What to Expect From Functional Medicine
Our goal is to provide safe, compassionate care to every patient. Our functional medicine practitioners treat not just the symptoms but also find the underlying imbalances and discover whether they result from nutritional deficiencies, environmental toxicities, food allergies, excessive stress, or other lifestyle issues. After conducting a thorough evaluation, examination, genetic history, and advanced testing, our team determines which resources will be most suitable for your ailments and formulate an individualized treatment protocol.
Proper, effective functional medicine protocols can effectively improve many conditions by addressing the root cause of the disease and not just the symptoms. These conditions include the following:
- Adrenal fatigue
- Detoxification issues
- Causes of thyroid imbalances
- Blood sugar levels
- Allergies
- Sleeping disorder
- Fibromyalgia
- Fatigue
- Cholesterol imbalances
- Digestive function
What Are the Benefits of Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine is evolving healthcare. With an emphasis on understanding and addressing the root causes of diseases rather than merely relieving symptoms, this holistic approach integrates traditional medical practices with innovative resources, technologies, and therapies. Functional medicine offers a comprehensive and alternative approach to health and wellness, including the following benefits:
- Focuses on the Source of Disease: Treatment does more than mask or relieve symptoms; it’s about finding the root cause of medical conditions to heal. Once the cause of an illness is identified, you and your practitioner can discuss lifestyle changes and alternative treatments to prevent disease and optimize better health.
- A Multidisciplinary Approach: Functional medicine doctors develop a big picture of ailments and patients, diving deep into medical history, genetics, biochemical makeups, and lifestyle and environmental factors, as well as physiology, to address the nature of these conditions. Functional medicine focuses on holistic and integrative medicine with alternative medical treatments to enhance nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress management.
- A Customized Course of Treatment: By incorporating much of a patient’s history and lifestyle into developing a diagnosis, a course of treatment plan can be highly personalized. We believe in a noninvasive and integrative approach to healthcare, offering alternative treatments to achieve optimal health.
Southwest Mind & Body Care Reviews
Great place for functional medicine enthusiasts and those who are looking for additional therapies in addition to great doctors. They will help you will total health instead of just diagnosing diseases. I lobe this place!
I have never seen a functional medicine doctor until I met Dr. Randhawa. The moment I met with her she was kind, compassionate, and truly shows that she cares about her patients. She talked me through my options for treatment and never forced any medications. She listened to my concerns and help me determine the best choice of treatment. I've never met a more caring doctor. The office staff are so kind and remember you by name. I can't recommend Southwest Mind and Body care enough to family and friends. If you are looking into functional medicine I highly recommend Dr. Randhawa. The other physicians in the office are amazing as well. You can't go wrong meeting any of the doctors and staff here. I highly recommend this office!
