info_outlineHave you ever gone to the doctor for joint pain or a headache, only to be sent home with a prescription that doesn't help you feel better? Or maybe a physician told you that your symptoms are in your head and to just wait for them to resolve on their own? Most of us have grown up to believe that when health issues occur, there's a pill for that. But extensive research has moved towards more holistic practices that are good for the mind, body, and soul. This is where '"functional medicine" comes in.
On this episode of Checkable Health's podcast, Patty Post joins Dr. Efrat LaMandre, a clinical and functional medicine physician who started a practice called, The Knew Method.
