Gut & Digestive Health
Conditions we treat: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Crohn’s Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, GERD/Acid Reflux, SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth), Leaky Gut, Chronic Constipation, Bloating, Interstitial Cystitis, Digestive Disorders
Bloating, reflux, constipation, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and inflammatory bowel conditions rarely occur in isolation. These symptoms often result from disruptions in the gut microbiome, environmental exposures, personal stressors, immune dysregulation, and damage to the gut lining. Our functional medicine team uses advanced testing and thorough health histories to uncover the unique factors contributing to your digestive dysfunction and to build a plan that addresses them at the source.
Hormone Health
Conditions we treat: PMS, Perimenopause, Menopause, PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome), Infertility, Postpartum Hormone Imbalance, Thyroid Disorders, Hypothyroidism, Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, Adrenal Dysfunction, Low Testosterone, Hormone Imbalance
Dysregulated hormone symptoms including fatigue, weight gain, irregular cycles, fertility challenges, mood changes, hot flashes, low libido, and poor sleep are often dismissed as a normal part of aging, stress, or simply being a woman. In reality, these can be signals of deeper imbalances in hormone signaling that can be identified and improved. Whether you’re struggling with PMS, perimenopause, menopause, PCOS, infertility, thyroid or adrenal dysfunction, low testosterone, or navigating pregnancy and postpartum, we have the tools to help restore function and optimize quality of life.
Metabolic Health
Conditions we treat: Type 2 Diabetes, Pre-Diabetes, Insulin Resistance, Metabolic Syndrome, Obesity, Elevated Cholesterol, High Blood Pressure, Healthy Weight and Metabolism, Weight Loss, GLP-1 Nutritional Support
Many people are told their blood sugar, blood pressure, cholesterol, or weight is “fine”, until suddenly it isn’t. The truth is that metabolic dysfunction doesn’t happen overnight. It develops gradually, often years before a diagnosis of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, or obesity is made. Fortunately, there are many early warning signs that can be identified through advanced functional medicine testing, allowing us to intervene before more serious health issues develop. With the right nutrition, lifestyle, and targeted support including nutritional support for patients using GLP-1 medications like Ozempic or Wegovy, these underlying imbalances are often reversible, helping to prevent future disease and reduce the long-term physical, emotional, and financial costs of chronic illness.
Autoimmune & Inflammatory Conditions
Conditions we treat: Rheumatoid Arthritis, Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Psoriasis, Eczema, Celiac Disease, Lupus, Fibromyalgia, Autoimmune Disease, Chronic Inflammation
If you’ve been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, celiac disease, or another autoimmune condition, you know that symptoms often extend far beyond the affected organ or tissue. Exhaustion, weakness, exercise intolerance, brain fog, joint pain, digestive issues, skin problems, and chronic inflammation can significantly impact daily life. Instead of simply prescribing medication to manage symptoms, we identify the factors that contribute to immune dysregulation at the source — gut health, nutrition, infections, stress, and environmental triggers — and develop personalized plans to help reduce symptoms, improve quality of life, and support long-term immune resilience.
Neurological Health
Conditions we treat: Parkinson’s Disease, Alzheimer’s Disease, Dementia, Chronic Migraines, Headaches, Restless Leg Syndrome, PANDAS, PANS, Multiple Sclerosis, Neurological Conditions
Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, chronic migraines, restless leg syndrome, and PANDAS/PANS are neurological conditions that can affect every aspect of daily life. Symptoms like memory loss, tremors, migraines, numbness, balance issues, and cognitive decline often develop gradually as changes occur in brain metabolism, circulation, inflammation, and cellular energy production over time. Our functional medicine approach to neurological health focuses on strategic testing and specific interventions to build neurological resilience and address the underlying factors contributing to these conditions rather than waiting for symptoms to progress.
Brain & Mental Health
Conditions we treat: Depression, Anxiety, ADD, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, OCD, Brain Fog, Cognitive Decline, Mood Disorders, Stress, Mental Health
Mental health is often treated as a neurotransmitter problem, yet many patients continue to struggle despite medication. Blood sugar swings can mimic anxiety. Nutrient deficiencies can affect focus and mood. Hormonal shifts can alter emotional regulation. Childhood and adult trauma, along with genetic variations that influence how neurotransmitters are produced, metabolized, and utilized, are all important factors to consider. Our functional medicine approach to brain and mental health helps patients identify the unique physiological and emotional factors contributing to their symptoms while building a stronger foundation for long-term cognitive and emotional well-being.
Heart Health
Conditions we treat: Cardiovascular Disease, Elevated Cholesterol, High Blood Pressure, Hypertension, Inflammation, Insulin Resistance, Heart Disease Prevention
Despite 1 in 4 Americans being on statin medication, heart disease remains the leading cause of death, which tells us that conventional approaches continue to miss the mark. Traditional risk factors like cholesterol levels tell only a small part of the story. Inflammation, insulin resistance, the quality of cholesterol particles in your body, nutrient deficiencies, stress, sleep quality, body composition, and lifestyle habits all contribute to cardiovascular outcomes — some far more than cholesterol levels alone. At the UltraWellness Center in Lenox, Massachusetts, we have the tools to identify the factors driving your cardiovascular risk and create a plan for lasting heart health.
Aging & Longevity
Conditions we treat: Healthy Aging, Osteoporosis, Bone Health, Chronic Fatigue, Fatigue, Sleep Disorders, Insomnia, Muscle Loss, Longevity, Healthspan
Many people assume declining energy, muscle loss, poor sleep, and reduced resilience are unavoidable parts of getting older. While aging is inevitable, loss of function doesn’t have to be. Our functional medicine approach to healthy aging and longevity focuses on preserving the factors most closely linked to healthspan including strength, mobility, cognitive function, bone health, metabolic health, and recovery so that you can remain independent and continue doing the things you love for as long as possible.
Immune & Environmental Health
Conditions we treat: Environmental Allergies, Food Allergies, Food Sensitivities, Lyme Disease, Tick-Borne Illness, Mercury Toxicity, Heavy Metal Toxicity, Mold Illness, Chemical Sensitivities, Detoxification, Asthma, Chronic Sinusitis
Some people feel like their bodies are constantly reacting to foods, seasonal allergens, mold, chemicals, infections, or environmental exposures that others seem to tolerate without issue. In many cases, this reflects a combination of factors: the modern burden of environmental triggers, prior or ongoing infections, gut microbiome imbalances, genetic predisposition, and reduced resilience in detoxification and immune pathways. Our functional medicine team knows what to ask, what to test, and how to build a plan that reduces overall body burden and addresses imbalances unique to each individual.
Skin Health
Conditions we treat: Acne, Rosacea, Eczema, Psoriasis, Chronic Rashes
Your skin is one of the body’s most visible indicators of internal health. Persistent acne, rosacea, eczema, and chronic rashes are more than a topical problem — they are often connected to immune activity, hormonal shifts, digestive health, and nutritional deficiencies. Rather than focusing solely on symptom management, our functional medicine approach to skin health dives deep into the factors that drive recurring skin issues, so we can support healthier skin from within.
Energy & Fatigue
Conditions we treat: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Burnout, Adrenal Fatigue, Mitochondrial Dysfunction, Persistent Fatigue, Poor Recovery, Low Energy, Fibromyalgia
Feeling exhausted all the time isn’t a normal part of aging, a busy lifestyle, or simply having more responsibilities. Persistent fatigue, burnout, poor recovery, and low motivation can be signs that something deeper is affecting how your body produces and uses energy. Chronic infections, nutrient deficiencies, blood sugar imbalances, poor sleep, inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction can all contribute. When you know where to look and how to give the body what it needs to you allow the body to restore and heal itself.
Cancer
Conditions we treat: Cancer Prevention, Integrative Cancer Support, Cellular Health, Environmental Factors in Cancer
Cancer is not just a genetic disease — it is influenced by how cells communicate, repair, and respond to their environment over time. In addition to their conventional care, many people want to understand what else is driving the terrain in their body that may allow cancer to grow and thrive. Our functional medicine approach to cancer focuses on identifying and addressing the modifiable factors that impact cellular health and resilience, and on supporting the body in a way that works alongside — not instead of — conventional cancer care.
