Partner With a Coach Who Cares.

Our mission is to provide you with the knowledge and support you deserve to restore your health or the health of loved ones and achieve your vision of optimal health and well-being.

I have a diagnosis, what now?  

A diagnosis can be scary. To some, finally having a name to a discomfort can also be comforting. To us, a diagnosis is a starting point. Solving a health problem doesn’t come from naming it, but from understanding the physiological processes at play. Your coach will help match you with a functional practitioner who will look at your body as a whole system. 

Who Do We Serve?

 "The people who come to see us are people saying, I'm not satisfied with the way (healthcare) has been offered so far. Do you have something else to give? Those who are looking for transformation, change and support on that journey."

—Patrick Hanaway, Chief Medical Education Officer for the IFM, leader of the Covid-19 Task Force

....I don't have a diagnosis, can you help me?

Perhaps your symptoms are considered "head-scratching" for your primary care doctor or perhaps have been labelled as "idiopathic" (without a known cause). Your coach will work with you to restore a state of balance and get to the root causes of your symptoms by addressing lifestyle factors like nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress and relationships. 

What is Functional Medicine?

"Functional Medicine asks how and why illness occurs and restores health by addressing the root causes of disease for each individual"

The Institute for Functional Medicine

The Functional Medicine Approach is an individualized, patient-centered, science-based approach that empowers patients and practitioners to work together

ONE CONDITION, MANY CAUSES | ONE CAUSE, MANY CONDITIONS

A diagnosis can be the result of more than one cause. Likewise, a cause such as inflammation may lead to a number of diagnoses, such as depression or heart disease.

The body is a whole system that is interconnected

Diet, lifestyle, and environment turn on—or off— our genes

Your health journey is unique—your treatment is personalized.

"Health it is a total state of physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and social well-being"

Mark Hyman, IFM Board President and Founder of the Cleveland Center for Functional Medicine 

Our Coaches Use Evidence-Based Modalities 

BEHAVIOUR CHANGE

We all know what a healthy lifestyle looks like, but why then don't we 'just do it'?

Our coaches are experts in behaviour change and will guide you every step of the way to help you achieve your health goals.


MIND-BODY MEDICINE

Did you know that every cell in your body is listening to your thoughts?

Sometimes, to get to the root cause of 'dis-ease', we have to dig a little deeper to reveal the beliefs or stories that shape our behaviours and health.


FUNCTIONAL NUTRITION

"Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food"—Hippocrates

When you cells are nourished with the right foods (and essential supplements), we correct nutritional deficiencies and restore function, which leads to better outocmes. 

FUNCTIONAL TESTING

Functional and Genetic Testing can help further personalize your plan

Precision health tools such as microbiome (GI) and DNA testing can help gain deeper insight into your overall health picture.

Questions? We are here to answer them: 

What is the difference between a functional medicine practitioner and a coach? 

Your care team will comprise of both a functional practitioner and a health coach. Both work in close partnership to fully understand the integrated needs of our clients and support their related treatment plans. Your coach will guide you from day 1 of your wellness journey to support your treatment plan, while typically, your practitioner will assist with diagnosis, prescribing any medication or supplements and developing your ongoing treatment plan. 


Will you work with my primary care provider? 

It depends on your provider! In an ideal world, your functional health path is fully integrated with your primary care. But, let's face it, it's not always a reality today. Please note that functional medicine is designed to reveal the underlining causes of chronic symptoms, but does not replace primary, urgent and acute care. 

What if the patient is my child? 

Yes, many parents come to us for their child. Your coach will make sure the treatment plan is child-friendly. For example, your coach will work with you to select supplements that are tasty and easy to swallow.
