Functional Medicine Services:
What is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine is a system-based approach to diagnosing and treating health issues. Instead of focusing merely on symptoms, functional medicine looks at health through a more integrative lens considering all aspects of health. Your first visit will start with a thorough history and examination. Based off those findings, labs will be recommended so we can better assess what's truly going on with your body.

He also has a Master of Science degree in Functional Medicine from the University of Western States in Portland, OR. Since Dr Johnson is a chiropractor by training he does not prescribe pharmaceuticals, but rather focuses on natural methods of improving health.
