Functional Medicine In Shrewsbury
Research-Based, Effective Functional Treatments
There is nothing more frustrating than being sick and unwell. Most people cannot imagine how many ways lost health can impact your day to day activities. For many patients, they try anything and everything in hopes for some kind of relief. Some experience slight and/or temporary improvements, while others feel nothing seems to work. To make matters worse, often your doctor doesn’t have time or experience to offer more than a prescription, which often leaves you feeling helpless.
The good news is we provide a completely different perspective to your health and wellbeing. With our decades of experience, we offer a personalized solution using a science-based, natural approach that is focused on alleviating the underlying cause of your health challenges instead of simply treating your symptoms. We will customize a plan for you to take you from sick to well and will guide you along the way until you reach your wellness goals.

Why Do Patients Choose Us?
One of the main reasons patients choose us for Functional Medicine is because our approach is different. Unlike other facilities, we strive to get you well quickly with evidence-based interventions that do not rely on invalidated testing and/or treatment. We search for and identify the underlying, often hidden root cause(s) of your health challenges and provide succinct, results-oriented interventions to regain your health and wellness. Depending on your condition, practitioner preferences, and what you are looking to achieve – you can select a provider below to work with from our integrative wellness team. Please note, none of the clinical evaluations and interventions rendered by either provider should replace your traditional medical care. To provide the highest standard of care and to collaborate with our medical colleagues, we encourage you to seek evaluation from your medical doctor; either before or in combination with our consultations.
