Functional Medicine
At Integrity Functional Medicine, we aim to dive deeper into the cause of the illnesses by asking “how” and “why, instead of diagnosing strictly on symptoms. The core philosophy of Functional Medicine is centered around restoring optimal health by understanding the intricate interaction of factors influencings an individual’s well-being.
Functional Medicine Helps:
- Identify Underlying Factors: Functional medicine seeks to uncover the root causes of chronic diseases, such as dietary imbalances, environmental factors, genetic predispositions, and lifestyle choices.
- Promote Lifestyle Changes: Emphasizing the importance of nutrition, exercise, and stress management, functional medicine empowers individuals to make positive lifestyle changes that contribute to improved health outcomes.
- Personalize Treatment Plans: Each patient is unique, and functional medicine recognizes this individuality. Treatment plans are tailored to the specific needs, preferences, and circumstances of each patient.
Chronic diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovascular conditions, autoimmune disorders, and metabolic syndromes, have become widespread in modern society. The conventional approach to managing these conditions often involves symptom suppression with medication, rather than addressing the underlying factors contributing to the diseases. This approach leads to prolonged treatment, increased healthcare utilization, and a significant financial burden on both individuals and the healthcare system.
