What is Functional Medicine?
True Body has robust Functional Medicine services. What is Functional Medicine or Wellness? Functional medicine is a personalized, science-based approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of disease. Unlike conventional medicine, it emphasizes the interconnectedness of the body’s systems and considers how factors like genetics, diet, lifestyle, and environment impact health over time. Functional medicine providers use advanced lab testing and diagnostics to create tailored treatment plans that may include medications, natural supplements, therapeutic diets, detox programs, and stress management. By taking the time to understand a patient’s full medical history and life context, they aim to prevent illness and promote overall well-being by targeting the underlying issues rather than just the symptoms.
