Functional Medicine is a holistic, patient-centered approach to treating chronic health issues that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of illness. By considering the whole person, including their genes, environment, lifestyle and nutrition, a truly individualized plan can be developed to address underlying health concerns.
At Moi Health and Wellness, we offer Functional Medicine consults where a Nurse practitioner meets with patients to gather their medical history, identifies the root cause of the patient's health concerns, customizes a healthy living plan, and supports patients throughout their wellness journey.
We recently met a 48-year old female who came to us with severe brain fog.
BACKGROUND:
A 48-year old female came to Moi Health and Wellness complaining of brain fog so bothersome that could no longer complete sentences or remember her morning. She also complained of symptoms of fatigue, joint pains, rashes, sensitivities, indigestion, headaches and irregular periods.
She had already spent thousands of dollars on a conventional work-up that included x-rays, CT scans, ER visits and consultations with specialists without any luck. Her symptoms ultimately forced her to resign from her job because she simply could no longer perform her role in her state of health.
FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE TREATMENT:
At her initial consultation, a detailed intake process was followed, including a complete review of her medical history, lifestyle and nutrition, as well as our Functional Wellness panel blood test.
Upon review of her history and lab results, we were able to identify some of the root causes for her very bothersome symptoms. From there, we were able to assist the patient with identifying and executing lifestyle and nutritional changes to improve her overall wellness and quality of life.
