Functional Medicine is “root cause” medicine. Functional medicine is a personalized, individualized medicine that considers how your genetics, environment and lifestyle cause of the symptoms in your body. We use your history and story to heal the root cause of your symptoms.
Functional medicine differs from traditional medicine which focuses on symptom suppression as a treatment model. For example, if one is suffering heartburn, traditional medicine prescribes drugs to minimize or mask the discomfort of heartburn. Functional medicine investigates why the person has heartburn then address the root cause to alleviate the suffering.
