine coaching, we can help you:
- Avoid the negative side effects that accompany many artificial and invasive treatment options
- Learn more about your current health conditions and how natural lifestyle adjustments can help you maintain long-term wellness
- Recover from illnesses and resolve conditions that other doctors or specialists have been unable to help you with
- Incorporate environmentally friendly and other beneficial products into your routine to reduce your toxic exposure, support optimal cellular function, and protect your body from future health concerns
While there are never any guarantees with any form of medicine, you can significantly improve the likelihood of finding balanced and sustainable progress with our knowledgeable and data-based insights. Connecting you with clean and natural alternatives is our promise, and until we figure out what works for you, our functional medicine coach will continue to fine-tune the plan until we get it right.
Key Principles of Functional Medicine
All of the benefits above synergize with our client-centric and integrative approach. Before, during, and after we help you implement healthier lifestyle changes, our caring functional medicine coach is here to calibrate and accommodate in any way we can.
Since functional medicine covers such a wide variety of health-related topics, multiple areas of need may be discovered. For example, chronic back pain may be related to multiple sources, such as a nervous system disorder, poor posture, and a nutrient deficiency that is causing malfunction in the musculoskeletal tissues.
In the above example, nutritional testing and other functional lab tests may help reveal these underlying factors. Paired with progressively beneficial changes such as healthy postural changes, a functional exercise plan, and proper dietary adjustments, tangible improvements can emerge.
By incorporating all of these beneficial adjustments, the result is a deeper familiarity with the steps it takes to maintain your positive growth. And if we determine that additional lab testing or an alternative path to wellness is required, we help you navigate every detail. From complete nutritional lab analysis, to revealing genetic lab tests that demonstrate a rare molecular variant, our functional medicine experts transform complex test results into simple information and actionable solutions.
Functional Medicine Can Treat a Variety of Health Conditions
All diseases and dysfunctions have a cause. And, thanks to the latest advances in genetic, nutritional, and functional testing measures, our practitioners can provide hyper-specific lifestyle recommendations and supplementation plans for our clients. This same accuracy extends to identifying risk factors and toxins that need to be avoided or detoxed. We can help you eliminate the likely culprits contributing to unhealthy cellular overload while simultaneously teaching you more about products and choices to help you cleanse and optimize your body’s natural healing abilities.
