How functional medicine & nutrition supports whole-body health
At Integrated Health Associates, functional medicine and nutrition support are used to better understand the internal patterns that may be contributing to symptoms such as digestive discomfort, low energy, inflammation, food sensitivities, hormone-related concerns, and other ongoing health issues. Rather than focusing only on symptom relief, we look at what may be influencing the body more broadly so care can feel more relevant, more connected, and more useful over time. Learn how this philosophy fits within our integrative approach to healthcare.
Conditions commonly supported through functional medicine & nutrition
Functional medicine and nutrition support may be helpful for patients dealing with internal health concerns, ongoing symptoms, or overlapping patterns such as:
What to expect during functional medicine & nutrition care
Functional medicine and nutrition care begins with understanding your complete health picture. We take time to review your symptoms, health history, nutrition, lifestyle, and laboratory findings to create a personalized plan that supports your long-term wellness goals.
Comprehensive Health Consultation
We begin with an in-depth discussion about your symptoms, medical history, medications, lifestyle, nutrition habits, and wellness goals to better understand your overall health.
Health & Systems Evaluation
We review your health history, digestive patterns, sleep, stress, nutrition, medications, and existing blood work. Additional laboratory testing may be recommended when it helps provide greater insight.
Personalized Nutrition & Wellness Plan
Based on your evaluation, we develop a personalized plan that may include nutrition guidance, lifestyle recommendations, laboratory review, supplementation support, and other functional medicine strategies tailored to your needs.
Ongoing Progress & Plan Adjustments
We monitor your progress over time and adjust your care plan as your symptoms, health goals, and laboratory findings evolve to support lasting wellness.
How we evaluate your health concerns
Our evaluation focuses on identifying patterns that may influence digestion, energy, inflammation, nutrition, hormones, and overall health. Care begins by looking at your symptoms in context. Depending on your needs, evaluation may include review of health history, medications, blood work, symptom surveys, digestive patterns, nutrition habits, sleep considerations, and additional testing when appropriate.

How functional medicine & nutrition supports better health
Digestive symptoms, low energy, and inflammation are often connected to broader internal patterns rather than a single isolated issue. Functional medicine and nutrition support help us look more closely at those patterns so care can be shaped around what may be contributing underneath.
Gut Health
Care may include comprehensive systems evaluation with PMH, bloodwork, urinalysis, GI mapping or gut microbiome testing, food sensitivity labwork, dietary review, symptom survey analysis, and dietary and nutritional protocols tailored to digestive concerns.
Fatigue
Care may include systems review, medication and bloodwork review, additional hormone profile review when needed, food sensitivity evaluation, sleep considerations, adrenal support, and nutrition-based care designed to support energy and daily function.
Inflammation
Care may include evaluation of symptoms and labs, review of medications, additional blood tests or gut-related analysis when appropriate, targeted nutritional approaches, supplementation support, and joint-specific care considerations.
Functional medicine that fits your everyday life
The goal is not simply to add more information or more supplements. It is to help you better understand what may be shaping how you feel, then support your body in a way that feels practical, personalized, and sustainable. Whether you are trying to improve digestion, restore energy, reduce inflammation, or feel more balanced day to day, care is designed to fit into real life.
Understand your symptoms more clearly
Support your body more intentionally
Build a stronger foundation for long-term wellness
For some patients, functional medicine and nutrition support are the best place to begin. For others, they work alongside chiropractic care, restorative therapies, or recovery support as part of a broader plan. Our goal is to use the right combination of care based on the full picture of what you need.
Patient experiences about functional medicine & nutrition care
I've been coming for years and the staff is always friendly.
I’ve been coming for years and the staff is always friendly. Dr. Livingston always keeps up with new research to help various conditions and is a wonderful doctor!
They care about all of you.
What makes this place different is that they care about all of you — your stress, your diet, your sleep, your movement. I started because of fatigue and ended up transforming my whole approach to wellness. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.
Lasting results, not just temporary relief.
I came in with chronic back pain and left with a completely different understanding of my health. The team takes time to actually listen, explain everything, and build a plan that made sense for my life. The results have been lasting — not just temporary relief.
