A Functional Medicine Approach to Chiropractic Treatment
12 CE Hours Available
Functional Medicine is a systems biology–based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Each symptom or differential diagnosis may be one of many contributing to an individual’s illness. A diagnosis can be the result of more than one cause. A cause such as inflammation may lead to a number of different diagnoses. The precise manifestation of each cause depends on the individual’s genes, environment, and lifestyle, and only treatments that address the right cause will have lasting benefit beyond symptom suppression.
The purpose of this course is to expose you to Functional Medicine and give you the ability to see how resistant conditions like arthritis, chronic fatigue, diabetes, heart problems, insomnia, depression and many mysterious conditions and pains can be solved.
Chiropractors that practice Functional Medicine help many people return to wellness after literally years of health problems and poor and unsolvable health conditions by other types of doctors. In Functional Medicine, a doctor will combine advanced laboratory testing with evidenced based, sound treatment principles and have success solving these hard cases. We will look at actual cases, see what the underlying cause of the condition is, and then see the results of treatment. A truly exciting and fun way to practice!
