What is Functional Medicine

The main goal of Functional Medicine is to address the root cause of disease. Emphasis is also placed on prevention, which can save you from various health problems in the foreseeable future.

Functional Medicine is particularly beneficial for individuals with complex chronic diseases. The body comprises many systems and functions that are affected by chronic diseases. In Functional Medicine, practitioners can make connections between seemingly unrelated symptoms.

Another key aspect of Functional Medicine is that it takes the environment around you into consideration. It’s worth noting that Traditional Medicine does not usually account for the environment. However, the people, places, and things that surround us daily have a significant impact on our health.

Why do we need Functional Medicine

By shifting the traditional disease-centered focus of medical practice to a more patient-centered approach, Functional Medicine addresses the whole person, not just an isolated set of symptoms.

In this way, Functional Medicine supports a unique expression of health and vitality for each individual.

Our society is experiencing a sharp increase in the number of people who suffer from complex chronic diseases

The system of medicine practiced by most specialists is oriented towards acute care

how it works

How Functional Medicine works

The diagnostic methods of Functional Medicine entails an examination of all body systems. Specialists examine each system in the context of your lifestyle and environment. The goal is to identify the underlying cause(s) of dysfunction or disease.

Functional Medicine views the various organs and systems of the body as part of a larger context, allowing doctors to identify the root causes of diseases. With timely and high-quality diagnosis, it is often possible to interrupt and sometimes reverse the progression of disease.
