Functional Health

Functional health is an approach that focuses on the optimal function of the body. This means helping the body function in the best way possible by focusing on efficiency in each organ of the body. Functional health understands that every individual is different – from genetics to biochemical makeup. Because of this, functional health has a personalized approach for each patient – with both diagnostics and therapies. This approach relies heavily on science-based research and testing to understand a patient’s unique needs.

Functional health works to correct problems in organs and the rest of the body using natural supplements wherever possible. While it does incorporate traditional medicine when necessary, functional health strives to use natural ways to fix health problems. Functional health also heavily emphasizes lifestyle changes to fix health problems, such as diet, exercise, sleep patterns, stress levels, and other aspects of life. 

If you are experiencing chronic stress, insomnia, anxiety fatigue, or having trouble losing weight, having an Adrenal Stress Index (ASI) Test can help.

By taking an ASI test, we are able to not only discover the cause of your symptoms but also provide comprehensive context and measurements for your hormone levels.

With an ASI test, we are able to measure cortisol and five other hormones within the span of 24 hours. As saliva is the best method for measuring free, active levels of cortisol, an ASI test will provide greater, more detailed results when compared to the standard serum and urine testing. The collection process is non-invasive and painless.
