Treat the Symptom, But Don’t Stop There

Too often, the medical world falls into a trap: treat the symptom and call it good. In fact, even some functional medicine clinics focus heavily on symptom relief. Why? Because it feels good to help people feel better fast. And patients feel reassured when something’s working quickly.

But here’s the truth: if we stop at treating symptoms, we miss the opportunity to heal.

At The Legacy Clinic, we do things differently. Yes, we’ll help you with the acid reflux, the heartburn, or whatever is causing you immediate discomfort. But we also dig deeper. What’s causing the reflux? Is it a magnesium deficiency? A food sensitivity? A lifestyle pattern that needs adjusting?

We always aim to relieve your discomfort and uncover the root cause. Because true functional health means more than just feeling okay today—it means building a life where your body thrives for years to come.

So next time a doctor hands you a prescription, ask: What’s the root cause? If they can’t answer that, it might be time to explore a better path.

At The Legacy Clinic, we’ll help you get to the bottom of it.
