What is Functional Medicine?

Functional Medicine In General

The functional medicine model of care offers a patient-centered approach to chronic disease management. It seeks to answer the question, “Why are you ill?” so you can receive personalized, effective care for your needs. Functional medicine providers spend time listening to you and gathering your medical history. We use this information to identify the root cause(s) of the illness, including triggers such as poor nutrition, stress, toxins, allergens, genetics and your microbiome (the bacteria living in and on your body). Once we identify the triggers, we can customize a healthy living plan for you. Your plan will address many aspects of your life, from physical needs, including nutrition, exercise and sleep, to mental and emotional stressors related to social, work and community life.

Before your first visit, you complete an extensive health and medical history questionnaire. The information you provide lays the groundwork for our investigation into the root cause(s) of your current chronic condition. The extensive health and medical history questionnaire will ask you about your:

  • Lifestyle: Your diet, activity level, work life, hobbies and stressors.
  • Genetics: Your family history of physical and mental conditions,
  • Environment: Your exposure to toxins and allergens.

Big Picture from Dr Hagmeyer

Have You Jumped From One Natural
Functional Medicine Doctor To The Next?
Perhaps They Didn’t Look at Your "Big Picture"

What I have just described is the Big Picture approach for people with chronic health problems, they often suffer with problems to several of these pillars. 

Determining how to start tackling these pillars and the sequence in which they need to be addressed is something that has taken me over 20 years to develop.

When you view health from this perspective, it’s obvious that chronic health problems are not rooted only in one of these pillars. If you have jumped from one doctor to the next without success, It might be time for you to look at the Big picture.

Often, adjustments to these pillars of health will allow your body to ignite innate healing ability within. Health comes from within, remove the interference, provide the body with what it needs and watch how it bounces back!
