Functional Endocrinology is the Complementary and Alternative Medicine approach to hormonal imbalance.  Where "Traditional" Endocrinology focuses on hormone replacement, surgery, and medications, Functional Endocrinology uses the body's normal response to dietary modifications, nutritional supplementation, and exercise in order to balance hormone activity.

Using a Functional Endocrinology approach to health, Dr. Chase Hayden reviews your history, blood and saliva tests, signs and symptoms in order to create a specific nutritional program for you.  Functional Endocrinology focuses on identifying hormonal imbalance in the body when symptoms begin to develop rather than waiting for the organs or glands to be in a diseased state.

  • PMS
