FAQS

What is functional medicine?

Functional medicine is a science-based, patient-centered approach to achieving optimal health by addressing the underlying causes of disease rather than just treating symptoms.

How is functional medicine different from conventional medicine?

Functional medicine differs from conventional medicine in its approach to healthcare. While conventional medicine often focuses on managing symptoms with medications or procedures, functional medicine aims to identify and treat the root causes of illness. This holistic approach considers the whole person—your genetics, lifestyle, environment, and more—rather than just isolated symptoms. Functional medicine also emphasizes prevention, using advanced diagnostics and personalized treatments to optimize your health and well-being long-term. At Method Functional Medicine, we integrate both traditional and natural therapies to provide a more comprehensive and individualized approach to care.

What types of conditions can be treated with functional medicine?

Functional medicine can be used to treat a wide range of chronic conditions by addressing the underlying causes of disease. Commonly treated conditions include digestive disorders like IBS or leaky gut, hormonal imbalances such as thyroid disorders, PCOS, and menopause, autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, and metabolic conditions like diabetes and obesity. It’s also highly effective for managing chronic fatigue, stress, and mood disorders. At Method Functional Medicine, we focus on creating personalized treatment plans that target the root cause of your health issues, leading to more sustainable improvements in your overall well-being.

What should I expect during my first visit?

During your first visit to Method Functional Medicine, we will take the time to get a complete understanding of your health history, lifestyle, and current concerns. The visit will involve an in-depth consultation where we discuss your medical history, diet, stress levels, environment, and other factors that could be impacting your health. We may recommend advanced lab testing to uncover underlying imbalances. From there, we will create a personalized treatment plan designed to address the root cause of your issues and help you achieve long-term health and wellness.

How long does it take to see results with functional medicine?

The timeline for seeing results with functional medicine varies from person to person, depending on the complexity of your condition and your body’s healing process. Some patients may experience improvements within a few weeks, while others with chronic or long-standing health issues may require several months to see significant changes. Functional medicine focuses on long-term health rather than quick fixes, so our approach is tailored to gradually restore balance to your body, often leading to more lasting results over time.
