Functional Medicine in Isanti
If you’ve been dealing with stubborn digestive issues, low energy, or frustrating hormonal changes, Ohana Chiropractic and Wellness offers a clear and caring path tailored to you. We look beyond symptoms to find the why, so your plan fits your life.
Our two doctors each bring their own approach to functional medicine. Dr. Brandy uses Applied Kinesiology to guide nutrition and lifestyle support, while Dr. Emily uses in-depth lab analysis to uncover what’s happening beneath the surface. Whichever path you choose, your preferences guide every step.
Signs It’s Time for a Check-In
Functional medicine may help if you’re experiencing:
- Gut health concerns: bloating, acid reflux, or irregularity
- Fatigue: low energy or poor sleep
- Hormonal changes: cycle-related shifts and mood changes
- Brain fog: trouble with focus and clarity
- Inflammation: aches and puffiness
- Stress: mood and resilience, including gut-brain connections
Dr. Brandy’s Approach: AK-Guided Nutrition
Dr. Brandy starts with a thoughtful conversation and targeted assessments using Applied Kinesiology (AK). Gentle muscle testing checks how your body responds, helping pinpoint what needs support. When necessary, she assesses neurolymphatic reflexes, points associated with specific organ systems, to identify areas that may benefit from nutrition and lifestyle changes. Care may include high-quality NutriDyn™ supplements, which are third-party tested and held to strict quality standards.
You can choose nutrition-only care, chiropractic-only care, or a combination of both. Brief nutrition tips may be included in a standard chiropractic visit, and a longer functional medicine appointment is available for a deeper evaluation. If you have recent lab work, Dr. Brandy is happy to review it.
Dr. Brandy studied functional nutrition at Northwestern Health Sciences University and attends AK seminars each year to keep expanding her knowledge.
Dr. Emily’s Approach: In-Depth Lab Analysis
Dr. Emily combines detailed lab testing with a personalized plan to help with fatigue, gut health, hormonal changes, and more. Her functional medicine care includes:
- In-depth lab analysis: a thorough, line-by-line review of your results, not just “normal vs. abnormal”
- Personalized care plan: nutrition, lifestyle, and supplement guidance built around you
- Regular check-ins: follow-up visits to track your progress and adjust your plan
- Whole-body integration: coordinated with your chiropractic and acupuncture care
Which Approach Is Right for Me?
If you’d like gentle, hands-on assessment and nutrition support that can fit into your chiropractic visits, Dr. Brandy’s AK-guided approach may be a great fit. If you want a detailed look at your labs and a structured plan with regular check-ins, Dr. Emily’s lab-based approach may be right for you. Not sure? Give us a call, and we’ll help you decide.
