If you are interested in scheduling a consultation with Dr. Rutherford please visit http://PowerHealthConsult.com Hello again for those of you who have not watched this, I'm dr. Martin Rutherford. I am a certified functional medicine practitioner, author of the book power, health back to basics and a clinic director here and clinician at power, health, rehab and wellness in Reno Nevada, and this is the third in a series that we are presenting that we have just decided. We are going to call functional medicine back to basics and if you haven't seen the previous two, you can look on power. He'll talk comm and bring them up. The first one was called whack-a-mole medicine versus classic functional medicine. The second one will be probably called the intro to back to basics on functional medicine and it's back to basics. Because, again, I explained in those that there is a there's, a certain therapeutic order to the way you go about the type of patient who's coming into offices today. Frankly, that patient is is mostly autoimmune. Patients and those are patients that may or may not be aware that they're in some sort of a chronic stress cycle and those two aspects of chronic conditions which is normally what comes in through our office. They're, the they're kind of the core factors around which you need to build a functional medicine, therapeutic order. If you go to a functional medicine practitioner and they are unaware what that therapeutic order is which some are or many, maybe the your treatment is going to fail. If you are looking online - and you know so much of the things that I talked about or online, why didn't, they work for you, this series over the period of maybe the next year or so is going to answer those questions. And again, this is the series for those of you that you have five or six hundred hours line, telling us what our conditions are, but you, don't tell us how to get better. This series is to answer that question as to why we can ' T tell you that, but it's, going to give you pieces of data that some of you are going to use along the way, and you're. Going to get better because your cases aren't as complex, some of your cases are going to get a little bit better and and and hit a wall, and some of you are gonna. Do the things I talk about. You're gonna go you don't know what you're talking about, because because it's, not helping me at all and and and and that last two groups are gonna, be because maybe You're, not able to accomplish the therapeutic order that we talk about on your own. So this is me just laying it out on. The line is what we do in the office, and and this week we're, going to go into the what I call the first part of the therapeutic order. Now my notes in front of me, these are notes that I have taken. These are notes that I've made to work with people. These are notes I've, taken from frankly the most alumina alumina Riis in the profession, many of whom I am just honored and humbled to know personally, and so this is, if you want the inside and the inside stuff. This is this is where it's. Coming from so we're, going to talk about what ' S called the therapeutic order today and we're, going to talk about the first part of the therapeutic order, which is removing obstacles to cure. Now I don't, particularly like the term cure, because you don't cure. Auto immunities people are in post-traumatic stress, so you don't necessarily get them a hundred percent out of it,
