Basic Functional Medicine

What is Basic Functional Medicine?

Basic Functional Medicine is a personalized, patient-centered approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of disease. It is an evidence-based practice that combines the latest scientific research with a holistic understanding of the body, and views each patient as a unique individual with their own health history, genetic makeup, and environmental influences.

Our providers work to identify and treat the underlying factors that contribute to a patient's health issues, rather than simply treating the symptoms. They may use a variety of tools and techniques to address the root causes of disease, such as nutrition and lifestyle modifications, stress management, exercise, supplements, and medications when necessary.

Basic Functional Medicine recognizes that many chronic health conditions are the result of multiple factors, including genetics, environment, diet, lifestyle, and social and emotional factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to healthcare and treating the whole person, Basic Functional Medicine aims to help patients achieve optimal health and prevent chronic disease. PERMA Mental Health is one of the few Basic Functional Medicine clinics that accept Insurance.
