At Thrive Chiropractic & Functional Health, we take a deeper look at why you don’t feel your best.
Instead of masking symptoms with medication, our Functional Health approach helps uncover the root causes of fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, and hormone imbalance — so you can finally feel like yourself again.

​

⚕️ What Is Functional Health?

​

Functional Health (also called Functional Medicine) focuses on how your body’s systems work together — hormones, metabolism, digestion, inflammation, and detoxification.

When one area is off balance, it can affect everything from your energy and mood to your sleep and immune system.

​

We use advanced lab testing, in-depth consultations, and lifestyle coaching to identify what’s really happening inside your body — and build a personalized plan to fix it.

​

🧠 What Functional Health Can Help With

​

We help patients dealing with:

​

• Persistent fatigue or low energy

• Weight gain or difficulty losing weight

• Hormone imbalance (PMS, menopause, low testosterone)

• Thyroid problems

• Digestive issues like bloating, IBS, or food sensitivities

• Blood sugar imbalance or prediabetes

• Brain fog, anxiety, or mood changes

• Sleep disturbances and poor recovery

​

If you’ve been told “your labs are normal” but still don’t feel right, this is the approach that finally connects the dots.

​

🧬 Advanced Testing — Not Guessing

 

We go far beyond traditional labs.

Our comprehensive testing may include:

• Comprehensive blood work for inflammation, nutrients, thyroid, and metabolic markers

• Hormone and adrenal testing (saliva, urine, or blood)

• Gut microbiome analysis

• Food sensitivity and immune panels

• Toxicity and nutrient balance panels

 

These insights help us identify deficiencies, toxicities, and imbalances that may be holding you back.

💬 Real Patient Experiences

​

“I love working with Dr. Tara. She really knows her stuff! I went into the office originally feeling like a "3" on a scale from 1-100 and Tara was able to pinpoint areas causing this and helped me with a doable plan, step by step, to feel so much better. In about 3 months or so I went from a 3 to about a 75.”
— Becky S.
