Functional Health uses a systems biology–based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease.
The focus of functional health is on client-centered care, promoting health as a positive vitality, beyond just the absence of disease.
Invest in Your Most Valuable Asset—Your Health
What can you expect when working with a functional health practitioner?
Functional health takes a comprehensive approach to prevention, health, and well-being. It treats root causes of disease and restores healthy function through a personalized client experience — all while being a vital partner to conventional medicine.
When you work with I-HAA, you can expect to feel seen and heard. A large part of functional health involves understanding who you are as an individual, your detailed personal and family history, the circumstances around your first symptoms, and the experiences you may have had with other healthcare providers.
