Integrative functional medicine explores the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit wellness and how they contribute to overall health. Conventional medicine primarily focuses on diagnostics, procedures, addressing specific diseases, and prescribing medications. We utilize functional medicine testing to assess imbalances and dysfunction at a deeper level. An integrative functional medicine practitioner might investigate potential nutrient deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, and gut health concerns to target the cause of the main health concern.
Integrative and functional medicine is a healing approach that combines conventional allopathic or western medical treatments with complementary Eastern philosophies and therapies, while also focusing on identifying and addressing the root causes of illness. It emphasizes a holistic view of the patient, considering physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of health. This approach aims to optimize overall well-being and promote the body's natural healing abilities. Some examples of common integrative therapies include: mindfulness, meditation, frequency therapy, biofeedback, massage, ayurveda, nutrition, acupuncture, energy healing, spirituality, lifestyle medicine, reflexology, light therapy, and stress management.
