THE
DIFFERENCE
Using the best functional, integrative, and traditional medical approaches we get to the root cause of your symptoms and provide whole-body healing.
What is functional medicine?
The aim of functional medicine is to get to the how and why you’re experiencing symptoms. Functional medicine starts with gaining a deep understanding of your unique genetic, biochemical, environmental, and lifestyle influences. This medical approach takes into consideration the complexity of disease – one condition often has different potential causes, and different triggers may result in similar conditions. This is why it’s imperative for providers to work closely with their patients to understand their unique circumstances.
What is integrative medicine?
Like functional medicine, integrative medicine emphasizes the importance of the physician-patient relationship. With integrative medicine, all factors that influence health are considered – mind, body, spirit, social relationships, and the environment. There is no one-size-fits-all treatment plan. A mix of traditional and alternative treatments is often used, with a focus on using natural and non-invasive treatments when possible.

Sleep evaluation
Poor sleep is often a root cause of why you don’t feel well. There is a deep interplay between your sleep quantity and quality and the key other factors that affect your health and well-being. As part of our wellness programs we often encourage patients to undergo a comprehensive sleep evaluation to ensure they are getting the rest they need.
Genetic testing
Genetic testing provides deep insight into what makes your body and mind unique. Your genetic code affects how your body reacts to its environment. Knowing your unique composition helps us target the most effective treatment options.
Gut health
Hormone optimization
Your hormones control most of your body’s functions. There are many causes of hormone imbalance, the most common of which is the natural aging process. As we age, some of our hormone levels naturally decline. Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy can help reverse hormone decline and decrease the signs of aging.
Lifestyle changes
At Z Wellness we believe in minimizing the use of invasive procedures and long-term medications. The right choices in simple lifestyle changes such as nutritional modifications, sleep routines, and exercise programs may be all you need to get your health back on track.
Supplements
Sometimes even the most healthy diets don’t provide us with all of the nutrients our bodies need. This is where dietary supplements come into play. It is important to work with a physician or nutrition expert before taking supplements. Not all supplements do what they promise, and many times we end up taking supplements we don’t truly need.
Stress management
It goes without saying that chronic stress can negatively affect your mental health. Research also shows that stress often has negative effects on your physical health. For example, chronic stress may increase inflammation and worsen the effects of chronic illness.
