What is Functional Medicine?

Functional medicine is a systems biology-based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of disease. By examining the intricate interactions between genetics, environment, and lifestyle, functional medicine practitioners like Ola aim to uncover the underlying factors contributing to a patient's health issues. The science behind functional medicine integrates cutting-edge research in genomics, biochemistry, and systems biology, allowing practitioners to understand the complex web of physiological processes that sustain health and contribute to disease. By utilizing advanced diagnostic tools and a thorough understanding of how molecular and cellular mechanisms are influenced by various factors, functional medicine provides a comprehensive, personalized approach to healthcare. This methodology not only treats symptoms but also aims to restore balance and function in the body, promoting optimal wellness and long-term healing through targeted, integrative strategies tailored to each individual's unique needs and health challenges.
