What is Functional Medicine?
Welcome to Advanced Medicine & Wellness –
We offer a holistic approach to healthcare that focuses on addressing the root causes of illness rather than just treating symptoms. Functional medicine is a personalized, patient-centered approach that empowers individuals to achieve optimal health and vitality.
What is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine is a science-based approach to healthcare that looks at the whole person – mind, body, and spirit – to uncover the underlying imbalances contributing to disease.
How Does Functional Medicine Work?
Functional medicine practitioners take the time to listen to their patients' stories, understand their unique health histories, and conduct comprehensive evaluations to identify underlying imbalances. This may involve specialized testing, including advanced lab work and assessments of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Typically treatment plans may include a combination of nutrition and lifestyle modifications, targeted supplementation, stress management techniques, and mind-body therapies.
Why Choose Functional Medicine?
Personalized Care: Functional medicine recognizes that each individual is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to healthcare. Treatment plans are tailored to address each patient's specific needs, preferences, and goals.
Focus on Prevention: By addressing underlying imbalances before they manifest as overt disease, functional medicine emphasizes proactive health promotion and disease prevention.
Empowerment: Functional medicine empowers patients to take an active role in their health and well-being. By educating individuals about the root causes of their health concerns and providing them with the tools they need to make sustainable lifestyle changes, functional medicine helps patients become true partners in their healthcare journey.
Integration of Conventional and Alternative Therapies: Functional medicine integrates the best of both conventional and alternative therapies to provide comprehensive, evidence-based care that addresses the whole person.
