At Nutritional Healing, owner Kimberly Stoeger and her team practice functional medicine. This is a different way of looking at health and disease. Instead of just naming the disease and then giving the same treatment to everyone with that disease, they look at the individual systems in a person’s body to discover underlying root causes. Functional medicine individualizes health plans, nutrition guidelines, menu planning, and focuses on the patient instead of the disease.
