Functional Medicine in Royal Oak, MI
What is functional medicine?
Functional medicine is a systems biology based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. This holistic view of your health looks at everything in your life that could be causing or worsening your condition.
Conventional practitioners often focus on relieving your symptoms with medications. While this can be helpful, and medicines have an important role, a functional medicine practitioner goes further.
