Functional Medicine

What is Functional Medicine?

Functional Medicine is an individualized, patient-centered, science-based approach that empowers patients and practitioners to work together to address the underlying causes of disease and promote optimal wellness. It requires a detailed understanding of each patient’s genetic, biochemical, and lifestyle factors in order to create a personalized treatment plan that leads to improved patient outcomes.

By focusing on the cause, rather than any symptoms, providers become oriented to identifying the complexity of the disease. Functional Medicine treatment targets the specific manifestations of disease in each individual.

What can Functional Medicine do for you?

Functional Medicine can help treat and potentially minimize your chronic health issues, such as obesity, diabetes, aches and pains, and many other health issues. For more information, schedule a phone consultation today!

Weight Loss

You will learn:

  • How fad diets and calorie restriction can aggravate health concerns and weight loss efforts rather than fix the problem, resulting in a downward spiral.
  • How to improve your weight loss efforts and overall health by synchronizing your training plan to a personalized lifestyle and nutrition plan.
  • How to finally reach peak health so you don’t ever use age or slow metabolism as an excuse for weight management.

My Promise to You:

I will show you how to have consistent weight loss efforts and management by coordinating three phases of a personalized weight management program.

Contour Light Therapy

The Contour Light system uses LED and near-infrared light in proven clinical therapeutic wavelengths of 635nm and 880nm. This increases ATP production (cellular energy) within the mitochondria (a powerhouse of energy) in our cells. This allows the mitochondria to carry out their purpose of cleaning, detoxifying, and energizing cells from start to natural finish.

Red Light Therapy Benefits:

  • Body Contouring
  • Pain Management
  • Muscle Relaxation
  • Relief of Joint Stiffness
  • Increased Blood Circulation

Mental Healthcare

Asking for help can be tough. You may feel as though you’ll be seen as weak or needy. It can also be hard to give up control when seeking help. Challenging yourself to become the best possible YOU is one of the strongest, most courageous things you can do.

Through a grant funded program with the St John Fisher University Licensed Mental Health Counseling program, clinicians treat a variety of behavioral health conditions and symptoms for our patients. Our Collaborative Care approach delivers results that help improving the lives of our patients. We also work closely with clinicians in the Rochester area in order to help our patients obtain mental health care.

We are here to support you through every step of your care journey. Together, we can help you improve your life with a whole-person care approach! Ask us how you can benefit from working with a counselor!
