What is Functional Medicine ?

Functional Medicine (FM) plays a key role in chronic disease management by identifying the root causes of disease through a personalized therapeutic approach. In order to unravel the complex layers  of disease functional medicine employs a multifaceted approach. Through interventions aiming to restore balance to specific system dysfunction, functional medicine creates a model of practice that uses science-based therapies that includes functional nutrition and lifestyle modifications to eliminate environmental triggers to optimize your innate immunity while maintaining a healthy mind and body.

Functional Medicine is used in conjunction with conventional medicine to bridge the gaps in the evolving complexity of chronic diseases by facilitating a more comprehensive approach to disease management and prevention. We treat a wide range of conditions including autoimmune diseases, diabetes, chronic fatigue, heart disease, metabolic syndrome, anxiety/depression, hormone disorders, digestive disorders and many more. We recognize the importance of lifestyle factors on health and wellness. As part of the Functional Medicine comprehensive plan, we provide various prescriptions for mindfulness and stress management techniques to improve the mind-body connection.
