What is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine is like an investigative team that finds out why a problem started, while conventional medicine is like an emergency response system. Functional medicine sees the body as a whole system instead of just separate parts. We look for the root causes of problems, such as nutrient deficiencies, hidden infections, or long-term stress, and then we use targeted lifestyle changes to bring things back into balance.
