What is Functional Medicine?

Functional Medicine is a systems biology-based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Each symptom or differential diagnosis may be one of many contributing to an individual’s illness.

For example, depression can be caused by many different factors, including inflammation. Likewise, a cause such as inflammation may lead to a number of different diagnoses, including depression. The precise manifestation of each cause depends on the individual’s genes, environment, and lifestyle, and only treatments that address the right cause will have the lasting benefit beyond symptom suppression.

With functional medicine, we can run unique specialty labs that will uncover hidden causes for the symptoms that are manifesting. The interpretation of these labs will also help us create a personalized protocol including lifestyle changes and natural supplements because after all, not one size fits all.
