Functional Medicine in Firestone CO
Functional medicine addresses the underlying causes of health problems rather than using medication to cover up symptoms. By fixing the root cause of the problem, medication is normally not needed or can at least be decreased. Dr. Sam is able to run a full array of diagnostic blood work to show what is going on in a patient’s body and to determine why a patient is experiencing their symptoms. She can also look at previous tests from other doctors.
The History of Functional Medicine
Functional medicine has its roots in traditional Chinese medicine, western health care, and the latest in health care research, taking the best of each and combining them into an independent healing approach. This new approach is one that focuses on the cause of disease rather than focusing on symptoms. Through the concentration on symptoms, our health care system has gradually been converted to a disease care system, and functional medicine offers a viable approach to reverse this trend. To accomplish this, functional medicine practitioners view the body as a whole, taking into account nutritional, environmental, and genetic factors. Through active doctor-patient communication, functional medicine practitioners embrace the word doctor, which literally means teacher in Latin, allowing you to take control of your health.
"I've seen a few different chiropractors and go in for regular massages. I've been seeing Dr. Sam regularly for a couple months now and my quality of life has improved immensely! I love her fresh approach! It's like nothing I've experienced before! I'm in less pain and am getting better posture and she's helping me to improve my diet too! She's a godsend! Thank you so much Dr. Sam for all you do for us!"

"What I love most about Dr. Sam is that she really takes the time to understand what you are feeling and works specifically at adjusting that area. Too many chiropractors just crack your neck and you're done. Dr. Sam takes a look at your entire body alignment. I highly recommend her."
