Metabolic & Nutritional Functional Medicine

Transform your metabolic health

At Holistic Specialists we apply the latest in functional medicine, addressing the underlying causes of your Insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes or other high and low blood sugar disorders (instead of just treating symptoms) so you can get well and stay well without unnecessary drugs or surgery.

We use cutting-edge diagnostic tools to find the problem, and nutritional therapy, herbal medicine, supplements, stress management, detoxification, lifestyle changes, and only in some cases when necessary, we recommend prescription medications to eliminate triggers and restore proper function and balance.
