WHAT IS FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE?
The Functional Medicine model is an individualized, client-centered, science-based approach that empowers clients and practitioners to work together to address the underlying causes of disease and promote optimal wellness. It requires a detailed understanding of each client’s genetic, biochemical, and lifestyle factors and leverages that data to direct personalized treatment plans that improve client outcomes.
​
If you’ve been eating a clean diet, you eliminated trigger foods, you’re using our non-toxic skin products, and your self-care is on track, and yet your skin is still “acting up,” we need to look even more profoundly.
​
Fortunately, our access to specialty testing and deep understanding of the interconnectedness of these values can help us pinpoint the root cause of your skin imbalance.
Our goal is to help each client understand what is unique in the way of their skin goals & optimal wellness using education, inspiration, and empowerment.
Who Benefits From the Functional Approach?
​
Do you struggle with chronic skin conditions (acne, rosacea, eczema, melasma), hair loss, stubborn weight gain, digestive issues, or persistent allergies? Maybe you are struggling with multiple symptoms that are unexplained or have several autoimmune conditions and you don’t feel heard by other providers. Or perhaps you feel decent but want to optimize your health, peak your performance, and prevent conditions in the future.
​
No matter where you are in life, the functional medicine approach is for you, and we would love to work with you.
​
​We will commit to getting to the root cause of your symptoms by doing a thorough health history, listening to your story, and ordering appropriate labs. Based on all of those findings, we will develop an individualized treatment protocol for your lifestyle, nutritional needs, genetics, and underlying conditions.
