FATIGUE
Rediscover Your Energy: Fatigue can stem from a number of root causes, including nutritional deficiencies, sleep disturbances, hormonal imbalances, and chronic stress. Our approach delves deep into these areas, leveraging the functional medicine wheel to identify and address the underlying issues. Through personalized lifestyle adjustments, dietary changes, and targeted interventions, we aim to reignite your vitality, enabling you to live your life with the energy you deserve.
Brain Health (brain fog, ADHD, anxiety, depression)
Clarify Your Mind: Brain health is at the core of our functional wellness journey. Conditions like brain fog, ADHD, anxiety, and depression are signals from your body that something is out of balance. By examining factors such as gut health, inflammation, and nutritional status, we tailor a plan that supports neurocognitive health, helping to clear the fog and enhance focus, calm, and happiness.
Weight Issues
Balance and Wellness: Struggling with weight is not just about calories in versus calories out; it's a complex interplay of metabolism, hormones, gut health, and emotional wellbeing. Our clinic uses the functional medicine approach to uncover these interconnected factors, crafting a holistic strategy focused on sustainable weight management. Together, we'll work towards a balanced body and mind, promoting a healthy weight as a natural byproduct of overall wellness.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Does Functional Medicine Work?
A: Yes! Functional medicine is founded in science. Even though many sources describe it as holistic or alternative medicine, it is science-based. The main difference is that we focus on body systems rather than the traditional medicine approach of treating symptoms.
Q: Do you do virtual appointments?
A: Yes we do, in fact it's the only way we work with patients so we can help people not constrained by local availability.
Q: Will I need to continue seeing my other specialists?
A: Yes, but we work with your specialists as needed.
Q: What conditions are most common among your patients?
A: We help with a variety of conditions. The most common conditions we see are gastrointestinal, autoimmune, hormone, thyroid, fatigue, and brain health.
Q: Is Functional Medicine covered by Insurance?
A: Most health insurance plans do not cover this type of health care. They operate on a ‘Diagnose and Treat’ model where the treatments typically consist of medications to cover the symptom, or surgery. In order to control their costs, insurers generally opt for the most basic labs. The Functional Medicine approach allows for more in-depth, targeted tests. However, in some instances based on your FSA / HSA account, costs may qualify for reimbursement.
