What’s the Difference Between Functional Medicine and Integrative Medicine?
In one word – testing. We have access to thousands of functional tests which are available to you. Please be aware these are out-of-pocket expenses. It is possible to treat you with integrative medicine without additional testing, but functional medicine services will likely require testing. Contact our team if you have additional questions or concerns.
Please let us know if you only want to pursue an integrative medicine approach without additional testing.
