About Functional Medicine
Functional Medicine (FM) is a whole body-systems based method to address the root cause of chronic disease. Functional Medicine utilizes a lifestyle first based approach combined with natural and conventional medicine principles to help you restore healthy function. These lifestyle interventions include diet, sleep, movement/exercise, light exposure and stress reduction. Functional Medicine avoids naming and managing your disease but focuses on the why and how to reverse it.
With Functionally Well, I believe the lifestyle elements must be addressed first in order to achieve and maintain true health and wellness. I will then utilize other interventions such as advanced bloodwork, supplementation and prescription medications only where necessary and appropriate.
​
My goal is to guide you in reversing your chronic conditions and understanding how to maintain a disease free state on your own. I believe this to be the ultimate freedom in our modern world where disease is so common, it is considered normal.
My Story
I've been there . . .
I have been through the medical system for years having been diagnosed with lupus at 16 then developing endometriosis. After being on endless medications and multiple surgeries, I was left unsupported and still suffering. I had resigned to this just being my genetics and my life going forward. It wasn’t until I became pregnant with my second child that I decided enough was enough and I did not want to be sick and tired anymore.
I looked deeply into diet and lifestyle and made radical changes to my standard american way of living. I never anticipated the complete remission of disease that I experienced in such a short time. I knew there was no going back for me. It has now become my mission to share this knowledge with as many people as I can and provide everyone freedom from disease we all deserve.
