Functional medicine is a systematic approach designed to find and heal the underlying causes of disease and dysfunction in the body. Through recognizing underlying triggers and imbalances, we can formulate a personalized roadmap for healing using natural, evidenced-based approaches such as lifestyle medicine, therapeutic nutrition plans, targeted supplements, botanicals, or bioidentical hormones.
Comprehensive Gut Healing
Optimize digestive health with advanced gut testing.
Our Approach: Together, we apply the 5R method—Remove, Replace, Re-inoculate, Repair, and Rebalance. By integrating dietary changes, lifestyle adjustments, botanicals, and occasional medications, I aim to alleviate issues like reflux, bloating, SIBO/SIFO, IBS, and leaky gut. Expect ancillary benefits such as enhanced cognition, reduced joint pain, and improved mood.
Harmonize Your Hormones
Balance adrenals, thyroid, & reproductive hormones.
Our Approach: Together we will improve your hormonal foundation by optimizing sleep, movement, nutrition, and stress management. Additionally, I'll examine your gut health, adrenals, thyroid, liver, and blood sugar to support the symphony of hormones. I offer botanical and nutraceutical options as well as Bio-identical hormone replacement to achieve a balanced state.
Correct Autoimmunity
Custom guidance to confront autoimmune disease.
Our Approach: We'll address the triad of genetic predisposition, leaky gut, and environmental triggers, I work to tame autoimmunity at its source by focusing on gut health, lifestyle, inflammation control, and trigger elimination. Similarly, I'll help with Long-Covid and Post-Covid Vaccine problems through a functional medicine approach enhanced by FLCCC protocols.
Radiate Clear Skin
Tackle enduring skin problems at their core.
Our Approach: We will holistically evaluate potential triggers, such as nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, detoxification issues, and gut triggers, aiding in bringing lasting relief to conditions such as acne, rosacea, psoriasis, and eczema.
Optimize Metabolic Health
Balance metabolism and change body composition.
Our Approach: By addressing your metabolic blockers (i.e. sleep, nutrition, exercise, stress, hormonal imbalance, inflammation, and toxins) we can balance blood sugar and get your body in a state where building lean mass and shedding unwanted weight is achievable.
