Functional Medicine Health Coach

The smart way to elevating your health

Your body is built to heal naturally. Yet, real health doesn’t come from just another to-do list, self-help book, or willpower. You may not find it magically written on a prescription pad or in over-the-counter medication either. This is where functional medicine health coaching comes in.

The real reason you haven’t been able to get healthy isn’t about your willpower or finding the right doctor. It’s because (quite frankly) modern medicine is often focused on suppressing symptoms.

(And sometimes we can create more health problems in the long-run with medications if we never find ways to get healthy!)

In order to heal your body, you first have to find out what’s not working in your body (makes sense, right?).

Where traditional medicine treats symptoms, functional medicine identifies the source of illness and restores healthy function to enable the body to eliminate illness.

Then add in health coaching (think: busting barriers along with gentle nudges to keep you on track with your goals) and you are on your way to realizing the dreams of a better you!

You are one amazingly beautiful interconnected human

You know those butterflies in your stomach when you get excited, or nervous? That’s your brain talking to your digestion telling it “slow down, we have other business to take care of.”  It’s a stress response (even if its a positive trigger) and your brain sends instructions to your body to send blood to other parts of your body, ready to mobilize, rather than your digestion.  

There are reminders all the time that our bodies and minds, physical and emotional are connected. Similarly, our bodies may show a symptom in one area (a rash for example) that are a result of dysfunction somewhere else (your gallbladder for example).

Functional Medicine treats the body as a fully connected, harmonious, constantly communicating system. This science-based methodology focuses on discovering and addressing the root cause of illness, discomfort, and disease. Conversely, traditional medicine primarily focuses on symptom suppression.

Conditions Addressed with Functional Medicine

Illness occurs when our genes are triggered (expressed) because of some environment exposure (toxins, allergens, microbes, nutrition, stress) plus lifestyle (what we think, feel and do).

Individuals with a wide variety of conditions can benefit from a functional medicine approach to health including:

  • Autoimmune diseases – rheumatoid arthritis, lupus and celiac disease, etc.
  • Cardiometabolic conditions – diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and heart disease
  • Digestive disorders – irritable bowel syndrome, ulcers, chronic pancreatitis, acid reflux and diverticulosis
  • Hormonal problems – thyroid conditions, chronic fatigue and menopause
  • Lifestyle complications – lack of energy, brain fog, disrupted sleep, low sex drive
  • Neurological and psychiatric conditions – depression, attention deficit disorder (ADD/ADHD), addiction (cravings) and migraine headaches
  • Skin disorders – psoriasis, acne and eczema
