What is Functional Medicine?

Functional Medicine is a science-based field of healthcare that involves a very detailed health history, consultation, thorough examination, and advanced diagnostic testing. Personalized diet, exercise, supplementation, and lifestyle recommendations are utilized to address underlying causes instead of symptoms for chronic disease and conditions.

Functional Medicine is grounded in the following principles:

• Biochemical individuality
• Patient-centered care
• Dynamic balance of internal and external factors
• Web-like interconnections of physiological factors
• Health as a positive vitality
• Promotion of organ reserve

Some of the challenging conditions that respond well to functional medicine include:

• Coronary Artery Disease
• Fibromyalgia
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome and other gastro-intestinal conditions
• Inflammatory conditions (Crohn’s, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, Ankylosing Spondylitis)

• Weight Loss
