Functional Medicine at HealologyHealth
Functional medicine is based upon a desire to construct comprehensive, individualized treatments that create sustainable wellness in each patient. Instead of only focusing on immediate symptoms, functional medicine aims to treat the source of the problem while improving overall wellness. Functional medicine treatments produce a holistic benefit to patients and can work to improve overall health and wellbeing without covering up symptoms with pharmaceutical drugs. While it is not necessarily a substitute for traditional medicine, functional medicine provides another approach to relieve numerous ongoing issues, both physical and mental in nature.
Functional medicine applies the body’s innate healing and regulatory capacity to resolve issues often without extensive medical procedures or pharmaceutical dependence. Our approach considers the role of the environment upon your health and the immune, gastrointestinal, and endocrine systems to find the ideal response to your issues. Contrary to many symptom-based forms of medicine, functional medicine acknowledges the whole person when looking at each diagnosis and each cause. The practitioners at HealologyHealth assess each patient’s health history, determining how current and past environmental and lifestyle conditions interact, before developing a unique therapy. This personalized approach works to treat the individual, not the disease, identifying the optimal plan for each patient and assisting the body’s natural healing mechanisms.
One of our primary treatments, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), can remedy patients’ hormonal imbalance and its often-debilitating effects. BHRT restores your hormonal makeup to its optimal state, inducing a variety of benefits, from fatigue and ache relief to increased muscle mass and sexual libido. Through BRHT, HealologyHealth’s practitioners can help alleviate some of the most common challenges of aging, such as forgetfulness and even weight gain, with an emphasis on each patient’s unique hormonal imbalance while taking into account their patient’s lifestyle and overall wellness. Moreover, functional medicine may be applied to any patient, regardless of sex, age, or condition, to produce the same substantial, restorative effects; this includes reducing or eliminating hot flashes and vaginal dryness associated with menopause, in addition to mood swings, sleeplessness, and erectile dysfunction.
