What is Functional Medicine?
I’m your natural hormone balancing detective, and I love to dive deep to investigate!
It’s all about Testing, not guessing! Don’t put a band aid on it!
When I talk about Testing, it is laboratory testing, which can include blood testing, saliva testing, urine testing, stool testing, and many more. These tests are common functional health tests, and not usually done by your doctor or covered by insurance. So while you may get some annual blood tests from your primary care doctor, I usually see these tests as very basic, and women are falling through the cracks because they are not getting individualized testing they need.
That’s what functional medicine is all about. Taking your history and customizing testing to you. Once we have answers with the testing, what I do is create a personalized nutrition, supplement and lifestyle plan for you based on your testing. Functional medicine is personalized health care for you and your issues, not a cookie cutter solution. No more guessing!

What Are the Benefits of Using Functional Medicine?
- It is all about getting to the cause of your health problems and not covering it up with drugs.
- It’s also about helping you not waste money, or time, by self diagnosing and taking supplements or treatment that may not be right for your body.
- The process is about finding out what your individual body needs by doing the appropriate testing. These tests can tell the nutritional status of your body. By re-testing at a later time you can see results and positive changes in your health.
- Functional Medicine not only treats illness or diseases that you currently have, but with the testing you can know where you are headed and can help you prevent disease.
What Is Natural Women’s Healthcare?
- This is Functional Medicine geared exclusively to helping women balance their hormones naturally.
- Many women do not want to take prescription hormones as many synthetic hormones are toxic. Many women are interested in natural solutions to hormones health, as they have a family member or even themselves, have had a hormone dependent cancer, such as breast cancer, and prefer not to take synthetic hormones.
- A comprehensive Functional Medicine evaluation will give you a baseline of where you are with your hormones and your health, and offer natural solutions to achieve balance.
