Functional Medicine

Functional medicine is a modern approach which is designed to amend treatment course and make it more suitable for modern medical techniques. Functional medicine aims to determine original causes of illness, without major focus on the symptoms. This type of therapy switches from usual disease-centered medical means and provides every patient with individual and more effective treatment. These amplifications are gained through complex analyses of patient's lifestyle, habits and general state of health, regarding them as primary cause of a disease. Functional medicine diagnostics means examine patients' blood, urine, or stool samples, thus giving practitioner  a possibility to get a complete image of patients allergic susceptibility, metabolism, and the state of patients' body systems.
