As a gardener, I have seen the way living organisms can struggle without the proper ingredients. I have also seen how plants will fight to thrive. As humans we are not dramatically different from this hopeful fact.
The journey is not easy, but it is my fundamental belief that your body wants to (and can) heal. We just need to give it the right ingredients and habitat to thrive. This may mean extraordinary shifts and a level of commitment you have not given before.
When working with a functional medicine provider, you should always expect labs reviewed in addition to symptoms and changes recommended to your diet, lifestyle and supplement regimen.
We want to work with you and your schedule, finances and general reality regarding what is possible. Sometimes this means we take baby steps along the way, that's ok!
When it comes to labs, we have a range of options that span from using your routine bloodwork to specialty labs which target a particular body system.
There are a handful of specialty labs we use frequently that give us valuable information in order to help you on your journey. These labs can be costly and so we always discuss the top priority, if a specialty lab seems warranted. Often times, we can make a dramatic impact by simply looking at routine bloodwork under the lens of optimal vs suboptimal.
Lets be clear about what we do not offer, to be sure we begin this relationship on the same page.
Most importantly, Dr. Emma does not have a license that allows her to prescribe. Which means she will give you recommendations on botanical/herbal remedies along with nutritional supplements/approaches to supporting the body.
Dr. Emma is not a dietician, which means we will not be creating a shopping list and specialty meal plan guidance for your journey. We give patients resources on general plan examples for any recommended diet=, but if additional care is needed in this category it is best to work with a functional dietician
