#389 Maternity Care Is The Most Important Care with Functional Medicine Practitioner, Sarah Thompson

单集简介 ...

Sarah Thompson joins us today to discuss the aspects of functional medicine and its connection to pregnancy and maternity care. Unlike conventional medicine, which largely follows a standardized educational framework, functional medicine focuses on understanding each person and creating a treatment plan to meet their specific needs. Another key feature of functional medicine is its proactive approach; it aims to address general complaints before they escalate into crises. Throughout this conversation, you will discover how functional medicine can be beneficial before, during, and after pregnancy as well.
