Functional & Integrative Medicine
Heather aims to treat root causes using the holistic lens of Chinese Medicine alongside Western diagnostic tools like bloodwork, urine, and saliva testing, to optimize your internal health, mitigate your largest stressors, and create a solid foundation from which to build true longevity.
What is it?
Functional and Integrative Medicine looks beyond symptoms to uncover the trends behind them, before they become disease. It pairs the diagnostic depth of lab testing with a whole-person view of health, so your care plan addresses root cause, not just what you're feeling today.
How does it work?
Where Traditional Chinese Medicine reads the body through tongue and pulse diagnosis and works primarily with plant-based botanicals, Functional Medicine leans on bloodwork, urine, and saliva testing, paired with targeted supplements. Both are built to treat root cause and symptom together, just through different diagnostic lenses.
