Becca Chilczenkowski is a Board-Certified Practitioner, female hormone and metabolic specialist, and the Founder and Co-Owner of FitMom, a leading virtual functional health practice helping women resolve complex chronic health issues and optimize their performance, energy, and longevity.
Becca's path into functional medicine didn't begin in a classroom; began when her own health stopped making sense. Despite being a competitive CrossFit athlete ranked in the Top 100 in the world, her body suddenly felt like it was working against her. She was gaining weight despite strict nutrition and training, battling fatigue, mood swings, digestive issues, and constipation yet traditional medical answers fell short.
That experience led her to functional medicine, where she discovered the powerful connections between the immune system, metabolism, hormones, gut health, and detoxification pathways. What began as a personal healing journey quickly evolved into a career devoted to helping other women uncover the true root causes of their symptoms.
Over the past several years, Becca has helped oversee thousands of complex client cases through FitMom. Outside of her clinical work, Becca is a wife, mother of two, former competitive athlete, coffee enthusiast, and passionate advocate for helping women become informed, empowered stewards of their health.
