What Is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine is a modern, patient-centered model of care that looks deeper than symptoms. Instead of asking only “What medication treats this problem?” functional medicine asks “Why is this happening in the first place?” By exploring genetics, environment, lifestyle, and nutrition, functional medicine doctors uncover the root causes of illness.
At our San Antonio clinic, this approach means we don’t just offer a one-size-fits-all solution. Every patient has a unique story, and functional medicine respects that individuality.
Why Choose Functional Medicine in San Antonio?
Living in San Antonio means having access to excellent hospitals and medical centers, but many patients feel traditional medicine moves too quickly, with limited time for questions or personalized care. Functional medicine fills this gap by:
-
Taking the time to listen to your full health history
-
Offering in-depth testing and assessments
-
Creating customized treatment plans
-
Integrating natural and conventional therapies
-
Empowering you with tools for long-term wellness
Patients across San Antonio choose functional medicine because they want a doctor who looks beyond lab numbers and addresses the whole person—mind, body, and lifestyle.
Conditions Functional Medicine Can Address
Functional medicine is especially valuable for patients with chronic conditions or unexplained symptoms. At our San Antonio clinic, Dr. Aimee helps patients manage and improve:
-
Digestive disorders (IBS, bloating, reflux)
-
Autoimmune conditions (Hashimoto’s, rheumatoid arthritis)
-
Chronic fatigue and low energy
-
Hormonal imbalances (thyroid, adrenal, menopause)
-
Anxiety, depression, and brain fog
-
Skin conditions (eczema, acne, psoriasis)
-
Weight management challenges
-
Cardiovascular risk factors (blood pressure, cholesterol, inflammation)
By focusing on root causes, functional medicine offers hope where conventional approaches may have stalled.
A Personalized Approach to Healing
Every treatment plan at our San Antonio functional medicine clinic is customized. Instead of quick fixes, we take time to identify patterns and triggers in your health. This might include:
-
Advanced Testing: Nutrient levels, hormone panels, gut microbiome analysis
-
Nutrition & Lifestyle: Guidance on food choices, stress management, sleep optimization
-
Targeted Supplements: Evidence-based vitamins and natural therapies to support healing
-
Collaborative Care: Working alongside conventional medicine when prescriptions or procedures are necessary
This personalized model helps patients feel truly heard and supported in their health journey.
