"Functional Medicine is a medical practice or treatment that focuses on optimal functioning of the body and its organs. Functional medicine usually involves systems of holistic or alternative medicine."

At Ferguson Life Health Centers, our physicians provide functional medicine that will improve your health through treatments like physical medicine, detoxification, nutritional ivs, umbilical cord tissue, nutritional counseling, corrective exercises and more.

Who should consider functional medicine?

Have you visited your doctor, been treated and still feel sick? Or are you on medication that is only partially helping or has side effects? That’s when you should consider trying functional medicine, says Dr. Hyman.

Patients with a wide variety of conditions can benefit from a functional medicine approach, including:
