FAQs
What is the difference between functional medicine and integrative medicine?
Functional medicine focuses primarily on the underlying causes of diseases through a systems-oriented approach, emphasizing the body’s natural healing systems. Integrative medicine combines this approach with conventional medical practices, offering a broader toolkit for wellness that includes both traditional and alternative therapies.
What does integrative medicine do?
Integrative medicine aims to heal the whole person—not just the symptoms of disease—by considering all aspects of lifestyle. It blends the science of traditional medicine with the wisdom of natural healing to foster balance and well-being across all areas of life.
Is integrative medicine the same as holistic medicine?
While both focus on treating the whole person, integrative medicine specifically incorporates a blend of conventional and alternative methods to address health. Holistic medicine might rely more heavily on natural treatments and traditional philosophies.
What to expect from an integrative medicine doctor?
You can expect a comprehensive evaluation of your health that includes physical, emotional, and lifestyle factors. Treatment plans are personalized and can involve a variety of modalities such as medications, dietary changes, exercise plans, and mental health strategies.
What's the difference between traditional medicine and integrative medicine?
Traditional medicine often focuses on treating symptoms and diseases using conventional therapies such as drugs and surgery.
