A Functional Medicine Approach to Women’s Health

Your female health problems are a lot like a plant's health. The symptoms you experience—like brain fog or mood swings—have a root cause. There’s something beneath the surface that helps to make you feel this way. 

Most doctors stop at the surface. They hand you a pill bottle to treat your symptoms and send you on your way.

Functional medicine practitioners work to discover and treat what’s beneath the surface— with specific and extensive testing. We help heal the root of your health problems.

Your treatment is specific to you, but there are common areas that must be addressed:

Nutrition and exercise: We encourage a balanced diet with lots of whole foods to give your body the nourishment it needs to heal itself.

Movement is an important aspect of health and longevity. This doesn’t mean you’ve got to spend hours on the treadmill or do Crossfit. We give you advice on how to move in ways that are sustainable, enjoyable, and improve your energy levels.

Your provider may also utilize supplements to help your body get the nutrients it needs for optimal functioning.

We address these aspects of health:

• Structural (your physical body)

• Chemical (diet, hormones, nutrients, allergies)

• Emotional (mental health)

• Social (relationships)

• Spiritual (your purpose, your vision)
