A Nurse Practitioner’s Perspective on Functional Medicine:

How It Determines Illness and Restores Health

As a nurse practitioner, I firmly believe in the power of holistic health care. For me, one of the most important aspects of holistic health care is functional medicine. Not only does it look beyond traditional Western medical approaches to determining illness, but it also takes into account factors that can be utilized to restore optimal health by addressing the root causes of illness for each individual patient.

What Is Functional Medicine?

Simply put, functional medicine is an integrative approach to healthcare that looks at an individual’s physical, mental, emotional, genetic, environmental, lifestyle and nutritional factors that may be contributing to their current state of health or wellbeing in order to better understand how and why illness occurs. This differs from traditional Western medicine which typically seeks to identify and treat illnesses using medications or surgery without taking into account all potential contributing factors.

At its core, functional medicine looks beyond the symptoms of an illness and instead focuses on finding the root cause so that treatment plans can be targeted more accurately and proactively rather than reactively with symptom management alone. For example, if someone is experiencing digestive issues such as bloating or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) type symptoms they might go see their regular doctor who could likely prescribe medication without exploring further into potential causes such as food intolerances or nutrient deficiencies - something which practitioners trained in functional medicine would take into consideration before prescribing any kind of medication.

How Does Functional Medicine Work?

Functional medicine uses a patient-centered approach for both understanding and treating health problems. This means that not only does it take into account the person’s overall physical condition but also mental/emotional states along with other external factors such as genetics, environment and lifestyle choices in order to develop a comprehensive picture of what exactly is going on inside their body when they experience symptoms related to an illness or condition.

To do this effectively, advanced technologies are often used such as genetic testing as well as detailed laboratory assessments which give insight into how various body systems are functioning both internally and externally at any given time. This allows practitioners trained in this field to make informed decisions about which tests are necessary based on each individual’s unique biochemistry thus providing them with more personalized treatments tailored specifically towards their particular needs - something which isn't available through standard medical practices alone. Additionally, self-care strategies may also be recommended along with conventional treatments depending on each patient's specific needs at any given time. These can include dietary modifications, nutraceutical supplementation, stress management techniques, acupuncture, herbal remedies etc. All these methods combined together work synergistically in order for individuals experience long-term improvements in terms of overall health outcomes compared with traditional treatments alone.

Why Should You Consider Functional Medicine?

For those interested in achieving true wellness that takes into account factors such as genetics, environment, lifestyle etc. functional medicine provides an excellent option for understanding our own unique bioindividuality while also offering long-term benefits for those suffering from chronic conditions or illnesses not typically addressed within traditional settings.

Furthermore, many patients find themselves feeling heard when discussing their concerns with practitioners trained in this field since they're generally sympathetic towards individualized approaches when compared with one-size-fits-all solutions seen elsewhere.

Lastly, because functional medicine utilizes sophisticated diagnostic tools alongside personalized treatments tailored specifically towards each patient's particular needs they often experience rapid relief from symptoms compared with other forms of conventional care making it an ideal choice for anyone looking for fast yet lasting results.
