Do you feel Fat, Fatigued, Depressed? Do you have a Hormone Imbalance (PMS, Hot Flashes, Infertility, Headaches) or Digestion Problems (IBS, GERD, Food Sensitivity, Constipation)?

What do these symptoms all have in common?

They can all be caused by chronic exposure to stress.  Over time, if you are exposed to high levels of stress your body will eventually break down in a predictable fashion, leading to an imbalance in Adrenal and Female Hormones.

The three main sources of stress that negatively affect your health are:

  1. Emotional Stress
  2. Dietary Stress
  3. Chronic Pain and Inflammation (Known and Unknown)

What’s the Solution?

 We custom-design individual health programs based on the results of lab tests that can easily be done in your home; most tests require stool, saliva, or urine samples. These health programs are based on lab tests that assess the function of three key body systems: Hormonal, Digestive and Detoxification.

Functional Medicine consultations are available at Costa Acupuncture with Michael Costa, L.Ac.   Consultations are conducted in person at our West LA clinic or over the phone for your convenience.

To get started on your individualized health program based on lab results, give us a call or e-mail us to set up a consultation.
