To Find The Root Of The Problem,
You Have To Dig Beyond The Symptom.

While traditional medicine focuses on the immediate symptom, we focus on the individual. Drawing upon a variety of medical disciplines – traditional, integrative, and holistic – we look at your complete medical picture. Only by understanding the origins of a medical issue can we take the first step toward achieving good health.

What is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine is a specialized practice that focuses on the person to find out what caused the symptom. Thorough examinations and testing allow us to determine the root of the problem. For many of us, a clean bill of health based on conventional testing doesn’t necessarily reflect how we actually feel. After all, health is an expression of vitality and well being, not merely the absence of disease.

Functional Medicine emphasizes "patient care" rather than "disease care" – offering a more effective way of achieving long-term wellness than the temporary damage control so common in today's traditional medicine. The Tampa Bay area has only four physicians certified in Functional Medicine and Millennium Medical has two of those physicians on its staff.

Minor Symptoms... or Early Warning Signs?
Even seemingly insignificant symptoms can foreshadow the onset of more serious diseases. Using the most advanced and sensitive technology available, Functional Medicine tests can reveal subtle imbalances within the body, allowing for timely intervention to prevent more profound health problems in the future.

Getting Started With A Functional Assessment
We use state of the art laboratory testing to determine whether your body systems are running optimally and are therefore able to achieve the health you desire. Your individual results can provide insight into many health conditions. Our tests are non or minimally invasive and focus on six key areas:

1. digestion
2. nutrition
3. detoxification
4. immunity/allergy
5. endocrinology (the production and regulation of hormones)
6. cardiovascular

Primary Care Traditional Medicine
Our patients typically schedule their first office visit because they want to establish a primary care physician. Many are surprised to discover such a vast array of traditional and complementary medical treatments under one roof. Depending on diagnosis, many of these clients benefit from our complementary treatments as well.

Weight Management Programs
Everyone’s weight loss goals are unique. At Millennium, we offer supervised and customized programs to help you achieve yours successfully. An effective weight loss program should be a complete, real-life solution to losing weight. In addition to our Functional Medicine approach we have specialized nutritionists who will develop a plan just for you. We use a series of tests, questionnaires and interviews to get you on the right track and help you stay on that track.

Detoxification
Almost everyone needs to detox, or cleanse themselves. Those with a regular, balanced diet may find less need for intensive detoxification. However, for those who consume diets higher in fats, meats, dairy products, refined foods and chemicals, detoxification becomes more necessary. Everyone’s body is continually cleansing itself. At Millennium, we help you determine what minor changes in your diet and lifestyle would help you cleanse your body more effectively. more...

Combating Stress and Fatigue
Factors like poor eating habits and overwork can wear you down. However, sudden or persistent fatigue– despite adequate rest –may be a sign of an underlying medical problem. Whatever the cause, we can work with you to discover what's draining your energy, implementing steps to put vitality back in your life.

Chinese Medicine
Traditional Chinese Medicine is a comprehensive holistic system of healthcare that has been practiced for over 3,000 years.

Using Chinese therapies such as acupuncture, the circulation and balance of vital energy (Qi) and blood (Xue) is channeled to both maintain and help facilitate the natural healing mechanism to prevent and alleviate pain, stress, fatigue, headaches, PMS, cravings and diseases such as asthma, Fibromyalgia, liver dysfunction, gynecological irregularities, allergies and much more. more...

There’s a difference between growing older and growing old. We’re the difference. We believe in safe, effective therapies that address the underlying mechanisms of aging. Our goal is not to prolong life unrealistically, rather, we promote successful aging to help you enjoy a long, healthy productive life.

Millennium utilizes proven natural therapies that help prevent and minimize age-related diseases. These therapies include targeted nutritional supplements, natural hormone replacements, and specific dietary and exercise recommendations. more...

Infusion Therapy
Infusion therapy is the intravenous (IV) administration of medications and nutrients, including fluid replacements, vitamins and supplements. Advances in technology enable these therapies to be administered at an outpatient site such as Millennium Medical, which is a regional leader of infusion therapy services.

Many patients need nutritional or other fluids for medical conditions that cannot be treated by mouth. The infusion of supplements or nutrients directly into the body (through veins, muscles or under the skin) offers a more direct and efficient treatment. more...

Chiropractic
The chiropractic philosophy distinguishes itself from modern medicine by emphasizing patient recuperative abilities rather than surgery. This begins by focusing on the nervous system and its intimate relationship with the body – then taking a patient-centered, hands-on approach focused on influencing function through the body’s structure. more...

Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy is used for both pain relief and body sculpting. Considered both safe and effective, it has been popular in Europe for decades. Mesotherapy is minimally invasive and very successful. more...
