Functional Medicine
You are unique … truly one of a kind! Your biochemistry. Your nutritional status. Your hormone levels. Your energy level. Your immune function. Your cardiovascular risks. Your ability to deal with stress. Your cognitive function. Your memory. Your exposure to toxins. Everything about you is unique.
When something goes wrong, the “fix” that works for you may not be (indeed, probably isn’t) the “fix” that might work for someone else. Something about your unique system — your physiology, your nutrition, your hormonal milieu, etc. — begins to malfunction. What used to function well, now doesn’t. At Living With Intention, with his training in FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE, Dr. Elliott works to determine the heart of the matter, the true “root cause” of your dysfunction. Then, as naturally as possible, he works to restore you to optimal function. In fact, this, in a nutshell, is why it’s called FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE in the first place.
At Living With Intention, Dr. Elliott can help you recapture the vitality, energy, and wellness you used to enjoy, when you were younger, when all systems were functioning well. In this initial 90-minute appointment, Dr. Elliott will review and discuss with you your:
Initial MD Consultation
Additionally, you will be offered, free of charge, a comprehensive body composition analysis. From this you will learn your weight-related cancer risks for as many as six specific cancers, your ideal body weight, your current basal metabolic rate (daily calorie burn rate), body fat composition, and lean body weight.
At the conclusion of your initial evaluation, Dr. Elliott will provide you with recommendations for further evaluation, if any are indicated, to get at the true “root cause” of your particular concern(s). A few days following your appointment, you will receive, in writing, a brief review of these recommendations for your personal records.
