EXPLOREFAQs
How Is Functional Medicine Different from Conventional Medicine?
Functional medicine differs from conventional medicine by focusing on the root causes of health issues rather than just treating symptoms. It takes a personalized, patient-centered approach, considering genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors, and emphasizes prevention and holistic wellness. Unlike conventional medicine, which often uses a standardized approach with synthetic medications and surgeries, functional medicine develops individualized treatment plans that may include dietary changes, lifestyle modifications, and stress management to promote long-term health and vitality.
Why did you shift from Conventional Medicine to Functional Medicine?
In conventional medicine, I felt limited in how I could help my patients. I believed in holistic approaches and the power of lifestyle changes, but I needed more effective ways to improve overall health. This led me to functional medicine, where I could address the root causes of health issues and offer better solutions.
What kind of conditions can functional medicine address?
Functional medicine effectively addresses various chronic and complex health issues. It manages conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and autoimmune disorders by targeting root causes. It's beneficial for digestive problems such as IBS and leaky gut, and hormonal imbalances like thyroid issues and PCOS. Functional medicine also supports mental health concerns like anxiety and depression by considering the body, mind, and environment. This approach restores balance and optimizes overall health.
What role does nutrition play in functional medicine?
Nutrition plays a fundamental role in functional medicine, as its more than just fuel for the body; it's seen as a powerful tool that can influence gene expression, modulate inflammation, support detoxification pathways, and optimize cellular function. By emphasizing whole, nutrient-dense foods and personalized dietary plans, functional medicine aims to address underlying imbalances and promote healing from within.
Is Functional Medicine Evidence based?
Yes, functional medicine is evidence-based. As a practitioner trained in conventional medicine, it's crucial to adopt evidence-based approaches to care. While functional medicine incorporates alternative therapies, its foundation is rooted in scientific evidence. Practitioners stay updated on the latest research to provide the best possible support, recommendations, and care.
Are you diagnosing and prescribing medications?
No, I'm not diagnosing or prescribing medications. As a functional medicine practitioner, I don't operate as a primary care provider. However, I can collaborate closely with individuals' primary care providers if necessary. Otherwise, I provide recommendations on alternative approaches to care. Most often, individuals already have an idea of what they're dealing with but may need support in managing their disease or symptoms alternatively.
How long does it take to see results with functional medicine?
The timeline for seeing results with functional medicine varies for each individual due to bio-individuality. No two people are alike, and everyone responds differently depending on the health concern they are dealing with. Some may experience improvement quickly, while others may take a little longer. With detoxification protocols, it is expected to take a minimum of 3-9 months. Remember, it took years for your body to build up toxins, so it can take time for them to be cleared. Give yourself grace during this process.
Do you take insurance?
No, I do not take insurance. The current system is not designed to reimburse for wellness and alternative approaches to care. However, we do accept payment through HSA and FSA accounts, and we offer payment plans to accommodate our clients.
Can functional medicine be integrated with conventional treatments?
Yes, in many cases, integration is appropriate. The goal is to provide comprehensive care that addresses root causes while also managing symptoms. Collaboration between the practitioner and your healthcare provider is encouraged for optimal patient outcomes.
