Holistic Approach to Care
What Is Functional Medicine?
At the core of functional medicine is a transformative approach that seeks not just to alleviate symptoms but to address the underlying causes of mental health challenges. This science-based field views every patient as a unique individual, factoring in their genetic makeup, environmental exposures, and lifestyle choices that contribute to their overall health. It's about understanding you as a whole - your history, your biology, and your life story.
Functional medicine stands distinct in its comprehensive and individualized approach to patient care. It goes beyond the traditional disease-centered focus of medical practice to adopt a more patient-centered approach. By shifting the traditional disease-centered focus of medical practice to a more patient-centered approach, functional medicine addresses the whole person, not just an isolated set of symptoms.
