How is Functional Medicine Different?
Functional medicine practitioners seek for the cause of the disease “upstream” taking into account patient’s genetic makeup, physiology and lifestyle factors.
Discovering the root cause
Functional medicine addresses the root cause of health issues, rather than just treating the symptoms. This approach involves a complete and personalized assessment.
Individual treatment plan
By identifying imbalances and dysfunctions in the body, we are able to create personalized treatment plan that address the underlying causes of illness.
Conventional medicine with an individual focus
Combining functional medicine with conventional medical treatments for managing chronic conditions can improve outcomes and reduce the need for medication or surgery. Functional medicine aims to create a patient-practitioner partnership.
Long-term natural pain relief supplements
By identifying areas of imbalance or deficiency, we can recommend lifestyle changes, dietary modifications, and supplements that can help patients optimize their overall health and prevent recurring health issues.
