Did you know that 75% of people will use complementary and alternative medicine at some point in their lives?  At our clinic, we’re constantly researching the best new functional medicine approaches for our patients, because, like many, they  were not helped by conventional medicine and prefer non-drug, or natural treatments.

In today’s episode, I’ll discuss how we’ve updated our approach to functional medicine to provide the most effective healing for gut issues, thyroid problems, and more. Learn about the latest in functional medicine practices. Watch now!
