I confess that my BS detector quivers when a health practitioner uses a question-begging term like "functional medicine" to describe their approach.
A question for you to ponder:
Do you know of any health practitioners who advocate "dysfunctional medicine" or "non-functional medicine"?
Caveat emptor.

Well functional medicine is just looking at the root cause of your issues and not focusing on treating the symptoms. They still use traditional medicine if needed. They view the body as a whole system and treat it as such to get everything in balance.
