Our Functional Medicine Approach

Functional medicine is looking through an entirely new lens where we ask the question WHY for the first time.  WHY do you feel so exhausted that you can barely get through the day? Hurt all over? Have brain fog?  You can fill in the blank. The Optimal Wellness for Life Center opened in 2013 and never looked back.

Over time, we have come to recognize common underlying triggers for chronic conditions such as the American diet, food sensitivities, gastrointestinal – immune imbalance (leaky gut), environmental toxins, hidden chronic infections and life stressors.  Our team has been witness to many life changing transformations.

Our Functional Medicine approach focuses on:

A team-based personalized patient-centered approach

  • Identifying the underlying triggers or root cause for chronic disease/symptoms

  • Integrating a science-based approach which incorporates the “whole person”

  • Lifestyle Medicine and Advanced Functional-Diagnostic testing

We are humbled and honored by those that come to us for help when they have been told that there is no hope.  Let us partner with you to find the root cause of your chronic symptoms.  Let today be the first step to the life that you have always hoped for.

“I just want to say thank you to Heather and Dr. Ruby for helping me so much. When I started with them a little over five months ago I was having extreme fatigue, muscle aches, diarrhea, leg cramps that woke me at night and insomnia. From the beginning they both took their time and listened. They worked to develop a program that helped me and I am now almost totally recovered.”
