What is Functional Medicine anyways?
Functional medicine believes that medicine should be individualized. Rather than solely focusing on the diagnosis of a client, Functional Medicine is interested in finding the root cause of the dis-ease. Using a systems-oriented approach, such as lifestyle and environmental factors i.e. diet, stress and exposure to toxins the root cause can ultimately be revealed.
Meet Lisa Heinbaugh
Lisa Heinbaugh, LPTA, CHC, is the founder and owner of Coaching Up Wellness. For the last 15 years, she has worked in various healthcare settings as a Licensed Physical Therapy Assistant. This experience in healthcare has given her a desire to go even deeper with her clients. While working through her own personal wellness journey she was introduced to Functional Medicine where she experienced healing at its best! Becoming a believer in this practice, she was inspired and empowered to become a Certified Health Coach. Lisa became certified by the National Society of Health Coaching with emphasis on motivational interviewing in 2019. She is currently enrolled in the School of Applied Functional Medicine to receive further certification in Applied Functional Medicine Coaching (AFMC).
Lisa is a wife and mother of two children. She loves to research information and admits to being a “nerd at heart”. She loves walking outdoors, skiing, boating, and has found a new love in yoga! Being a mom, snuggling, and getting “cozy” with her kids brings her joy in life, but she stays grounded and finds ultimate peace in her faith with Jesus.
Have you ever experienced a 5 to 10 minute doctor visit?
Walking out of those types of visits can make you feel confused and unfulfilled. Functional Medicine practitioners focus on spending time with their clients, 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. Not one person is the same and nor should their treatment of care.
What is Functional Medicine anyways?
Functional medicine believes that medicine should be individualized rather than solely focusing on the diagnosis a person may have. Functional Medicine is interested in finding the root cause of the dis-ease of the body rather than just applying a “band-aide”. By using a systems-oriented approach to locate the “why” of dis-ease, such as lifestyle and environmental factors i.e. diet, stress and exposure to toxins, the root cause of dis-ease in the body can be identified and ultimately healed.
Be EMPOWERED
Figuring out the “why” I feel this way and then the “how” it can be resolved is empowering all by it self! The process becomes like a puzzle. We explore your symptoms and then find any missing pieces, or in other words, what the body is lacking, then connect them together into a way that fits the picture of your lifestyle. At times, in order to get an even clearer picture, the use of comprehensive or specialty testing via biochemical markers (lab work) are used. Clarity, education, and seeing results is the empowerment you need to MAINTAIN wellness.
“You know that life has more in store for you than feeling mediocre, trust your instincts, take charge of your health and be empowered to find the healthy and well YOU!”
