If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing “all the right things” but still feel tired, inflamed, or out of balance, you’re not alone. Many people go years managing symptoms instead of finding the real reason behind them. That’s where functional medicine can help.
At Re-LAX Chiropractic + Wellness in Los Angeles, Dr. Christina Yang combines the best of functional medicine and chiropractic care to help patients uncover the root cause of their symptoms and support the body’s natural ability to heal, safely, effectively, and naturally.
What Is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine takes a deeper look at how different systems in your body work together including your hormones, gut, metabolism, and stress response.
Instead of only treating surface symptoms, it focuses on identifying what’s causing them in the first place.
Rather than asking, “What can I take to stop this pain or fatigue?” functional medicine asks:
“Why is this happening, and how can we help your body function better?”
It’s a patient-centered, science-based approach that aims to restore balance and improve long-term wellness through lifestyle, nutrition, and targeted care.
Dr. Christina Yang’s Approach to Functional Medicine
As the founder of Re-LAX Chiropractic + Wellness, Dr. Christina Yang believes that true health starts with understanding the body as a connected system. She combines her background in chiropractic care with advanced training in functional medicine to create personalized, holistic plans for each patient.
Her approach includes:
Detailed health assessments and testing (when appropriate) to uncover inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, or hormonal imbalances.
Nutrition and lifestyle guidance to support energy, digestion, and metabolism.
Evidence-based supplementation when necessary to help the body restore function.
Chiropractic adjustments and natural therapies to align the body physically and improve overall nerve and organ communication.
Every plan is personalized, because no two bodies or root causes are exactly the same.
How Chiropractic and Functional Medicine Work Together
Dr. Christina Yang’s integrative model combines the physical alignment benefits of chiropractic care with the internal balance of functional medicine.
While adjustments improve posture, mobility, and nerve communication, functional medicine supports the internal systems that keep you healthy — including digestion, hormones, and detoxification.
Together, these methods can:
Reduce chronic inflammation
Improve energy and focus
Support hormonal and metabolic balance
Encourage better sleep and recovery
Promote long-term wellness naturally
This combined approach helps patients not only feel better but understand why they feel better, empowering them to maintain results.
