THE FUNCTIONAL DIFFERENCE

Functional health care is a science-based wellness method that focuses on the body as a whole system rather than a series of isolated parts. This complete body health care model is widely considered to be the way of the future. Functional medicine can prevent and reverse many chronic health conditions that plague our modern society. The patient’s unique biochemistry is the basis for treatment: identifying the parts of the whole that are causing underlying stress. After testing and evaluation, evidence-based methods are used to heal and repair the root cause of imbalance. Functional nutrition is an offshoot of functional medicine and uses the same approach. Every aspect of one's health, diet, and overall lifestyle are considered when forming nutrition recommendations.
