Functional Medicine
What is Functional Medicine?
Functional Medicine is a holistic, root-cause-focused approach to health and healing. Unlike conventional medicine, which often treats symptoms in isolation, functional medicine looks at the whole person—analyzing lifestyle, nutrition, genetics, and environment—to identify and address the underlying causes of illness.
At Cupping Point, we integrate functional medicine principles into our treatments, using therapies like acupuncture, cupping, acupressure, and lifestyle coaching to restore balance and promote long-term wellness.
How Functional Medicine Works?
Instead of masking symptoms, Functional Medicine takes a deep dive into your health history, diet, stress levels, and body functions to find the true source of imbalance. Our approach focuses on:
✅ Root Cause Healing – Understanding why symptoms occur, not just treating them
✅ Whole-Body Balance – Connecting different systems (digestive, immune, hormonal, nervous)
✅ Personalized Treatment – Tailoring solutions based on your unique health needs
✅ Natural & Preventative Care – Using non-invasive therapies, lifestyle changes, and nutrition
How Functional Medicine Differs from Conventional Medicine
| Functional Medicine | Conventional Medicine |
|---|---|
| Treats the root cause of illness | Manages symptoms |
| Focuses on whole-body health | Specializes in individual body parts |
| Uses acupuncture, cupping, natural therapies | Relies on medications & surgery |
| Prevention-focused | Disease-focused |
| Addresses diet, environment, and stress | Often overlooks lifestyle factors |
