The Importance of Self-Care
Most health issues do not require a visit to a doctor, as approximately 80% of conditions can be managed through self-care. Understanding one’s own body through data and health information empowers individuals to take control of their well-being. Functional medicine acts as an operating manual for personal health, enabling people to grasp the underlying causes of their health issues rather than merely relying on diagnoses. By equipping themselves with knowledge, individuals can practice self-care effectively, reducing their dependence on traditional medical interventions.
