Our Approach

Here at Vita we take an investigative approach to your health.  We have a variety of tools which help us get to the root cause of your concern.  This includes detailed health questionnaires, a thorough health history and physical evaluation, and use of the most current laboratory diagnostic techniques (blood, urine, stool, and saliva).  Through this process we are able to discover your unique biochemical makeup and identify the underlying cause of your concern.

After the source of your problem has been identified we use a variety of dietary and lifestyle therapies which includes nutritional supplements, herbal remedies, detoxification programs, and lifestyle education to restore proper function.

It’s important to stress that identifying the root cause of your health concern is key to finding the solution.  By applying simple dietary and lifestyle therapies health can be resorted and many chronic health conditions can be prevented.

Our Philosophy

The doctors at Vita practice an emerging style of health care called functional medicine, which combines the best components of alternative and conventional health care. Functional Medicine addresses the underlying causes of disease, using a systems-oriented approach and engaging both patient and practitioner in a therapeutic partnership. It is an evolution in the practice of healthcare that better addresses the patients needs of the 21st century. By shifting the traditional disease-centered focus of medical practice to a more patient-centered approach, Functional Medicine addresses the whole person, not just an isolated set of symptoms. Functional Medicine practitioners spend time with their patients, listening to their histories and looking at the interactions among genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term health and complex, chronic conditions. In this way, Functional Medicine supports the unique expression of health and vitality for each individual.
