    What is Functional Medicine?

    Functional Medicine is a different way of looking at the body, it’s functions, and how they all work together. While traditional medical treatment compartmentalizes the body (with specialists for the heart, liver, or mind), functional medicine examines and treats the body as a whole. In functional medicine, all of the systems of the body are linked together, so that patterns of sickness can be explored and treated.

    Functional Medicine is patient centered

    Rather than disease centered, each patient is treated individually based on their unique needs, data, lifestyle, and history. Functional medicine focuses on positive outcomes, rather than controlling symptoms–in other words, it addresses the underlying causes of disease. With functional medicine, you’re taking an active role in your health. Below are areas of treatment we encounter on a regular basis.

    Pain Management

    When you feel pain, your body is sending you a signal you shouldn’t ignore. Pain is subject to many factors, including memories, expectations and emotions. The good news is that you can do something about all different kinds of pain – from simple to chronic.

    Weight Loss

    Weight loss isn’t easy. Various approaches are available diets are available. It’s important to look at the “big picture” of weight loss rather than concentrate on individual foods or your last meal.

    Spiritual

    Spirituality can positively impact stress, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and more. If you’re feeling a lack of purpose, this can also be impacted by your spirituality. At Calmglow, we look forward to showing you the connection between spiritual experiences and your health.

    Emotional Wellness

    Emotional health, much like mental health, is directly affected by your lifestyle choices. In other words, your lifestyle habits can make a direct impact on your emotional health.

    Mental Health

    Do you suffer from confusion, poor memory, or the inability to comprehend?

    Healthy Lifestyle

    Establishing healthy lifestyle habits is vital to living a fuller, active life. Below are tips for building up these habits from rest to nutrition and relationships.

    Digestive System

    All physical functions of the body are directly affected by diet. When your digestive system isn’t functioning properly the results can be nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, constipation, diarrhea, weight loss or gain, bloating, chest and breathing issues and more.

    Musculoskeletal System

    The musculoskeletal system includes the bones, muscles, and joints that form our limbs, torso, and neck. Any imbalances in your musculoskeletal system can cause aches and pains, among other ailments.

    Endocrine System and Neurotransmitters

    If you suffer from insomnia, poor memory, diabetes, thyroid issues, adrenal disorders, osteoporosis, or any similar diagnoses, Calmglow can offer you a different solution.

    Cardiovascular Health & Lymphatic System

    Struggle with high blood pressure and/or irregular heartbeat? Most people do not know how to control them without medication. After review of medical and family history, we can help you understand why you might be suffering with cardiovascular issues and help you feel better.

    Detoxification

    When toxins accumulate in the body, things start to go awry. If you suffer from ear pain, loss of peripheral vision, headaches, dizziness, fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, twitching, or any such symptoms, you might have some toxins that have built up in your body.

    Energy and Feeling Great

    If you feel like you can never catch up on sleep, feel sluggish, restless, or just fatigued in general, then could benefit from functional medicine. Your body produces energy and if something isn’t right, then you’ll never feel like yourself.

    Immune System

    When something isn’t right, your immune system responds with inflammation. Inflammation is a natural, life-saving response from your body—whether you’re suffering from a cut or scrape, a cold, or a chronic illness.

    What our
    patients
    are saying

    Always get clarity and understanding…

    Dianne has always help me understand the complicated issues of hypothyroidism, understanding the symptoms and long term effects. She has helped with my dietary needs and overall well being. Highly recommend if you are still feeling the symptoms even if your on traditional medications.

    The best part of talking with new patients…

    I have worked with Dianne Hinton at Calmglow for 4 years. I receive calls from new patients every day. I think the best part of talking with new patients is that I give them the knowledge and hope in knowing that I–like all of Dianne’s staff–was her patient before her employee. I think that says a lot about Dianne as a practitioner. She is very compassionate and caring towards each individual patient.

    — Cindy Toste

    Diane Hinton saved my life!

    After over a year of traditional doctors misdiagnosing and mistreating my illness, Diane immediately got it right. She identified the root cause of my illness, and I went from being chronically ill to healed and healthy in less than a year. Diane listens to and cares for her patients like no one I’ve ever known. I highly recommend her for diagnosing the true health issues, rather than just treating your symptoms.

    — Sarah Hayes

    My husband and I just love Calmglow …

    Just what is Functional Medicine?  Simply put…. I call it getting to the “cause” of a health issue. Rashes, High Pressure, Arthritis, Obesity, Insomnia, and Fatigue are a few of the issues she’s helped us with.  But what I really like best is; she doesn’t say “here, take this pill” and it’ll “treat the symptoms”.  She treats the “cause” of those symptoms so they truly go away without requiring “pills”.  Our bodies are healing, and the we feel we’re the healthiest we’ve been in a long time! What we’ve discovered about the manner in which our bodies “had been” functioning previously, from the in depth tests she recommends, was pretty astounding. We’ve learned so much since starting to see her as our practitioner, I would never choose to go back to an Allopathic doctor!
