What makes our approach unique?

See if this sounds familiar…..

You go to your doctor because you are tired of not feeling well. Your doctor will do the following:

  1. Look at your health history
  2. Do some testing
  3. Give you a diagnosis, or name your condition (hypothyroid, leaky gut, autoimmune, low hormones, chronic fatigue, etc.)

Next, they give you a medication, pill, injection or supplement that goes along with your diagnosis.

The problem with this approach is that it is incomplete. If the last 50 years of modern medicine has taught us anything, it's that you cannot medicate yourself to health.

While drugs and surgery can be life-saving in emergency situations, most people that see us, are not fighting for their lives, that are fighting to get and stay healthy.

Health is so much more than just masking symptoms. Health is waking up each day and being able to do the things you want to do without the constraints of nagging health issues.

Imagine waking up every day and feeling like “yourself” again. Let us show you a different way!

THE MIND/BODY AND BODY/MIND EFFECT

The body and mind are interconnected, influencing each other significantly. Actions in one domain have a profound impact on the other. What you do for your body resonates in your mind. Understanding this interconnectedness is crucial for achieving overall health restoration.

Environmental Factors

Your environment matters! Factors like diet, air quality, water, physical activity, experiences of trauma, stress, and exposure to environmental toxins all play a role in affecting our genes, cell function, and overall health.

INFLAMMATION AND IMMUNE BALANCE

When your immune system becomes imbalanced, inflammation can increase, sparking a continuous, underlying fire in your body that contributes to DIS-ease. Effectively controlling inflammation is crucial for achieving restored health.

DETOXIFICATION

Detoxification is the natural method by which our liver, kidneys, lungs, skin, and lymphatic system remove waste. If waste builds up, it can cause illness. The crucial factor is determining how to optimize our body's ability to detoxify and eliminate waste while reducing our exposure to toxins.

GUT AND DIGESTIVE HEALTH

Improving gut health has become a key priority in modern wellness. The links between long-term illnesses and an unhealthy balance of gut bacteria are becoming clearer. Our gut plays a crucial role in our overall well-being. Understanding the root cause of gut imbalances and finding ways to fix it can be a key strategy to long-term healing.

HORMONES & NEUROTRANSMITTERS

Most Americans are out of sync with their natural body rhythms. This happens because two important kinds of small molecules, hormones, and mitochondria become dysregulated. Figuring out what's causing these imbalances is the key to making an impactful solution.

WHAT IS FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE?

Functional Medicine investigates the underlying causes of illness, utilizing a holistic approach that engages both patient and practitioner in a collaborative healing partnership. Representing a progressive evolution in healthcare, it uniquely caters to the healthcare demands of the 21st century.

Diverging from the traditional disease-centered model, functional medicine embraces a patient-centered outlook, addressing the entirety of an individual rather than isolated symptoms. Functional Medicine practitioners invest time in getting to know their patients, thoroughly exploring their backgrounds and considering the interplay of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that influence long-term health and complex, chronic conditions. Through this comprehensive method, Functional Medicine advocates for the unique expression of health and vitality for each individual.

Key Features of the Functional Medicine Approach

PATIENT- CENTERED
CARE

Functional Medicine prioritizes patient-centered care, emphasizing health as optimum function rather than just the lack of illness. By carefully listening to your unique needs and health history, our practitioners tailor treatments to suit your individual requirements.

SCIENCE-BASED
HEALTHCARE APPROACH

Functional Medicine practitioners analyze the complex web of relationships within a patient's history, physiology, and lifestyle—seeking out underlying factors that may contribute to illness. We consider each patient's unique makeup, alongside a thorough assessment of internal and external influences (including physical and social environment) that collectively impact overall well-being.

INTEGRATING BEST
PRACTICES

Functional Medicine blends traditional Western medical methods with practices often categorized as "alternative" or "integrative" medicine. We prioritize holistic practices and integrate cutting-edge laboratory testing and diagnostics. This allows us to create truly customized solutions based on what your body needs. Not only do we help to reverse chronic disease, we optimize your body’s function.

THE CHALLENGE

Why we need Functional Medicine?
Our society is experiencing a notable increase in individuals grappling with intricate, persistent conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer, mental health disorders, and autoimmune conditions.

The current medical system, largely practiced by most physicians, largely focuses on acute care—quickly diagnosing and treating trauma or short-term illnesses that require immediate attention, such as appendicitis or a broken leg. Physicians typically utilize targeted interventions such as medications or surgery to address the immediate issue or symptom.
Unfortunately, the acute care-focused approach to medicine lacks the necessary strategies and tools for preventing and managing complex, chronic diseases. It often overlooks factors such as your risk factors, exposure to environmental toxins, and the significant influence of modern Western lifestyles on the rise of chronic conditions.

A significant gap exists between ongoing research and the actual application of new knnowledge. The delay in integrating recent discoveries from basic sciences into medical practice is substantial—sometimes spanning up to 50 years—especially in the realm of complex, chronic illnesses. Why stick to outdated practices when there is room for progress?

At Health Restore Centers, we integrate cutting-edge research and scientific advancements into our treatment protocols.
