What is
Functional Medicine
Functional medicine is an approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of disease rather than merely treating symptoms. It is a patient-centered, science-based approach that considers the interactions between genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term health and complex, chronic disease.
Key Principles of Functional Medicine
Individualized Care:
Recognizes that each patient is unique, with distinct genetic makeup, biochemical individuality, and environmental influences.
Treatment plans are tailored specifically to the individual’s needs.
Patient-Centered Approach:
Emphasizes a partnership between the patient and practitioner.
Focuses on the patient’s history, lifestyle, and preferences to develop a comprehensive treatment plan.
Holistic View of the Body:
Considers the body as an interconnected system rather than isolated organs and symptoms.
Examines how various systems within the body interact and contribute to health and disease.
Focus on Root Causes:
Aims to identify and address the underlying causes of disease, which may include nutritional deficiencies, toxins, stress, allergens, genetics, and infections.
Uses advanced diagnostic testing to uncover imbalances and dysfunctions.
Integrative Approach:
Combines conventional medical practices with evidence-based complementary therapies.
May include nutrition and diet modifications, exercise, stress management, supplements, botanical medicines, and detoxification programs.
Prevention and Wellness:
Emphasizes proactive measures to promote health and prevent disease.
Encourages lifestyle changes that support overall well-being and reduce the risk of chronic illness.
