What is integrative medicine?

Integrative medicine combines the best of functional medicine and Western medicine to address the root causes of health issues. It focuses on personalized care, blending advanced diagnostics, lifestyle counseling, and natural therapies to support lasting change in your health and well-being.

Dr. Johnson specializes in addressing:

  • Gut health issues (SIBO, IBS, leaky gut)
  • Hormonal imbalances (menopause, thyroid issues)
  • Mold toxicity and detoxification
  • Chronic fatigue
  • Stress and energy management

Functional medicine looks at the underlying causes of health concerns through advanced lab testing, a whole-body approach, and personalized treatment plans. In our integrative approach, we use functional medicine principles to guide lab testing (gut, hormone, thyroid, and micronutrient testing) and design treatment programs tailored to your needs.

Breema bodywork is done with the recipient comfortably clothed, laying on their back on a soft carpet. The recipient is stretched in ways that increase flexibility, circulation, and supports correct movement of the spine, discs, and all joints, as well as the vital functioning of all internal organs and physiological systems. The movements, postures, and stretches work with the natural dynamics of the body, and are always safe and enjoyable. Breema’s precise, “custom approach” allows each recipient to experience being completely nurtured and supported to regain and increase health at precisely the speed they can safely assimilate, without forceful manipulations or pain. Breema promotes harmony between body, mind, and feelings, which also supports harmony between ourselves and others, and in our relationship to all aspects of life. Our energy, usually lost to tension and drained by the disharmony between the mind, body, and emotions, becomes available to support the body’s many physiological systems.

Our programs are designed for lasting change. They start with weekly visits for in-depth support and progress tracking. Each session includes:

  • Breema bodywork to restore balance
  • Lifestyle counseling to address energy drains and stressors
  • Lab reviews and personalized adjustments to your treatment plan After the initial program, patients may continue to receive weekly Breema bodywork sessions, or transition to maintenance visits every 2-4 weeks for continued care.

Dr. Johnson uses comprehensive functional and Western medicine labs, including:

  • Gut health testing
  • Hormone and thyroid panels
  • Micronutrient analysis
  • Mold and toxin screenings These tests help uncover the root causes of symptoms and guide your personalized care plan.

Our integrative medicine approach focuses on:

  • Addressing root causes, not just symptoms
  • Combining functional medicine testing with personalized lifestyle support
  • Using Breema bodywork to reconnect your mind and body
  • Supporting you with tools and strategies for long-term health and vitality This isn’t about short-lived changes, it’s about creating real, lasting improvement!
