What is Functional Medicine & How Can It Help?

Functional medicine is a personalized, science-backed approach that goes deeper than just treating symptoms. It focuses on finding and fixing the root cause of what’s going on in your body. Instead of viewing each issue on its own, we look at the full picture by considering how your gut, hormones, stress levels, nutrition, and lifestyle all work together.

If you’ve been feeling off but your labs keep coming back "normal," or you’re tired of quick fixes that don’t last, you’re not alone. Functional medicine uses targeted lab testing and a holistic view of your health to uncover what’s really behind symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, mood swings, acne, rashes, hormone imbalances, IBS, autoimmune issues, and more.

We use functional lab work with more sensitive reference ranges to pinpoint imbalances that often get overlooked in conventional testing. Once we understand what’s going on beneath the surface, we create a custom plan designed specifically for you. The goal is to restore balance, support healing, and help you feel like yourself again. In as little as 90 days, you can start to see real changes, even with symptoms that have been around for years.

Discover What’s Driving Your Symptoms

  • Digestion Distress

    Digestive symptoms like bloating, diarrhea, constipation, and acid reflux are signs that something deeper may be going on in the gut. With personalized GI microbiome testing, we can uncover hidden imbalances. This includes screening for parasites, yeast overgrowth, bacterial overgrowth, and pathogens H. pylori, which can all drive inflammation and disrupt digestion.

  • Hormonal Imbalances

    Hormonal imbalances can affect everything from your energy levels to your cycle and your mood. For women, this may look like irregular or missing periods, heavy bleeding, or intense PMS symptoms. For men, it can show up as low motivation, mood swings, brain fog, or changes in libido. Sleep issues, irritability, and feeling “off” are common for both. With advanced hormone testing, we can assess markers like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and cortisol to see how your body is handling stress and daily demands.

  • Skin Conditions

    Skin issues like acne, eczema, psoriasis, hives, and facial flushing are often signs of something deeper happening inside the body. These symptoms can be linked to inflammation, gut imbalances, or even trouble processing histamines. We look at how your gut is functioning, how well your liver is detoxifying, and what might be triggering an immune response. These insights help us understand what your skin is trying to communicate about your internal health.

  • Chronic Fatigue

    Chronic fatigue is more than just the result of burnout. It is the overuse of your body’s vital reserves. Symptoms like being unable to get out of bed, low energy, and feeling like you are dragging your feet to perform daily tasks are signs that your body is running on empty. When we push ourselves too hard without replenishing, it can lead to deep exhaustion that affects not just energy levels but your immune system, mood, and overall well-being.
