Functional Wellness
Functional Wellness is a patient-centered approach to preventative health, chronic disease management, and longevity. This systems-based approach to health & wellness seeks to identify, balance, and correct the root cause rather than simply mask symptoms with medications.
A functional wellness plan customized for you seeks to optimize your overall wellness so that you can perform daily tasks, social roles, and active lifestyle in the way you want.
Good nutrition and balanced hormones play a big part in your overall wellness.
To optimize your functional wellness, it is important to understand your current baselines by testing blood levels, gut biome, and other markers in the body. With an understanding of your baselines, a good physician can customize a wellness plan for you.
There are many advancements in functional wellness therapies for chronic illness treatment, disease prevention, and overall longevity. Ask your provider for information on possible advanced therapies related to your personalized wellness plan.
