What is Functional Medicine?
Think of your health like a tree. Conventional dermatology often focuses on treating the visible symptoms, the leaves and branches, with medications.
Functional medicine digs deeper, addressing the root causes, the roots, like genetics and lifestyle, and nourishing the foundational elements of health, the soil, like nutrition and stress management. This approach fosters a healthier you from the ground up.
Our Approach
At The Magnolia Clinic, we believe that true health goes beyond simply treating symptoms. Our approach involves understanding the root causes of health issues and addressing them.
We emphasise patient education and therapeutic partnership. Health is not always a linear path; it's about striving to be 1% better every day, while also holding yourself in compassion and understanding during the challenging moments.
