What Is Functional and Integrative Medicine?

Integrative medicine focuses on using a combination of lifestyle modification, nutritional counseling, and therapies to treat the whole person. It uses an evidence-based approach to improve your overall health and wellness. Our experienced professionals will consider you an equal partner in your healing process and maintain a collaborative approach towards care and services.

Functional medicine takes a biology-based approach to health and wellness to identify and address the root cause of the illness, disease, and symptoms. A diagnosis can include more than one cause, and a cause can have multiple symptoms. Functional medicine practitioners take an individualized approach to patient care and focus on collaborative, holistic healthcare.
