How It Works

How Functional Medicine Nashville operates @ The Art of Healing

1. Initial 1-hour appointment $350.00
   • We start by taking a detailed health history to understand your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual story.
   • Understanding your story helps us understand the “why” behind your symptoms.
2. Follow-up 45-minute appointment 4 weeks later $250.00
   • We will go over your story and what brought you to your present health
   • By integrating the best of traditional Western medicine with “alternative” and “integrative” therapies, such as nutritional supplements, diet, and exercise, we address the underlying issues of your health problems rather than just putting a band-aid on the symptoms.
   • As appropriate, we can employ other “non-traditional” therapies such as IV therapies and ozone therapy

   3. 30-minute follow-ups $175.00 every 3-4 months, health coaching sessions available in between, and additional diagnostic testing as needed.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    IV Therapy                                                                                                                                                                          Single NAD

Genomic Interpretation at Functional Medicine Nashville

Genomic interpretation refers to the process of analyzing and understanding the information contained within an individual’s genome. The genome is the complete set of genetic material (DNA) present in an organism’s cells, and it carries the instructions for the development, functioning, and traits of that organism.

Genomic interpretation involves several key steps:

1. Genome Sequencing: The first step in genomic interpretation is often genome sequencing, which determines the order of nucleotides (A, T, C, and G) in an individual’s DNA. This can be done using various techniques, such as whole-genome sequencing or targeted sequencing of specific regions of interest. When you do 23 and me or Ancestry this is what it is doing!
2. Variant Identification: Once the genome is sequenced, the next step is to identify and catalog genetic variations or variants within the genome. These variants may include single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), insertions, deletions, or structural rearrangements.
3. Variant Annotation: After identifying variants, they are annotated to determine their potential functional impact. This involves comparing the variants to databases and reference sequences to understand their association with known genes, genetic diseases, or other functional elements.
4. Functional Interpretation: Genomic variants are then interpreted to understand their potential effects on gene function, protein structure, and biological pathways. This can involve utilizing bioinformatics tools, databases, and scientific literature to assess the impact of variants on health, disease risk, drug response, or other relevant traits.
5. Clinical Relevance: In a clinical context, genomic interpretation may involve comparing an individual’s genetic variants with known associations to specific diseases or conditions. This can help healthcare providers make informed decisions regarding diagnosis, treatment options, or personalized medicine approaches.

Genomic interpretation can provide valuable insights into an individual’s genetic predispositions, potential disease risks, response to medications, and inform personalized healthcare strategies.
