A Functional Medicine Doctor determines how and why illness occurs and restores health by addressing the root causes of disease for each individual. Traditional medicine is the mainstream medicine. An Integrative medicine doctor is a fusion of two of the above.
Integrated medicine, also known as integrative medicine, is a holistic approach to healthcare that combines conventional medicine with complementary and alternative therapies. Both you and the Functional Medicine practitioner agree to be equal partners in meeting your health goals. Both of you will then create a healthcare plan, set expectations, and learn which lifestyle modifications will help achieve your goals. Finally, it will be time to implement the plan in action, with regular check-ins and revisions where necessary. Your functional medicine physician will incorporate other entities like acupuncture, yoga, meditation, nutrition, exercise and western medicine as necessary.
Functional medicine practitioner spends a lot more time with you than a conventional provider. You can also expect to do a lot of talking, as a large part of functional medicine is exploring your detailed personal and family history, the circumstances around your first symptoms, and the experiences you may have had with other healthcare providers. Through this systematic method functional medicine practitioners uncover the underlying causes of your health problems through careful history taking, physical examination, and laboratory testing.
By investing this time and effort up front, many people find that working with a functional medicine provider helps them get to the bottom of perplexing problems that have eluded other clinicians for years.
Functional nutrition therapy is an evidence-based, comprehensive case-centric approach to nutrition care that can significantly improve patient outcomes. This emerging medical nutrition model combines modern science, clinical wisdom, and critical thinking.
The primary drivers of the chronic disease epidemic are the daily interactions among an individual’s genetics, environment, and lifestyle choices. Functional Medicine addresses these underlying causes of disease and equips healthcare practitioners to help their patients manage this complex, interconnected web of chronic disease like autoimmune conditions, diabetes, obesity, Hashimoto, PCOS, infertility, thyroid conditions, belly fast, anxiety, sleep disorders to name a few.
Some common functional medicine treatments include dietary and lifestyle modifications, nutritional supplements, stress management techniques, detoxification protocols, and mind-body therapies. These interventions are designed to support the body’s natural healing processes and promote optimal health.
