Welcome to Integrative Family Medicine
We embrace the principles of integrative medicine, which acknowledges the holistic and unique nature of individuals, and examines the multifaceted causes of disease.
What we do
We believe in treating the cause of the problem, not just masking the symptoms, through tailored, patient-centred medical interventions that treat people with imbalances and dysfunctions.
We use advanced diagnostic testing such as DNA and toxicology tests to identify genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors that affect a person's health.
Treatment modalities starts with nutritional and lifestyle changes, as well as nutraceuticals, botanicals and pharmaceuticals to treat the patient holistically.
We also advocate and support preventive medicine.
20% of the world’s population suffers from an autoimmune disease such as diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid disease, systemic lupus erythematosus and multiple sclerosis.
Epigenetics considers environmental factors that influence your genetic predisposition to express as disease. Nutrigenomic testing embraces a gene-based personalised diet and lifestyle.
Abnormal cortisol levels can manifest as chronic fatigue and stress, burnout, anxiety, heart palpitations and abnormal sweating. Testing and monitoring these levels helps to maintain optimum wellness.
Anxiety can sometimes mimic the clinical expression of Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Careful diagnosis and a tailored diet can complement current treatments.
Food intolerances can present as bloating, gut discomfort or skin reactions. Considerably more people suffer from a food intolerance than from a food allergy.
