HOWWILL A FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE TREATMENT PLAN BENEFIT ME?
There are several benefits to functional medicine. However, we believe the three-fold tier that Science Based Medicine lays out illustrates the key aspects of this approach best: • Functional Medicine offers a powerful new operating system and clinical model for assessment, treatment, and prevention of chronic disease to replace the outdated and ineffective acute-care models carried forward from the 20th century. • Functional Medicine incorporates the latest in genetic science, systems biology, and understanding of how environmental and lifestyle factors influence the emergence and progression of disease. • Functional Medicine enables physicians and other health professionals to practice proactive, predictive, personalized medicine and empowers patients to take an active role in their own health. The whole focus around functional medicine is natural pain relief - helping patients understand what will help them and employing those measures into their daily lives, without the need for aggressive treatment or pain-management medication. At the end of the day, our team at Peak Ortho Physical Therapy believes in the effects of functional medicine because it helps patients reclaim their lives. We want to make sure that your health and wellness is here for the long haul - and functional medicine can help you get there. Contact us today to get started!
