HOMEOSTASIS – Coming Back to Balance

Dr Leah Murray
Definition: any self-regulating process by which an organism tends to maintain stability while adjusting to conditions that are best for its survival.

The human body is always aiming for a state of balance, medically termed Homeostasis. Integrative and Functional medicine works by supporting the body’s innate healing potential, ie, doing what we can to help the body reach its happy state of balance.

We support and optimize a healthy state of balance so that the body can overcome disease and ill health. The body is in a constant state of detoxification and self-repair, autophagy, pH buffering.. what an Integrative and Functional medical approach does is aim to give the body what it might be lacking, or barriers it might have, to these silent but essential processes.

Listening to the body

LISTENING to the body and the signs its giving us help us know what is out of balance and how we can regain it.

Are you feeling OUT OF BALANCE? What do you feel is out of balance for you?
