Functional Medicine is based upon sophisticated and sensitive functional diagnostic laboratory testing. Investigations include haematological, urine, stool, saliva and hair tests. The results are then submitted to rigorous scientific scrutiny and interpretation.
The objective is to correct metabolic abnormalities which are frequently responsible for the onset and maintenance of ill health. These therapeutic measures act to strengthen the immune system and to gently restore normal homeostatic equilibrium.
The treatment is primarily drug-free, though orthodox allopathic medicine is used when necessary. Treatment modalities include dietary and nutritional counselling, combined with specific supplementation (vitamins, minerals, trace elements, antioxidants, fatty acids and natural hormones when necessary). Many years of clinical research using these treatment methods have provided patients with safe remedies without the unpleasant and potentially dangerous side-effects that may be experienced with licensed pharmaceutical medications. Treatment of each patient is based on individualized clinical assessments allied with the experienced knowledge and interpretation of results.
