Chiropractic-based Functional Medicine does not seek to diagnose or treat any medical condition(s), other than those of the human musculoskeletal syatem…only a licensed Medical or Osteopathic Doctor is allowed to do that in Texas.  What Functional Medicine does hope to accomplish, is to investigate and determine the etiology of any structural or functional pathology or other abnormality of the biomechanical system, and manage the state of the biochemical physiology, without the use of incisive procedures or drug therapy.  Regardless of the system, organ, or tissue, the entire human is ultimately broken down into biochemical reactions and processes on a cellular level.  By detecting, correcting, removing interference, and maintaining proper biochemistry on such a deep level, the entirety of the human physiological condition including the system of muscles and tendons and ligaments and bones and joints and associated tissues and nerves that move the body and maintain its form may be managed, and improved with much success utilizing advanced nutritional concepts such as homeopathic and botanical medicines, dietary & lifestyle modification, Chiropractic Manipulation, and complementary therapies such as Acupuncture.  In this regard, we may render an opinion on the overall state of a patients’ health, and provide appropriate care options.  Referrals to other qualified healthcare professionals are made whenever necessary.
