Our approach: Where traditional medicine focuses on the symptoms, Functional medicine looks to identify and treat the root cause of why the symptom is occurring in the first place. If you have a chronic headaches, a traditional physician will give you a prescription in order to minimize your headaches. We take this further and ask the question, "Why do you have a headache?" Through the use of state of art diagnostics we have helped patients identify the root cause such as dehydration, food sensitivities, inflammation, etc. The goal is to stop their symptoms from occurring. Functional medicine does not replace traditional medicine;

Chiropractic in Gainesville - is it right for me?
Gainesville Chiropractors specialize in the interactions between our nerves, muscles and skeleton and their effects on our general health. They diagnose problems and use manual therapy, including joint adjustment and manipulation, to prevent and treat them.

Many people who seek Gainesville chiropractic care do so for help with back pain, especially lower back pain, neck pain and headache. Spinal adjustment in Gainesville or chiropractic adjustment is the most common method of treatment--it refers to the manual adjustment by the chiropractor of the three-joint complex at the base of your spine with sufficient force to create a sensation of 'release', increasing the joint's range and reducing pain.

A treatment plan may involve one or more manual adjustments. Many chiropractors in Gainesville also incorporate nutritional counseling, exercise or rehabilitation into the treatment plan.

How is a Chiropractor licensed?
The Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) in Gainesville must complete four academic years at a school accredited by the Council on Chiropractic Education, as well as a one-year internship at an outpatient clinic owned and run by a chiropractic college. They are tested and certified by the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners, and licensed by the state in which they practice. To maintain licensure in most states, practitioners must complete a certain number of continuing education hours annually.

There are several schools of chiropractic adjustment techniques, although most chiropractors mix techniques from several schools. Some Applied Kinesiologists in Gainesville are qualified as Chiropractors.
