Functional medicine uses a personalised approach to treating an illness or disease that takes into consideration various factors, such as diet, genetics, environment, and lifestyle. By examining each of these factors, functional medicine practitioners strive to approach your condition from multiple perspectives. The fundamental principle of functional medicine is a systems biology-based approach that seeks to identify the underlying causes of a condition and provide treatment that addresses these causes, resulting in long-term benefits.

The strength of functional medicine lies in its comprehensive treatment methods, taking into account many different facets that could be contributing to their health challenges. Instead of merely addressing symptoms or providing a one-dimensional approach to chronic conditions, Functional medicine takes into account a patient’s personal, family, social, and medical history, constructing a comprehensive patient profile that becomes the foundation of their treatment plan.

The functional medicine approach taken at the London Centre for Functional Medicine can help a wide range of conditions including :

• Digestive Conditions including SIBO/Candida

• Chronic pain

• Skin health

• Thyroid Issues

• Sleep conditions

• Cardiovascular conditions

• Women’s health conditions

• Metabolic issues e.g T2D 

Many of the patients we see at the London Centre for Functional Medicine have been dealing with persistent symptoms and have not found success with previous healthcare providers. To tackle the root causes of their condition, we use a holistic treatment approach that prioritises educating each patient about their own body and how to manage their symptoms. Our functional medicine methodology takes into account multiple factors that contribute to the illness looking at different factors that need to be taken into account to attain long lasting positive health outcomes.

Functional medicine is designed to complement conventional medical treatments, and our functional medicine practitioners emphasise collaboration and integration with conventional medicine. This approach takes into account the complete well-being of the patient and aims to address the underlying causes of disease by considering factors such as genetics, lifestyle, and environmental influences.

By combining the strengths of both functional and conventional medicine, patients can experience the benefits of a more personalized and comprehensive approach to their health. It is crucial for patients to maintain open communication with their healthcare providers to ensure effective coordination and the development of a well-rounded treatment plan tailored to their individual needs

It really depends on what the presentation is. For the most part, we look at 2-3 months. However, we expect symptoms to improve in weeks, which is then ongoing. In chronic cases, where patients have been unwell for many years, progress may take longer. We therefore recommend regular check-ins to allow both practitioner and patient to review what is working, make necessary adjustments, and support progress as it evolves over time.
