Functional Medicine
Functional Medicine is a science based approach/medicine. It seeks to uncover the root causes of illness by looking at the patient's entire medical history and with the help of modern laboratory tests.
Better said: „We are looking for not what is wrong with this person but why this person has an issue."
Functional Medicine then seeks to improve your health and vitality by using targeted (personalised) treatment plans, high-quality supplements and lifestyle changes.
Psycho-emotional components are also taken into consideration. In this way, the person is treated as a whole and not just the individual symptoms.
In addition to laboratory tests, I use HRV (heart rate variability) analysis which can help to assess the stress load on the organism. You can read more about this method here: www.ans-analysis.com
If necessary, I refer out to other experts trying to find the best possible result for you.
The results of standard laboratory testing are often unremarkable and yet the patient does not feel healthy.
Modern tests might reveal chronic inflammation, food intolerances, imbalances in the intestinal flora (gut microbiome), nutrient deficiencies, chronic stress and much more.
During the initial consultation, I will explain the tests in more detail and evaluate which ones could be useful for you personally.
