The announcement about the publication of the guide: “What Exactly Is Functional Medicine…Here’s How It Works” will be of interest to people seeking an individualized and patient-centered approach to healing which focuses on finding the root cause of their health issues instead of only treating the symptoms.
The guide explains how functional medicine is becoming increasingly popular in the United States, where it is used to treat and diagnose a wide range of illnesses, including chronic conditions.
The functional medicine guide highlights the fact that functional health doctors are real doctors. Tri-Cities Functional Medicine’s medical director, Dr. Joseph Radawi, has an M.D. from the American University of the Caribbean, completed his residency at the University of Arkansas Medical Sciences, is certified by the American Board of Family Medicine, and spent a decade practicing emergency medicine before entering the field of functional medicine.
Dr. Radawi discovered functional medicine after realizing that traditional medicine is great at treating acute illnesses and injuries but not so good for the treatment of chronic conditions. Instead, functional medicine doctors work with their patients to restore their overall health and well-being. While functional medicine doctors can prescribe medication when necessary, unlike traditional medicine, they don’t apply quick-fix solutions to complex problems.
Functional medicine takes a modern approach to medical practice, and relies heavily on scientific research and testing to solve problems. Practicing functional medicine doctors aim to treat illnesses naturally wherever possible. These natural approaches heavily emphasize the power of lifestyle modification in restoring a patient’s health over the long term.
Lifestyle modifications include dietary changes, exercise advice, and evidence-based alternative treatments. Functional medicine treatments may also include detoxification therapies, IV vitamin/mineral therapies, and oxidative therapies.
