Functional Health
Root-cause care for women who know something is off.
If you are dealing with ongoing fatigue, brain fog, weight changes, hormone symptoms, digestive issues, or mood shifts and you keep hearing, “Everything looks normal,” functional health can help you get clarity.
At W.I.S.H., our functional health approach looks at how your body systems work together, so we can identify what is driving symptoms and build a plan that supports lasting change.
What is functional health?
Functional health focuses on why symptoms are happening, not only how to reduce them. It recognizes that the body is interconnected, and that concerns like low energy, weight gain, poor sleep, and digestive issues often involve multiple overlapping factors.
We consider areas such as:
Hormones and metabolic health
Gut health and digestion
Nutrition and nutrient status
Stress response and nervous system regulation
Sleep quality and recovery
Lifestyle habits and environmental factors
The goal is to restore balance, improve day-to-day function, and support your long-term health.
Functional health can be a good fit if you:
Feel chronically tired, foggy, or “not like yourself”
Are gaining weight or cannot lose weight despite effort
Have digestive symptoms like bloating, constipation, or discomfort
Have hormone symptoms that affect sleep, mood, or libido
Feel stressed, wired, or burnt out and cannot recover
Want a whole-body plan, not a quick fix
A big part of functional health is understanding what your body is signaling and what to do next. We explain recommendations in plain language so you feel confident in your choices and can build habits that support long-term wellness.
