Working with your body to promote healing
Our providers are traditionally trained and board certified Medical Doctors (MD) and Certified Nurse Practitioners (CNP) who believe that our bodies have an incredible ability to heal themselves when given the proper resources and support. Using best practices from both traditional and non-traditional medicine, we work with our patients to restore balance and promote healing.

Balanced Healthcare provides medical care using Functional Medicine practices to address the root cause of common medical problems as well as complex medical conditions.
Our approach uses both traditional and integrative practices but emphasizes supporting our bodies own innate healing systems. We try to treat patients as naturally as possible with targeted supplementation, diet, movement and herbal therapies and only resort to pharmaceutical medication when necessary.
When needed, we will employ the use of specialized laboratory testing to help in establishing the imbalance(s) and diagnosis. This allows a more precise and personalized treatment plan.
What is Functional Medicine?
Functional Medicine is a systems-oriented approach that seeks to understand and address the underlying cause of disease instead of merely treating the symptoms of disease. In a partnership with patients, we utilize a variety of nutritional, lifestyle and hormonal treatments to detect, quantify and correct a wide variety of common illnesses and dysfunctions and improve health. Functional Medicine looks beyond traditional treatments to help you be your healthiest self. We take the entire picture into consideration, including medical history, personal risk issues, medications, nutrition, exercise, lifestyle and environmental factors.
Common medical complaints we see include: chronic fatigue, trouble sleeping, unexpected weight gain or recurring infections. Or, you might be experiencing aches, pains, bloating and worsening menopausal symptoms. Many times, internal inflammation is to blame.

Fatigue
