Identify environmental exposures and toxic burdens that may be affecting your immune system, energy, or cognitive function. - Genetic Testing:
Explore your genetic predispositions and how they may be influencing your metabolism, hormone function, and detoxification pathways. This testing helps to create truly personalized health plans.
Integrative medicine is not about alternative medicine; it’s about integrating the best of both conventional and complementary approaches to optimize health.
