In-Depth Functional Medicine Testing in O’Fallon
Functional medicine (FM) takes a holistic approach by looking at all the underlying physiological factors that could be causing health issues rather than just treating symptoms. It aims to optimize and improve functions in the body rather than just suppress them with drugs.
Identifying the Underlying Cause
To address a patient’s health issues, our all-encompassing approach includes identifying potential chemical or diet-related irregularities that may be causing dysfunction in the body. We offer in-depth and cost-effective testing and evaluation, typically beginning with a blood test to pinpoint these irregularities.
Here are some of the markers that these blood tests look for:
- Nutritional deficiencies
- Hormone levels
- Inflammation markers
- Digestive function
- Immune function
- Metabolic function
- Genetic markers
