What is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine represents a paradigm shift in healthcare, moving away from a disease-centered model to one that is patient-centered and holistic. Unlike traditional medicine, which often focuses on treating symptoms, Functional Medicine utilizes a unique approach to discover the root cause of certain health conditions and illnesses. The human body is so intricate and complex, it requires careful consideration for the person as a whole.
Functional medicine is a patient-centered, science-based approach that seeks to understand the patient’s history, lifestyle choices, genetics, and environmental factors to determine personalized, long-term, and sustainable solutions. By focusing on the root causes of illness and promoting a partnership between patient and practitioner, functional medicine offers a path to optimal health and well-being tailored to the individual’s unique needs.

Testimonials
Maureen - Arizona
“Working with Adenike was a blessing. I was going through a couple of different things and it was so beneficial to be heard and acknowledged.
She brought to my attention a few times that I was indeed moving forward when I felt like I was stuck. It was awesome to be reminded of my advancements; she lifted me and helped me see the light.
She listened with intent and always had deep intuitive questions that would make me go deeper to find the answers.
We ended each session with a plan of action for the week ahead, which is helpful for accountability.
Working with her was a pleasure”
Lisa - Ohio
“Adenike is an absolutely amazing nurse coach. She has such a way to connect with you in a respectful and calming manner. She has a way of helping you dig deeper into understanding your “inner workings” and the inner work identification for yourself. I am a different person now than what I was prior to getting coached by Adenike. I have stopped having a suffering mentality and have took hold of my life again, I have lost 12 pounds, started journaling, exercising, and practicing mindfulness more consistently. This all happened within 5 weeks of being coached with her. Imagine what this would look like after 3 months or a year! I cannot shout any louder from the rooftops that Adenike is the nurse coach you have been looking for. You need to book a session with her, like yesterday!”
Tasha - New York
“Before I started working with you, I was struggling with self-confidence as a nurse and embracing the positive feedback I was receiving. I was on the path of burning myself out. These sessions have allowed me to actually take breaks at work without feeling guilty, and I am truly grateful for that.
The coaching relationship didn’t feel robotic or stuffy. It didn’t feel intimidating, even virtual it felt like a warm and inviting space.
I recommend your coaching to Anyone! I think you would be great for nurses just starting out into the world or nurses who are in school to increase their knowledge and abilities”

Our Focus on the underlying factors contributing to your health concerns allows for improvement of existing conditions as well as offering preventative care by identifying and preventing risk factors that may affect your health in the future.

Unfortunately, no. We are a cash-based practice and do not accept insurance. We can provide a superbill upon request for possible out-of-network coverage.
Is Functional Medicine Safe?
Absolutely! Functional Medicine is a safe and natural way of dealing with the root cause of health challenges, focusing on lifestyle changes, stress management, natural remedies and supplementation that is tailored to your personal situation.

Most providers simply give a chemical, medicine or procedural cover up.

Functional medicine can benefit anyone, especially those with chronic conditions, complex health issues, or those looking to prevent illness and improve overall health.
How Long Does It Take To See Results With Functional Medicine?
The timeline for seeing results varies depending on the individual and the complexity of their health issues. Some patients may see improvements within a few weeks, while others may require several months of treatment.
Can I Use My FSA or HSA To Cover Program Costs?
Many patients use their FSA/HSA to pay for clinical fees, specialty tests, and supplements. Check with your FSA/HSA company for details.
