Exeter Area Chamber of Commerce: The Future of Functional Medicine

6

Exeter Area Chamber of Commerce issued the following announcement on January February 3.

Functional Medicine is the future of medicine. By shifting the traditional disease-centered focus of medical practice to a more patient-centered approach, functional medicine addresses the whole person, not just an isolated set of symptoms. 

How Is Functional Medicine Different?

When you go to a traditional doctor with a health concern, you will most likely be given one of two solutions: Medication or Surgery

But when you visit a Functional Medicine provider like Irina, here at You Holistic, we try to figure out why you are experiencing the given health concern by getting to the root cause of the issue.

We work "upstream" consider the complex web of interactions in the patient’s history, physiology, and lifestyle that can lead to illness. The unique genetic makeup of each patient is considered, along with both internal (mind, body and spirit) and external (physical and social environment) factors that affect total functioning.

From here we try to restore balance within the body and may utilize specialized diagnostic testing, diet and lifestyle modifications, and/or supplements.
