If you’re like most people, you’ve probably heard of functional health but don’t really know what it is.
Functional health is a relatively new field of integrative healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of health problems instead of just treating symptoms.
Functional health is a branch of healthcare that focuses on the root cause of disease, rather than simply treating symptoms. It takes an integrative and individualized approach with the goal of restoring balance within the body.
Traditional medicine generally looks at the body as a collection of separate systems, each with its own set of diseases.
Functional medicine, on the other hand, views the body as one interconnected system. It also takes into account each person’s unique circumstances, including lifestyle, diet, environment, and genetics.
Functional health can be used to address a wide variety of chronic conditions, such as allergies, autoimmunity, digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, mental health conditions, and many more.
Functional health can help identify and address the root cause of disease, rather than simply treating symptoms. This can lead to improved overall health and well-being. Additionally, because functional health takes an individualized approach, it can be tailored to each person’s unique needs and circumstances.
Functional health is not without its critics. Some argue that it is not evidence-based (although it is) and that its interventions are not always backed by scientific research (although they are). Additionally, because functional health involves a more holistic and individualized approach, it can be more time-intensive than traditional medicine.
Functional health uses a variety of techniques to help restore balance within the body. This may include specialty laboratory tests, diety and lifestyle modifications, stress management techniques, EEG neurofeedback brain training, counseling, or natural interventions. Each person’s plan is tailored to their unique needs and circumstances.
Many people find that they can integrate functional health with conventional treatments such as medication or surgery in order to maximize their overall health and well-being. However, always speak with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your current treatment regimen.
During your first visit, Dr. Arango will ask you about your medical history, current symptoms, and lifestyle habits. He may then conduct a physical evaluation and order any necessary tests. Based on this information, he will develop a personalized intervention plan for you.
The cost of functional health varies depending on the complexity of your condition. Insurance providers will not cover the cost of functional health visits or interventions.
Whether you are suffering from a chronic illness or simply want to improve your overall health and well-being, functional health may be able to help. By looking at each person as an individual and addressing the root cause of disease, it can provide an effective and holistic approach to healthcare that is tailored to each patient’s unique needs.

Neurofeedback is a form of neurotherapy that uses EEG technology to train brainwaves to achieve a healthier state – kind of like exercise, but for the brain! EEG neurofeedback measures brainwave activity and gives you feedback on your child's performance in real time, through visual and/or auditory cues from videos or games.
