The California Center for Functional Medicine (CCFM) is a functional and integrative medicine clinic in Berkeley, CA. CCFM was founded by Sunjya Schweig, MD, and Chris Kresser, with the mission of providing patients with an investigative approach to healthcare that is both high-tech and patient-centered. We treat patients with a wide range of chronic health problems, from digestive disorders to chronic infections, to autoimmune disease, to hypothyroidism. Patients who do best under our care: Don’t want to rely on unnecessary drugs and medical intervention for the rest of their lives —Are interested in discovering the underlying cause of their problems, rather than just suppressing symptoms —Are motivated to play an active role in their own healing process —Are willing to make the necessary dietary and lifestyle changes to support health and well-being One way to think of us is as “health detectives.” We focus on identifying and addressing the underlying cause of an illness, rather than just suppressing symptoms. Like all detectives, we use a variety of tools in our investigations, including , detailed questionnaires, a thorough medical history and examination, and comprehensive laboratory tests (blood, urine, stool and saliva testing). We then use nutritional therapy, herbal medicine, supplements, stress management, detoxification, lifestyle changes, and—in some cases and only when necessary—prescription medications to eliminate triggers and restore proper function and balance. Deep and lasting healing are only possible when the root causes of illness are addressed. By understanding the core systems of the body, how they are related, and how their function can be restored, many chronic illnesses can be prevented and even reversed.
