Functional Health
Restores communication between the body’s core systems through care that realigns the spine, supports the mind, and nourishes from within.
What is Functional Health
Functional Health is an integrative, holistic approach that uses the mind-body connection to achieve an individual’s optimal wellness. By speaking to the brain and body in their natural languages, the body’s intrinsic feedback loops and self-healing ability are triggered, restoring physical and emotional functioning.
At Curis, we use mental health, chiropractic, and functional nutrition to integrate the brain, reset the nervous system, restore gut functioning and promote overall mind-body wellness.
Functional health looks at precursors, building blocks. It gets at the relationships between source and symptom. Different sources can create the same symptom and the same symptom can come from different sources. For this reason, we look at all of your symptoms and the data from your body to determine the best course of care.
