Whether you’re dealing with debilitating symptoms that disrupt your daily life or simply seeking personalized support to reach your health goals, we’re here to help you get back to doing the things you love. If you’ve been searching for answers and want a root-cause approach to wellness, you’re in the right place.
Hormonal Imbalances
In conventional medicine, many women are told their only option to address issues like painful periods, PMS, PMDD, PCOS, endometriosis, etc. is hormonal contraceptives. Please know there are numerous ways to support happy, healthy, balanced hormones beyond contraceptives. Hormonal imbalances can stem from numerous underlying issues like impaired detox pathways, environmental exposures, nutrient deficiencies, genetic variants, metabolic dysfunction, and more. At Acacia Functional Medicine, we strive to get to the root cause of hormonal imbalances through specialty labs, personalized nutrition, and lifestyle changes. We work with all types of hormonal conditions, including:
PCOS
Endometriosis
Infertility
Pre-conception
Menopause
PMS & PMDD
Painful periods
Estrogen dominance
Thyroid dysfunction
Adrenal dysfunction
& more
Preconception & Fertility
Preconception and pregnancy are profound stages of life that require optimal nutrition and balance to support both mother and baby. At Acacia Functional Medicine, we take a holistic, root-cause approach to reproductive health by addressing key factors like hormone balance, nutrient status, gut health, and environmental exposures in both partners. Through personalized nutrition, lifestyle adjustments, and targeted supplementation, it helps to optimize fertility, regulate hormones, and create the healthiest possible environment for conception and pregnancy. Supporting the body with essential nutrients not only enhances fertility but also nurtures the baby’s development and reduces the risk of complications. By focusing on whole-body wellness, functional medicine empowers individuals to feel strong, nourished, and prepared for a healthy pregnancy and beyond. We will support you throughout all stages of your fertility journey, including:
Preconception
Pregnancy
Postpartum
Lactation
& beyond
Autoimmune Conditions
Functional medicine and nutrition offer a powerful, root-cause approach to supporting autoimmune patients by addressing the underlying imbalances that contribute to inflammation and immune system dysfunction. Instead of merely managing symptoms, our approach looks at the whole person—identifying triggers like gut health issues, food sensitivities, chronic stress, and environmental toxins. Through personalized nutrition, lifestyle changes, and targeted supplementation, functional medicine helps to restore balance, reduce inflammation, and support the body’s natural healing processes. By nourishing the body with the right foods and addressing key imbalances, many autoimmune patients experience improved energy, reduced flare-ups, and improved quality of life. We work with all types of autoimmune conditions, including:
Hashimoto’s (autoimmune thyroiditis)
Type 1 Diabetes
Psoriasis
Vitiligo
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)
Celiac disease
Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
& more
Gastrointestinal Health
Gut health is at the core of overall well-being, playing a vital role in digestion, immune function, and even mood regulation. When imbalances occur—such as in conditions like SIBO, GERD, IBS, and food sensitivities—symptoms like bloating, reflux, pain, and fatigue can take a toll on daily life. Functional medicine takes a root-cause approach to healing the gut, identifying triggers like dysbiosis, inflammation, and nutrient deficiencies. Through personalized nutrition, gut-healing interventions, and lifestyle adjustments, we work to restore balance, strengthen the gut lining, and support a thriving microbiome. By addressing these underlying factors, many people experience lasting relief, better digestion, and an improved quality of life. We help patients experiencing all kinds of GI distress, including:
Dysbioisis (“leaky gut”)
Food sensitivities
Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO)
GERD
Inflammatory Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)
Chron’s disease
Diverticular disease
& beyond
Metabolic Health
Metabolic health is the foundation of energy, hormone balance, and long-term vitality, yet conditions like type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, and PCOS can disrupt this delicate system, leading to fatigue, weight struggles, inflammation, and other health challenges. Functional medicine takes a personalized, root-cause approach to restoring metabolic balance by addressing key factors such as blood sugar dysregulation, chronic stress, poor sleep, environmental toxins, and nutrient imbalances. Targeted nutrition, lifestyle adjustments, and strategic supplementation can help to improve insulin sensitivity, regulate hormones, and support sustainable energy levels. By nourishing the body with the right foods and optimizing metabolic function, many individuals find they can regain control of their health, reduce symptoms, and feel more vibrant and resilient in their daily lives. We help patients with all types of metabolic dysfunction, including:
Type 2 diabetes
Metabolic syndrome
Pre-diabetes
Insulin resistance
PCOS
Hyperlipidemia
& more
Environmental Dysfunction
Every day, our bodies are exposed to environmental toxins—from pesticides and heavy metals to plastics, pollutants, and endocrine disruptors—that can interfere with hormone balance, immune function, and overall health. Over time, this toxic burden can contribute to inflammation, fatigue, brain fog, and many other chronic symptoms. Functional medicine focuses on identifying and reducing toxin exposure while supporting the body’s natural detoxification pathways through targeted nutrition and lifestyle strategies. By incorporating nutrient-dense foods, antioxidants, and liver-supportive compounds, along with proper hydration and stress management, functional medicine helps the body process and eliminate toxins more efficiently. This approach empowers individuals to reduce their toxic load, restore balance, and feel more energized, clear-minded, and resilient. Minimizing your toxin load and improving detoxification pathways can be incredibly beneficial for many patients, including those with:
Certain cancers
Hormonal imbalances
Autoimmune conditions
Infertility
Obesity
Allergies
& more
