How Does It Work?

Young Menstruating Women

During this stage of life, you may struggle with pain or discomfort associated with heavy cramping or heavy bleeding. Some women may deal with more serious complications such as fibroid formation or Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. These complications result in unbalanced hormone levels, which may then lead to a host of other symptoms. The root of many of these issues is an abnormal stress response. This may be triggered by emotional stress, weight related stress, or a myriad of other abnormal physiological responses. Our doctors can help you make lifestyle choices to reduce your emotional, physical, and chemical stresses, allowing your body to heal itself.

Menopausal Women

The symptoms experienced by women going through menopause are well documented and vary from person to person. We cannot avoid this stage of life, so our goal with functional medicine is to support this change by reducing symptoms and supporting your body's natural pathways. While traditional medicine focuses generally on the replacement of certain hormones, functional medicine seeks to naturally support this transition. This can include changing your diet and participating in physical activity to relieve stress triggers. By specifically assessing these stressors, your body is prepared to accept various natural alternatives that reduce emotional, physical, and chemical stress.

Post-Menopausal Women

After menopause, many women continue to experience menopausal symptoms but to a greater extent. Our goal at this stage in life is to reduce these symptoms. Many women believe that hormone replacement therapy is the only viable option, but functional medicine offers a better starting point. By clearly identifying precise stress triggers and the underlying cause of the symptoms, our doctors are able to design a custom wellness plan to improve your symptoms and overall health. While certain symptoms come with aging, we can certainly design a plan that helps restore your body to its vitality and vigor of years ago.

Eddie R.

“Although I am a new patient of the Institute for Functional Health, I couldn’t be more satisfied with my decision to seek them out and chose them to help attain my goal to be in the best optimal health possible at the age of 55. After some lab work and consultation, they had a plan for me to start this journey and explained how we would tackle this process. Eric Salinas was extremely knowledgeable as was the rest of the team led by Dr. Torres. I am excited to get started and see results knowing that Eric Salinas is there to back me up with any questions I may have during this journey.”

“I feel like I get much better care at the Institute for Functional Health than from my regular doctors. Much better. Dr.Salinas seems to actually care about me and my health. He is very knowledgeable and welcomes emails with my questions. He set me up with a personal contact with one of the trainers when I had difficulty with some of the exercises on the app. I am regaining my health day by day.”
