Key Principles of a

Functional
Medicine
Approach

Healing begins by

Addressing the
Root Cause.

It is less about treating the symptoms and instead about uncovering the factors that are leading to the symptoms.

Test

not Guess

That’s right, a functional medicine approach uses results from your laboratory testing and the latest research to inform healing protocols.

Active participate

in Your
Healing.

In fact, you are the director of it. No one knows yourself better than you do!

Your body is

Designed to Heal.

In fact, often what we view as ‘dis-ease’ is your body’s incredible way of adapting to challenges it’s facing. Your body just needs the right factors in order to heal. Health isn’t just the absence of disease, but health is when all of your body’s systems run so smoothly that you can be your best, energetic self.

Holistic

Health

A functional medicine approach combines traditional Western medicine with alternative healing approaches, giving you the best of both worlds.

Everyone

is Unique.

In fact, there is a complex web of interactions. Internal factors (such as thinking patterns, spiritual health, genetics and physical health) as well as external factors (such as toxins in your environment and social interactions) are all at play.
