100 Percent of Fibromyalgia Cases are Treatable

Fibromyalgia affects more than 5 million people in the US alone and women are seven times more than men to be diagnosed. It is 100 percent treatable with the correct approach.

Fibromyalgia is something that has been affecting many people over the past 10-20 years, and the primary reason I got into functional medicine!  I could not believe people were suffering with something that we had no answers for and the best we had was giving them medications that, at best, alleviated a few of the symptoms.  Then I heard about functional medicine.  Functional medicine is using state-of-the-art laboratory testing to determine the underlying cause of disease and dysfunction. This is different than our western medical approach of lets find the medication that will mask the symptom!  I don't believe anyone is deficient in Lipitor, Vioxx, etc, but many people ARE deficient in the basic nutrients that maintain every vital physiologic function in our bodies!!  Many people suffer from things associated with fibromyalgia which we can also treat with this same approach such as: 1) depression 2) insomnia 3) anxiety and 4) fatigue.

If you or someone you know is suffering with any of these please have them contact us for a free consult to learn more about how we can help.  The suffering doesn't have to continue and as Dr. Marty Hinz, the medical doctor who has been studying this approach for the last 20 years at University of Minnesota Medical School states, 100% of fibromyalgia cases are treatable with this approach!
