Integrative/Functional NP practice

Hi all, I'm looking for suggestions or input from anyone who has successfully formed an integrative or functional approach into your FNP practice.

I've been Paleo/keto for a couple years, practice functional movement and am ON FIRE for all things that have to do with food, diet, movement, blue light, cleansing, etc. I have taken online courses through the Kresser Institute, Mark Sisson, Changing Habits/Functional Academy, and a few others.

As a western-medicine trained FNP, I really want to find time and space within my practice to teach my patients a whole approach to wellness, not just give them scripts and keep seeing them back for more.

Any ideas how I can roll this in?

    Hi-

    My specialty practice is incorporating functional medicine into what we do. I have taken courses with the Institute of Function Medicine (IFM) and am currently doing an educational program with Dr. Kara Fitzgerald. We're not giving up on western medicine; rather, we're incorporating functional medicine into what we already do. We work a lot with gut dysbiosis and food sensitivities as they pertain to allergic conditions. It takes a lot more time to do all this, so hopefully your practice will be supportive.

    I highly recommend the IFM courses. They have a great website.
