FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE

WHAT IS FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE?

Functional medicine is a different approach to managing health and wellness. Functional medicine works by assessing many factors that can affect a person’s health and addressing each individual’s unique circumstances to achieve optimal wellness.

Functional medicine is a holistic approach that sees the entire person, lifestyle, and life stress factors as part of the medical picture. Multiple medical practitioners work together to find the source of a patient’s illness and craft a wellness plan that can help a person’s overall health.

What You Need to Know About Functional Medicine

  • This type of medical practice evaluates the patient’s unique genetics, biochemical makeup, lifestyle, and environmental factors—like toxic exposures. A functional medical doctor takes the time to talk to the patient, rather than rushing into the examination room in a whirlwind (like many traditional medicine doctors) and leaving before the patient gets a chance to ask questions.

  • Functional medicine uses an integrative methodology that centers on the individual’s cellular physiology, biochemistry, and genetics. The restoration of health through regenerative medicine focuses on therapies like these:

  • Functional Medicine

  • Physiotherapy

  • Chiropractic medicine

  • Stem cell injections

  • IV infusion therapy

  • Vitamin/mineral injections

  • PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma)

  • Chelation Therapy

  • The anti-aging aspect uses advanced hormone replacement therapy, as well as nutrition and lifestyle modifications.

TESTIMONIALS

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

After open heart surgery in 2020 I decided to seek out a new doctor who was knowledgeable and could help me monitor all my risk factors. moving forward.
Dr Schortel is absolutely the most knowledgeable doctor I have ever met and gives me advise on supplements I need to avoid issues and keep my blood work where it needs to be. The regular blood tests he orders are the most extensive I have ever had and he tests for more than just the regular things that other doctors do. I am very happy with the service and patient care and would highly recommend anti aging and regenerative associates to anyone serious about their health
