I’ve asked the Healthier Together community to give me their best go-to Functional Doctor recommendations across the country. I hope this helps you find amazing Functional Doctors for everything from OBGYN to naturopathic doctors to optometry to primary care to biofeedback to sports medicine.
What exactly is functional medicine?
If you’re interested in Functional Medicine or integrative medicine but aren’t quite sure where to start, you’re not alone. Here’s a quick look at what it is and why it’s awesome:
- It’s highly personalized healthcare. You form a close bond with your doctor who looks closely at your unique history, genetics, environment and lifestyle.
- It’s deeply science based. There’s plenty of research on Functional Medicine showing how this holistic approach heals the body.
- It treats the root cause instead of treating symptoms. It considers you as a whole person and not just your ailment.
- It offers natural approaches for healing like nutritional therapy, stress reduction techniques, exercise recommendations, and more natural treatments.
Basically, instead of asking “what drug matches up with this disease?” like in conventional medicine, Functional Medicine doctors ask “What’s causing this problem in the first place?” and “What can we do to naturally restore it?”
Just to be clear, these recommendations are all straight from you and they’re not my personal doctors or recommendations. I made every effort to provide correct names, titles, and links, but there may be some instances where information is incorrect – I welcome any suggestions to revise!
