Functional Medicine at Diamond Touch Function: Led by Stacy Grissett, Dual Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner 

The term "Functional Medicine" may be unfamiliar to many, even though concepts from this approach have gained recognition through figures like Dr. Oz. But what exactly is functional medicine, and how can it benefit you? At Diamond Touch Function, Stacy Grissett, a licensed nurse practitioner, takes a patient-centered approach to health and wellness, combining expertise with a commitment to uncovering the root causes of illness.

Functional Medicine: A Holistic Approach to Better Health

Functional medicine focuses on addressing the root causes of disease, not just the symptoms. This systems biology-based approach dives deep into your health history, starting from birth, to understand the key events and factors contributing to your current health. By identifying these root causes, triggers, and precipitating events, functional medicine helps to create personalized strategies for achieving and sustaining optimal wellness.

The Diamond Touch Approach

Before your consultation, you’ll gain access to a personalized online portal where you’ll document your life journey, including your medical, family, and social history. This comprehensive information helps organize and prioritize health concerns, enabling Stacy to connect seemingly unrelated issues into a cohesive narrative.

During your consultation, Stacy will take the time to thoroughly explore your history, symptoms, and prior treatments through detailed discussions, a physical examination, and specialized lab tests. This process is designed to identify the underlying causes of chronic symptoms, ensuring treatment is tailored to your unique needs.

Key Principles of Functional Medicine at Diamond Touch Function

  1. Treating the Person, Not Just the Disease
    Everyone is biochemically and genetically unique. Stacy’s approach emphasizes treating the individual, addressing root causes rather than masking symptoms with medications alone.

  2. Harnessing the Body's Natural Intelligence
    Functional medicine works to restore balance and strengthen the body’s ability to heal itself. This includes addressing factors like gut health, which plays a critical role in immune function and overall wellness.

  3. Food as Medicine
    Nutrition plays a vital role in health. By understanding your specific nutritional needs, Stacy can guide you toward a diet that promotes healing and vitality.

  4. Science-Based and Personalized Care
    Functional medicine employs advanced diagnostic tools, including genomic profiles, micronutrient panels, and hormonal assessments. While some testing may not be covered by insurance, Stacy ensures recommendations are both necessary and cost-effective.

Commitment to Your Wellness

At Diamond Touch Function, achieving vitality is a collaborative effort. Stacy partners with you to create customized care plans that include nutrition, lifestyle modifications, and ongoing support. Success requires dedication, but with guidance from Stacy and her team, you’ll be empowered to take charge of your health.
