Denver's Leading Functional Medicine Center

Functional medicine is true healthcare. Functional medicine takes a root cause (rather than a symptom-based) approach to medicine to promote wellness and prevent and treat chronic disease. It aims to uncover the root cause of symptoms through a wider variety of testing than conventional medicine offers.

Conversely, conventional medicine is disease management. While conventional medicine is essential and has its place, it often neglects preventive and restorative strategies. Instead, it focuses on managing illness once it has occurred, primarily by suppressing symptoms with prescriptions while neglecting the root cause. By treating with medications that mask symptoms and cause side effects, the conventional approach creates patients for life.

While Functional Medicine uses medications when needed, it takes a holistic approach to health by leveraging a wide range of personalized tools and strategies, often leading to complete resolution and restoration of quality of life.
