    3 benefits of functional medicine

    Functional medicine is described as an emerging paradigm in the U.S., focusing on treating the root causes of disease and improving functionality across the body. Here are a few benefits:


    1. It’s a multidisciplinary integration: Functional medicine merges Western and Chinese medicine, homeopathy and nutrition to treat functional causes of disease.
    2. It has a holistic focus: Functional Medicine takes into account the interaction of organs, glands and bodily functions, considering the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of health.
    3. It has a significant lifestyle impact: Functional medicine emphasizes how elements like relationships, aging, stress and work directly impact the thyroid and overall health.


    Our nurse practitioner, Shep Saltzman, believes in the benefits of functional medicine and is happy to help you find a solution to your health issues. Contact us today to learn more about the benefits of our health care services. We accept HSAs, FSAs, checks, cash and cards.
