Mental Health

Dealing with mental illness can be stressful. Biochemical imbalances in the body can affect the brain in many ways causing fluctuations in mood, behavior, focus, and cognition. An integrative and functional medicine approach can help identify the unique biochemistry of each individual, in the process, discovering the genetic and nongenetic influences that cause these imbalances.
This type of approach includes correlating the imbalances in the body to the neurotransmitters responsible for the disturbances in the brain and how they are connected to the individual’s current symptoms. Everyone’s body composition is unique, consequently, making this approach individualized. It’s a process that takes some time and work and eventual resolution.
