Functional Medicine Practitioner
​General Practitioner​

Restoring and optimising your health

Dr Davies provides an integrated approach to healthcare combining Functional Medicine with a background in conventional medicine and general practice. By means of a thorough consideration of diet, environmental factors and lifestyle, the root causes of many chronic conditions can be addressed. Conventional therapies and medications are used if appropriate.​

What are the advantages of an integrated approach? 

Many chronic conditions can be poorly treated by a conventional approach. Symptoms can be suppressed, but the underlying ‘functional’ causes of the problem often remain undiagnosed and untreated. By finding the root cause of the condition, symptom improvement or resolution may be possible through the manipulation of diet and lifestyle alone. Conversely,  some conditions may require conventional treatment alongside a functional approach. Having a practitioner who understands both approaches is beneficial for many patients who remain on important beneficial medication. An understanding of acute and serious pathology also means serious conditions that might require urgent referral are not missed.​

Which conditions can be treated? ​
​

Dr Davies offers consultations for patients with complex chronic problems and for those who just want to learn how to optimise their health and well-being.
Functional Medicine approaches can work well with autoimmune diseases including thyroid disease, joint and skin problems, gastrointestinal disorders such as IBS, constipation and Crohn's disease. Chronic fatigue / ME, stress and mood disorders, weight management issues and diabetes are also amenable to treatment using Functional Medicine techniques.
​Dr Davies is happy to see children and has expertise in the management of infant colic and food allergies / intolerances in children. She also has experience in working with children and adults with Autistic Spectrum Disorder.
