Natural Treatments For Joint Pain
Western medicine and its doctors are some of the finest in the world for dealing with acute care such as the diagnosis and care of trauma or short-duration illnesses in need of urgent care.
But to stave off chronic problems or diseases, control or even reverse disease states, to optimize ones health, and to train people in the art and science of wellness and self-healing, functional medicine is better suited for improving quality of life as well as longevity.
Functional medicine is individualized medicine in its modern form. It deals with primary prevention and underlying causes of chronic disease rather than simply removing or masking symptoms once they arise. Functional medicine emphasizes true healing, care of the person rather than a disease, and a partnership of shared responsibility between doctor and patient, with the patient being the hero in their own journey to regain health.
At Longevity Wellness, we address the underlying causes of disease, using a systems-oriented approach and engages both patient and physician in a therapeutic partnership. Practitioners spend time with their patients, listening to their histories and looking at the interactions among genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term health and complex, chronic disease. In this way, the functional approach supports the unique expression of health and vitality for each individual.
Our mission is to help as many patients as possible enjoy a higher quality of life by improving their musculoskeletal pain and injuries with natural treatment options, thereby prolonging or eliminating the need for surgical intervention.
