How Are you Feeling?
Can Functional Medicine Help?
Have you been experiencing bloating, belly pain, constipation, diarrhea, heartburn, IBS, food sensitivities, anxiety, depression, or inflammation?
Maybe you've been diagnosed with leaky gut or an autoimmune disease.
In functional medicine we take a holistic approach, examining all aspects of health,
including lifestyle, diet, environment and genetics.
We use comprehensive stool analysis to assess GI health, including a test for intestinal permeability or “leaky gut”. We may also use food sensitivity testing as a general guide to help identify triggering foods.

HOW does functional medicine for gut health work?
We guide you through the process starting with a thorough health assessment. Jana, our nurse practitioner will review your case and then meet with you virtually or in-person to clarify details, define your health goals, start your gut restoration program, and order any necessary testing.
During subsequent visits, we will review testing results, create specific vitamin and supplement recommendations, and work on diet and lifestyle changes.
the 54 approach
We start by removing foods that may be causing a reaction or sensitivity.
We then replace enzymes to help digest foods properly and allow healing.
We start to build the gut flora through diet and targeted supplements.
Using specific substances such as L-Glutamine, bone broth, collagen, and herbs we repair the gut lining.
Finally, we address lifestyle to create resilience, reduce stress, and balance the demands of life including work, sleep, play, movement and social connection
