Sick and Tired

Patients often come to us because they are sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. Many have been given some form of diagnosis, but many others simply don’t understand or know what is wrong with them other than that they feel unwell and have done so for some time. They are often exhausted all the time and feel something is wrong, but their GP can’t seem to figure out what that something actually is. If this sounds like you, Functional Medicine Associates aim is to uncover where and why your body is not functioning properly (hence the name “Functional Medicine”).

Years of Unanswered Symptoms

Many of our patients come to us after years of suffering without clear answers. They've been feeling unwell, exhausted, and in pain, often receiving only partial diagnoses or none at all. If you’ve been told everything is ‘normal’ but still feel something is wrong, we’re here to help. Through functional medicine, we uncover why your body isn't functioning properly and create a personalised plan to help you heal, addressing the root causes of your chronic symptoms.

We eventually start to lose the energy, freshness, and drive that we took for granted in our younger years. We gain weight, but lose memory and increasingly rely on coping strategies that help us in the short term – but that can increase the risk to our overall health conditions as time progresses.

FMA’s Executive Experience

For nearly two decades, we have partnered with board-level executives, high-net-worth individuals, senior leadership teams, and captains of industry. We have gained a wealth of experience and understanding in how senior career roles can lead to corporate burnout symptoms and have a direct effect on physical health conditions. We help executives who are burnt out, stressed out, or those who may already be attempting to live healthier lifestyles but are bombarded with conflicting lifestyle information, causing confusion and unrealistic expectations.

Simplifying through Functional Medicine

Our role is to simplify and individualise these messages with information that teaches, motivates, and contributes to successful and positive health outcomes. We utilise many of the latest advances in medical care, genetic, nutritional, and exercise lab testing – n approach that maximises both short and long-term improvements in health care. This is based on the physical, emotional, and psychological resources that each individual has, addressing chronic diseases often exacerbated by corporate job burnout.

Functional Medicine Pathway

Our experience has shown that at least two to three cycles of our FMA programme has been most effective. After that time, many executives continue to work with us on a longer-term preventative health basis. One of our executives has partnered with us for over 20 years. If you are prepared to commit to gaining back that precious commodity “Time”, we will undertake a journey together for you to achieve optimal health and business performance.

We approach corporate burnout with a holistic approach through integrative medicine. As functional medicine specialists and IFM certified practitioners, we focus on uncovering the root causes of corporate burnout and related health conditions. Our team includes functional doctors, medicine practitioners, and health coaches who collaborate to provide personalised medical care tailored to your specific needs.

Whether you're dealing with corporate burnout or other chronic diseases, our comprehensive approach is designed to restore your health and vitality, ensuring long-term success both in your personal life and career.

The Bredesen Protocol™

The Bredesen Protocol™ is a research-driven, groundbreaking medical care, lifestyle, and nutritional-based approach to treating and reversing cognitive decline and early stage Alzheimer’s. Professor Bredesen’s research has shown that Alzheimer’s disease is not necessarily an irreversible Neurological disorder but a metabolic disease, which we can influence dramatically, especially through the application of a functional medicine approach.

As functional medicine specialists and IFM certified medicine practitioners, we have had several years of experience understanding how to individualise and apply the Bredesen Protocol™ with patients. We have learned through those experiences that our lifestyle choices are likely much more important than our genetic predisposition. With this in mind, concentrating on lifestyle choices has really helped patients reduce the need for overwhelming and prohibitively expensive lab testing and protocols.

Our holistic approach to cognitive decline and cognitive development in late adulthood focuses on optimising lifestyle, diet, and integrative medicine to support brain health and improve cognitive ability. We work closely with patients to create personalised plans that address their unique cognition health needs, ensuring that they receive comprehensive medical care tailored to their specific situation. Our team, which includes functional doctors and health coaches, is dedicated to improving overall health care outcomes.

We will simplify and individualise a programme with information that teaches, motivates and contributes to successful and positive ageing outcomes.
