Why does functional medicine work?
Functional medicine helps heal the human body based on five basic principles:
- Functional medicine treats the individual, not the disease, since every person is genetically and biochemically unique, supporting the normal healing mechanisms of the body.
- Science shows that understanding a person’s network of relationships can help you see into the functioning of the body.
- Your body is intelligent and has the capacity to self-regulate, which expresses itself through a dynamic balance of all your body systems.
- Your body can heal itself and prevent nearly all the diseases of aging.
- Health is more than the absence of disease. It’s a state of immense vitality.
Your body can heal if the causes of chronic inflammatory disease and other imbalances are identified and reduced or eliminated.
