OUr Patients

Since our approach focuses on getting to the root issues involved in illness, patients that thrive in our practice usually:

• Want to participate in care and work as a team with us - understanding that healing takes time

• Are willing to make positive lifestyle and dietary changes to improve their health

• Do not want to rely on unnecessary medications

What our patients can expect

We work closely with our patients to provide a thorough understanding of their condition and how root issues have contributed to their symptoms. We use a wide range of tools to identify underlying issues. This includes:

• A detailed case history

• Customized testing (blood, urine, saliva, stool, imaging, etc.)

• A verbal and visual report detailing out what we found, how it explains the presentation of symptoms and what the plan is moving forward

• Follow up labs to track and confirm progress of root issues

• Diet and nutrition services are provided for all of our patients

• With our detailed examination, we are able to identify and address key issues that have eluded our patients. Some underlying conditions that drive disease may include:

• Autoimmune conditions

• Bacterial infections

• Hormone dysregulation

• Gut dysbiosis aka “leaky gut”

• Thyroid conditions

• Mold Illness (CIRS)

• Chronic Lyme disease

• Parasites

To address these root issues, we use herbal medicine, nutritional supplementation along with diet and lifestyle. By eliminating or regulating these root issues, we are able to reverse or greatly improve chronic disease bringing about a better life for those affected by health issues.

OUr Approach

At Genesis Functional Wellness, we have created a model that brings about rapid healing and change, empowering those we work with to take an active approach in their healthcare.

Functional Medicine investigates the root cause of disease and addresses underlying pathology and dysfunction to rebalance the body. All body systems are recognized as connected and interact with one another.  For instance, many symptoms may be present such as fatigue, aches and pains, brain fog, etc. which could be related to a digestive issue or bacterial infection of the gut. 

Functional Medicine treatments are safe, using natural substances such as herbs and nutrition supplements that have mild or no side effects.  Treatments are based on the latest evidence based medical research and trials.  Treatment protocols are designed to empower the individual, prevent and reverse disease and promote optimal function of the mind and body
