Functional medicine is a root-cause approach to health care. Instead of matching a symptom to a medication, we ask why the symptom is happening in the first place — and we use advanced testing to find out.In a conventional model, you might see a doctor for acid reflux and leave with a prescription for omeprazole. In a functional medicine model, we'd want to know what's actually causing the reflux — is it low stomach acid? An H. pylori infection? A motility issue? A food sensitivity? The answer changes the treatment entirely.At GHT, functional medicine means we look at the full picture — your gut, your hormones, your nutrient status, your stress load, your history — and we build a protocol around what your body actually needs. Not a generic plan. Not a guess. A targeted approach based on your labs and your case.
