The power of functional medicine

At Total Health and Wellness, we offer the future of conventional medicine - functional medicine. By using a functional medicine approach, we seek to find the root of your illnesses and ailments, looking at the body and your life as a whole instead of individual parts of the puzzle. By treating the whole system instead of merely the symptoms, we’re able to truly address the underlying issues causing the disease, using the patient and practitioner in a partnership to foster wellness.

Why functional medicine? 

This shift away from traditional medicine is a necessary one as it looks at the big picture - lifestyle, nutrition, and environmental factors as well as genetics and your health history can all play a part into your chronic health issues and disease that traditional medicine unfortunately overlooks. 

With traditional healthcare, you’re seen as a number, not a person - you’re given a rushed appointment, checking off your physical symptoms in order to prescribe a medication that often changes nothing or makes your issue worse. 
Diseases are complex, and functional medicine looks at each patient as a unique individual to develop a patient-centered treatment plan to correct the root of the disease.

Functional medicine looks for long-term solutions instead of a quick, acute fix. With a large increase in chronic health diseases, it’s no wonder people are searching for alternative forms of treatment. Functional medicine offer integrative health solutions that work, putting the patient at the center of the plan, as a large participator in the treatment. 

The functional medicine difference

While most physicians aren’t trained to determine the cause of diseases and chronic health problems, we specialize in assessing these complex causes and use tactics such as diet, exercise, lifestyle changes, and nutrition to prevent and treat our patients. At Total Health and Wellness, you’ll experience patient-centered care, a holistic, scientifically based treatment plan, and best medicine practices in our comfortable office.
