Have you gone to doctors with a health condition and have had little to no improvement? Have you done bloodwork or diagnostic imaging and told everything is “normal”? Have you been given one or more prescription drugs that don’t work or cause other problems? Functional medicine is an individualized root cause medicine approach to healthcare. It considers factors like diet, genetics, environment, toxicity, hormonal changes, and other lifestyle components as potential causes and treatments for health challenges. Functional medicine uses in-depth bloodwork and specialty lab testing often not used by your conventional physician to get at the root cause. Functional Medicine also focuses on optimal lab values, which are more narrow than the standard lab values used in conventional medicine. Anything outside of those optimal values can show patterns and markers that spot trends toward disease. By catching these markers early on, functional medicine practitioners have a chance at reversing or stopping disease progression altogether.
