Alternative Health Care

Functional and Integrative

Functional integration and holistic health are very similar. Both use a personal approach that works with a patient to not only improve their symptoms, but to find why they exist in the first place and address those causes. Integration combines conventional testing with holistic treatments. There is a primary emphasis on treating your body and mind through nutrition, exercise, diet and in-office evaluations and/or treatments.

As an alternative office to medicine, New Leaf utilizes a functional approach. We don’t blindly test until we understand why a person is experiencing specific symptoms and conditions. It’s a systematic approach from a lengthy history read before your initial visit. Followed by an exam based on your history and further questions that can’t be addressed from paperwork alone. Following these tests, our doctors customize personalized treatments to address the root cause of each condition. Functional integration is different from other practices because the emphasis is on the why? Rather than a treatment for the symptoms. Yes, we want you feeling good as soon as possible. Our patients thrive on us being able to get them to function so they aren’t going from doctor to doctor just for relief. But instead efficient management of their condition. For example, you could have a diagnosis and treatment plan and feel better when you go to your current doctor—but what happens if you stop your therapy or treatment? Most of the time, it comes back. So, was the cause discovered? The answer is generally, “no.”

Functional integration looks at how and what and also asks why? Research into each patient’s medical history and family background are a priority. Our programs includes a dive into your genetic makeup because of its importance to evaluate for present and future health.

No matter how big or small, every detail of your personal health story plays a part in your complete health. Our doctors are committed to uncovering the cause of symptoms. Once discovered, our doctors treat underlying causes to reduce or reversing chronic diseases. During your journey, New Leaf provides the gold standard for testing and treatment to every individual. We use the most up-to-date methods of alternative, functional integration to get answers and results.

New Leafs’ patients appreciate our patient-centered, root-cause approach to your health. New Leaf Health provides an easy-to-understand approach to navigating through the diverse world of holistic health and help our patients improve and heal naturally.
