Jeff Hunter, Upstream Functional Medicine (guest of Tricia Muehlbaue r)

Stress, Hormones and Health

Stressed about hormones and/or your health overall?

Jeff Hunter, the owner and practitioner at Upstream Functional Medicine
will explain how the use of functional medicine can help. Jeff holds dual
certification as both a nurse practitioner with western medicine training and a
certified practitioner of functional medicine through the Institute for
Functional Medicine. Combining over twenty years of traditional medical
experience with functional and nutritional medicine, Jeff offers an advanced
approach to healthcare.

This is what discovering Functional Medicine feels like to Jeff:“Functional and Integrative Medicine is
such a gift. I take the responsibility of making the best use of it very
seriously, so it is a top priority to set the bar of excellence very high. My
hope is that if everyone knows Functional Medicine is the way to get your
health on track, it will create a shift in not only our health system but the
culture of health for my children’s generation. So I accept every person as
they are and am an active listener with true compassion for their hopes and
dreams.”

Now, Jeff is setting the bar high for the practice of functional medicine
in Colorado through an education and coaching approach to delivering the best
of comprehensive, evidence-based Functional Medicine science .
