What is functional medicine?
Functional medicine focuses on the body itself and how to make sure every part is being optimized. In this field, our specialists aim to find the root cause of your symptoms to treat the condition. We look at everything from adrenal fatigue, endocrine health, external stressors, sensitivity, and more. This makes your treatment personal since no disease or treatment interacts with each person the same way.

While there are many causes of chronic fatigue syndrome, here are some of the main ones:
- Viral infections
- Hormonal imbalances

How can I treat chronic fatigue syndrome?
