What is a functional medicine assessment?
A functional medicine assessment is a comprehensive evaluation that looks at the underlying causes of your health concerns. This approach focuses on identifying and addressing the root issues that may be contributing to your symptoms, rather than just treating the symptoms themselves.
During the assessment, your practitioner will take a detailed look at your medical history, lifestyle factors, and any current symptoms or concerns. They may order specialized lab tests to gain a deeper understanding of your biochemical and physiological processes. By taking this holistic view, your practitioner can develop a personalized plan to support your body’s natural healing abilities and help you achieve optimal health and wellness.
