The term "functional medicine" was coined in 1993 to describe the medicine of the future. Today, many complementary and alternative medicine, or CAM, practitioners use a functional medicine approach. By promoting changes in lifestyle, environment, and nutrition, these practitioners rely on their knowledge of key physiological, genetic, and biochemical processes for establishing an innovative form of total patient wellness.
