What Is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine is an approach to healthcare that treats the individual, not the disease. It is:
Holistic
Functional medicine addresses the whole person. It considers each patient’s physical, mental and emotional health to develop a comprehensive understanding of their overall health and well-being.
Collaborative
Functional medicine specialists work hand-in-hand with patients to understand their health needs, develop a treatment plan that is both realistic and effective, monitor their progress, and make adjustments as needed.
Proactive
Functional medicine is centered around prevention. By focusing on maintaining optimal wellness and identifying and treating early signs of illness, disease or decline, it may prevent major health issues.
Personalized
Functional medicine is patient-centered. Treatment plans are completely customized and may include lifestyle changes, nutritional supplements, stress management, hormone therapy, detoxification and more.
Innovative
Functional medicine takes a science-based approach to health. It incorporates state-of-the-art technology and diagnostic tools to get a full picture of each patient’s current health status and determine how and why disease occurs.
Integrative
Functional medicine incorporates both alternative treatments, such as nutritional support and IV therapy, and more traditional treatments, such as medication and surgery, to develop an individualized plan for each patient.
Functional vs. Conventional Medicine
Conventional medicine focuses on treating the symptoms of a disease to make patients feel better. Often, this relief comes in the form of medication. By its very nature, this type of relief is temporary—it lasts until it’s time for the next dose. Symptoms will return unless and until the underlying cause of the disease is addressed.
Functional medicine, on the other hand, focuses on the patient, not the disease. Treatment plans are developed based on the unique characteristics of each individual patient, including allergies, hormone imbalances, vitamin deficiencies, dietary habits, activity level, family history and exposure to toxins. Functional medicine specialists work to understand how these factors influence the patient’s well-being in order to find long-term solutions for better health.
Functional medicine is not a rejection of conventional medicine but rather an expansion of it. By incorporating the most recent scientific breakthroughs and taking the time to get to know each patient on a deeper level, functional medicine builds on conventional medicine for a true understanding of the patient’s unique needs.
