A new approach in healthcare is taking root here in Fond du Lac!
Our small, growing wellness company is proud to provide a transformative approach to healthcare—one that prioritizes the interconnectedness of your body, mind, and spirit.
Our approach – grounded in the principles of functional medicine, nutrition, holistic health, and compassionate care – is reshaping how countless local individuals think about wellness and disease prevention.
Understanding Functional Medicine – getting to the root cause.
Functional medicine is an individualized, YOU-centered (client-centered), science-based approach that empowers you and our Into The Woods practitioners to work collaboratively to address the underlying causes of any health concerns and promote your optimal well-being. Unlike conventional medicine, which often focuses on symptom management with prescription drugs, functional medicine aims to identify and treat the root causes of health issues.
By examining your history, genetics, environment, and lifestyle factors, our Into The Woods Wellness functional medicine doctors, nurses, and health coaches are able to develop personalized wellness plans. These customized-to-you-plans are part of our Personalized Wellness Program and include dietary changes, stress management techniques, supplements, and other natural interventions designed to restore balance and health.
Functional medicine in action:
Example 1: Chronic Fatigue and Digestive Issues
Symptoms:
Low energy level and digestive concerns – bloating, acid reflux, and/or irregular bowel movements.
Functional Medicine Plan:
As a part of our Personalized Wellness Program, we review your comprehensive health history, lab/test results, and current prescriptions, lifestyle, habits, etc. After going through our Program and implementing their personalized wellness plan – which often include food and dietary changes, detox, supplements, lifestyle modifications (like stress management), movement, and more – most clients experience significant changes. IV Nutrient Therapy provides a great supplemental support for energy, immune system defense building, and more!
Outcome:
Increased energy levels, digestive issues being largely resolved, and experiencing an overall more balanced sense of health. We’ve also had numerous individuals be able to decrease or stop prescriptions (related to past chronic symptoms). Our root cause approach gets to the root cause of your heath issue(s) AND helps you avoid common, unfortunate side effects from prescription drugs.
Example 2: Autoimmune Disease
Symptoms:
Joint pain, stiffness, and inflammation.
Functional Medicine Plan:
Similar to above, as part of our Personalized Wellness Program, we review your comprehensive health history, lab/test results, and current prescriptions, lifestyle, habits, etc. This includes environmental exposures too. During the program and process, anti-inflammatory diet changes (after identifying food triggers), supplement support, detox, stress reduction, BEMER therapy, and more all add up to create a personalized and effective root cause approach to chronic disease.
Outcome:
Reduction in joint pain and inflammation, improved mobility, and as a result, an overall improvement in quality of life!
