What is functional medicine?
Functional medicine is a systems biology-based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Using an integrative approach allows for patients to experience comprehensive healing of mind, body, and spirit.
Patients will experience significant improvement in their overall health and well-being through implementation of comprehensive treatment plans that incorporate the latest in modern medicine as well as natural and alternative treatments. Education about the importance of foundational health principles such as nutrition, sleep, movement, and stress management allows patients to make strides toward reversing chronic health conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and obesity.

- Alzheimer's disease and dementia
- Arthritis
