Is your doctor just treating symptoms instead of asking why you’re sick in the first place? Functional medicine turns that model upside down, and in this episode of Beyond Beauty, Dr. Rachel reveals how addressing root causes, not just masking symptoms, can help you finally feel better.

Dr. Rachel shares her journey from a prescription-focused family doctor to a functional medicine expert, explaining why this science-backed, data-driven approach is changing lives. She even opens up about how she personally overcame debilitating migraines by treating the root causes, including gut health, nutrient deficiencies, and toxic burden.

🎙️ In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• What functional medicine is (and why it’s NOT just “alternative medicine”)
• The biggest gaps in conventional healthcare, and how functional medicine fills them
• Advanced diagnostics like microbiome and genetic testing for personalized care
• Practical first steps if your health concerns have been dismissed
• Why getting the basics right: sleep, nutrition, and stress, is essential for healing

If you’ve ever felt unheard by your doctor, struggled with chronic symptoms, or simply want to optimize your health, this episode is for you.
