The difference between conventional and functional medicine

Hey my friends. In this video I want to share with you the difference between conventional healthcare and what we do at Living Proof Institute. So the first thing that I want you to note is the paradigm through which we operate. Our paradigm is not that your body is broken, it is that your body is wise. And it's with that infinite wisdom that it has the capability and capacity to heal itself. Next, our approach isn't to manage symptoms, is to address the root and underlying cause of what's going on that's creating the imbalance in your body that's leading to the dysfunction. Next is our intervention. It's not going to be pills or surgeries. However, it's going to be skills that we teach you so that you can function optimally and have a long term sustainable and also teachable solution that you're going to have regards to your health. In terms of communication, typically it's minimal when you work with a conventional practice. With us, it's meaningful. We're going to reach out, we're going to connect, we're going to collaborate with you in a truly meaningful and unique way. Our focus isn't to react to illness, it's to create health. We're not running away from something, we are running towards creating your best life. In terms of self belief, you're going to leave instead of feeling hopeless, you're going to leave feeling hopeful that, that there are solutions that are natural, that align with your values. Next, in terms of side effects, many drugs and medical interventions cause new symptoms. In our case, you're probably gonna get a new wardrobe cause your body composition's gonna change, your confidence level is gonna change. The adventures that you go on and the things that you do are gonna change. So be prepared for that. In terms of responsibility, instead of delegating that responsibility to a drug or, or to the practitioner, we self empower you. And then it's through that self empowerment that you have the greatest capacity to create health. Our appointment times, instead of being eight minutes, are usually 30 minutes to an hour. So we can truly listen to your story. You can be seen and you can feel heard. And you can also get great confidence in knowing that your story is being shared. It's being deeply listened to. And there's so much in that story that we can unpack to help you feel your best. Our partnership isn't one way, it truly is a two way relationship and partnership where we work together to create a collaborative and meaningful outcome for you. The treatments that we use are not the latest drug, which oftentimes used as experiments for the first several years. Instead, we're applying timeless wisdom to your case so that you have a solution that you can use for the rest of your life. Not something that you're going to find out a few years from now was the wrong decision for your beautiful body. In terms of coaching, we do provide coaching. Unlike a traditional conventional practice, which may not, and you're kind of left to your own devices many times tend to figure it out on your own. And in terms of investment, we provide a far more affordable solution to. But most importantly, our solution is the one that you're looking for. So if you wanna work with a group of people that believe in your body's innate wisdom, that find the root cause, that teach you skills, that have meaningful communication, that help you create health, that leave you feeling hopeful, that help you invest in a new wardrobe so you can show your beautiful body off to the world, that self empower you, that listen to you, that to partner with you on this journey, sharing timeless wisdom and coaching, then we provide the most valuable solution that's out there. So if this is you and you're interested in taking your health to a whole new level, we'd love to speak with you and help you feel your absolute best in alignment with your values so that you can truly discover who you are.
