San Jose CA, 06-NOVEMBER-2014 - IHS Functional Medicine Center is pleased to announce that the center has developed solutions for the condition known as hypothyroidism. The San Jose thyroid doctor has a practice that is devoted to wellness in a whole person approach. The concept means that wellness is obtained by searching for underlying causes of the disturbance or disruption. The next step is to make changes and adjustments that will bring the body into normal function.

Hypothyroidism is a type of hormone deficiency based on the output from the thyroid gland. It often requires many years to fully develop. Victims of the condition may not notice symptoms until they are well advanced. They may think the symptoms are due to simple aging. The metabolism continues to slow and further signs and symptoms will develop.

The typical symptoms include fatigue, increased sensitivity to cold, constipation, dry skin, unexplained weight gain, puffy face, hoarseness, muscle weakness, elevated blood cholesterol level, muscle aches, tenderness and stiffness and pain, stiffness or swelling in the joints. Some victims of the condition experience heavier than normal or irregular menstrual periods, thinning hair, slowed heart rate, depression or impaired memory.

The testing done by the doctors will enable them to identify a course of therapy which includes improved nutrition and other therapeutic measures designed to bring the hormone production back into full functionality.

Functional medicine is a partnership between the patient and the doctor, working together to restore full health. Each person has a unique set of biological and environmental factors that make up the whole. This is why the doctor works with the whole person rather than simply a set of symptoms.
