East Coast Functional Medicine, led by Dr. Mike Alden, a Certified Functional Medicine Clinician, is dedicated to uncovering the root causes of health issues rather than merely addressing the symptoms. The clinic adopts a comprehensive approach to wellness, emphasizing the importance of understanding "why" conditions exist. With a focus on personalized care, East Coast Functional Medicine employs advanced diagnostic lab testing, including specialty tests such as immune panels, stool testing, and hormone evaluations, to gain a thorough understanding of each patient’s unique health landscape. This meticulous analysis enables the clinic to design tailored treatment plans that incorporate lifestyle modifications, dietary adjustments, and nutrient supplementation, aimed at promoting optimal health and longevity.
Dr. Alden brings over three decades of experience in chiropractic care and functional medicine, with a particular emphasis on autoimmune disorders like Hashimoto's Disease and Fibromyalgia. His expertise extends to the management of mild traumatic brain injuries through Atlas Concussion Testing and Treatment, which he co-founded. This innovative program addresses post-concussion syndrome and its potential long-term impacts, such as dementia and other neurodegenerative diseases. East Coast Functional Medicine stands out for its commitment to providing patients with not only answers but also actionable strategies for recovery, empowering individuals to take charge of their health and well-being on their unique journeys toward lasting wellness.
