What is Functional Medicine?
FM is a data-driven, biology-based approach to health that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Similar to Traditional East Asian Medicine, Functional Medicine takes a holistic approach to diagnosis and treatment, considering aspects of an individual’s past and current medical history, socioeconomic status, and other determinants of health—this information is considered alongside data gathered from comprehensive diagnostic testing to create a unique life-style, nutritional, and nutraceutical treatment plan for each patient.
Functional Medicine may be supportive in the treatment of a variety of conditions, such as metabolic and/or endocrine disorders, headaches, gastrointestinal disorders, immune disorders, anxiety, depression, menstrual issues and infertility, and more. Dr. Tulia specializes in the treatment of hormonal imbalances & GI issues.
