What is Integrative Medicine?
Integrative Medicine is an integrative , science-based healthcare approach that treats illness and promotes wellness by focusing on the biochemical processes in the body, and the ways that nutrition, lifestyle changes, and natural treatments can impact those processes.
It is a systems approach that analyzes patient’s functioning in 8 major areas:
- Detoxification and Biotransformation
- Hormone & Neurotransmitter Balance
- Gastrointestinal Function
- Energy Production & Oxidative Stress
- Immune & Inflammatory Balance
- Mind & Spirit
- Structural
- Environmental Factors
Using cutting-edge laboratory testing and natural treatment we can maximize your physical, emotional, and mental function. This approach focuses on your unique personal experience and biochemistry.
