Welcome to Functional Medicine Basics

Are you looking for a holistic approach to your health and well-being? Functional medicine might be the answer you've been searching for. At Dr. Vanessa Passsov, we're here to introduce you to the fundamental principles of functional medicine and how it can transform your life.

What is Functional Medicine?

Functional medicine is a patient-centered, science-based approach to healthcare that aims to uncover the root causes of health issues rather than just treating symptoms. It recognizes that each person is unique, and their health concerns are influenced by their genetics, environment, lifestyle, and more. Functional medicine practitioners like Dr. Vanessa take a deep dive into your health history and conduct advanced testing to understand your body's intricate systems.

Why Choose Functional Medicine?

  • Personalized Care: Functional medicine focuses on you as an individual. Your treatment plan is tailored to your specific needs, helping you achieve lasting results.

  • Holistic Approach: We believe in treating the whole person, not just isolated symptoms. This approach promotes overall wellness and addresses the underlying factors contributing to your health issues.

  • Root Cause Analysis: Instead of masking symptoms with medications, functional medicine seeks to identify and address the underlying causes of your health concerns, providing long-term solutions.
