Prior to the first appointment you’ll complete an in-depth health history. Then you’ll meet with Dr. Flowers to discuss your health conditions and goals. You’ll undergo a thorough exam, with the first visit lasting approximately an hour.
Dr. Flowers will request advanced diagnostic tests such as extensive bloodwork, urine/stool samples, saliva samples, or x-ray or higher-level imaging. If you recently had any of the above complete, please bring those to your first appointment.
Dr. Flowers will create a personalized treatment plan that may include lifestyle changes, diet and nutrition modifications, supplementation, activity and exercise, and medication, if needed.

Dr Flowers’ own journey started when she was in high school in a car wreck and broke the windshield of the truck with her head. She started experiencing debilitating headaches, frequently keeping her out of school. After a cocktail of drugs and no relief, she started investigating other treatments. Through many years of trial and error, along with her schooling and own research, she uses her 7 Pillar Brain Reset system to work with women suffering from migraines to deal with the root causes which range from hormone imbalance, thyroid disorders, gut problems, insomnia, and structural imbalances to name a few. In her free time, Dr Flowers rides her rope horse ‘Joe’, quilts, and reads medical journals. She is also an international best-selling Kindle author. Most importantly she is mom to three beautiful young adults.
Functional medicine is a personalized, patient-centered approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of illness or imbalance in the body. It considers the complex interactions between genetics, environment, and lifestyle factors to optimize health and prevent disease.
Unlike conventional medicine, which often treats symptoms with medications or surgeries, functional medicine seeks to understand and address the underlying factors contributing to health issues. It emphasizes a holistic approach, aiming to promote wellness rather than just managing disease.
Functional medicine can address a wide range of acute and chronic health conditions, including digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, autoimmune diseases, metabolic issues, chronic fatigue, and more. It's particularly effective for conditions with complex underlying causes.
During a functional medicine consultation, you can expect a comprehensive assessment of your health history, symptoms, lifestyle factors, and environmental influences. Your practitioner will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan focused on addressing the root causes of your health concerns.
Functional medicine incorporates a variety of treatment modalities, including nutritional therapy, lifestyle modifications, stress management techniques, targeted supplementation, detoxification protocols, and mind-body therapies. The approach is highly individualized based on each patient's unique needs.
The timeline for seeing results with functional medicine varies depending on the complexity of your health issues, your adherence to the treatment plan, and other factors. While some patients experience improvements in symptoms relatively quickly, achieving long-term wellness often requires ongoing commitment and patience.
