Functional Medicine
Discover a holistic approach to your health and well being
Let's begin by asking yourself a few questions
Have you found yourself frustrated with traditional medicine?
Have you been referred to multiple specialists for each of your various symptoms?
Have you struggled to find any improvement in your quality of life?
If you answered “yes”, that’s because traditional Western medicine asks the question “what”, whereas functional medicine asks "why".
In the “what” model, you are given a diagnosis followed by a pill that coincides with the treatment for that diagnosis. This model works well for acute illnesses, but often fails for chronic illnesses.
By separating the body systems into specialties, traditional Western medicine often misses the larger picture. Functional medicine, on the other hand, seeks to determine the root cause of illness. This requires a comprehensive investigation of all the body systems as a whole. The resulting data is then utilized to implement an individualized treatment plan, focusing on lifestyle changes through nutrition, hydration, sleep, movement, mindfulness, and emotional release. We also utilize integrative treatment modalities through nutraceutical supplements and herbal therapies, while holding space for medications when necessary. Through this process, you as the patient, are allowed to achieve your own expression of optimal health and vitality.
"You treat a disease: You win, you lose. You treat a person, I guarantee you win—no matter the outcome."
~ Patch Adams
How Does Functional Medicine Work?
In order to uncover the root cause of illness, a functional medicine practitioner must engage in deep detective work through a detailed history and laboratory testing that takes into consideration the unique exchange between genetics, environment, lifestyle, and spirituality. An individualized plan is then created, one that allows the patient to achieve their own expression of optimal health and vitality. This process empowers patients and practitioners to work together, creating a therapeutic partnership in order to facilitate healing by bringing the mind and body back into balance.
Monarch Way focuses on a few key aspects when designing your individualized wellness plan. They all work synergistically together in order to bring you back to optimal health. These include: nutrition, sleep, movement, mindfulness, nutraceutical supplementation, and pharmaceuticals (when needed).
