Dr. Christina Carlyle Functional Doctor Areas of Expertise Infographic

Most traditional doctors focus on managing symptoms with prescriptions. But if you’ve ever left an appointment feeling unheard, frustrated, or told “your labs look fine” while you still feel anything but fine, you’re not alone.

As a doctor of functional medicine, my approach is different. I use advanced lab testing and targeted lifestyle protocols to identify and correct the root causes that are keeping you stuck.

Instead of masking symptoms, we dig deep into the “why” – lifestyle, stress, toxins, gut health, hormones, inflammation, and more – and address the root cause naturally so your body can finally heal and function the way it’s supposed to.

WHAT I DO NOT DO or RECOMMEND

TRADITIONAL DOCTOR

Rely on prescriptions, procedures, and quick fixes

Treat the body as separate parts and specialties

Use one-size-fits-all treatment plans –‘if you have this, take this med/do this lab/procedure”

Focus on short-term symptom relief – not prevention or what causes symptoms

Expect you to be passive & follow orders (take meds, do labs/procedures no questions asked)

Require in-person office visits with long waits, limited time and accessibility

Ignore the connection between stress, lifestyle, and symptoms

HOW I BECAME A DOCTOR OF FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE

Before I ever became Dr. Christina Carlyle, I was already a nutritionist and personal trainer. I was doing everything “right” on paper, yet I still did not feel right in my own body. Strange symptoms started piling up, my anxiety was through the roof, and I had this deep knowing that something was wrong.

I was told I was fine. I wasn’t.

I went to 29 different doctors, a mix of conventional and functional. But my labs were normal. I was told it was stress, age, and to try birth control and anti-depressants.

But I knew something was wrong so I kept digging.

Eventually, I found a doctor that finally told me what was wrong. But their only suggestion was more supplements.

That’s when I started my journey to becoming the functional doctor I couldn’t find but desperately needed.

I studied functional medicine and healed myself along the way using little known functional nutrition, healing exercises, and fast-acting supplements. When I put it all together I healed and got my life and body back.

Now I help others do the same, giving them answers, the root causes of the symptoms, and personalized functional plans that work quickly and naturally.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of training did you receive?

I am a Doctor of Functional Medicine (DFM), Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P), Holistic Nutritionist (HN), and Personal Trainer. I received my doctorate from Rockwell School of Holistic Medicine. My pre doctorate education and training is in Functional Nutrition & Holistic Health and Metabolic Health. I have received complete training in the biological sciences such as anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology, epidemiology, gastroenterology, endocrinology, parasitology, and functional blood chemistry. In addition, I have received extensive training in clinical nutrition, botanical & herbal interventions, somatic healing practices, trauma, and behavior modification and lifestyle counseling.

Do you prescribe Medication?

Nope, that’s not my lane. I don’t prescribe or adjust prescription medications or controlled substances—that’s a job for your prescribing medical doctor. My role is to help you feel better (and stay better) using safe, natural, and non-invasive approaches. Think nutritional therapy, targeted supplements, functional herbs, stress-relieving techniques, and lifestyle shifts that address the root causes of what’s going on in your body. My goal is to get you back to optimal health and function—without the side effects and frustrations that so often come with a “just take this pill” approach.

Do you take Insurance?

I don’t bill insurance. Functional Medicine is still considered “outside the box” by most insurance companies, so the majority of my services are elective and not covered. That said, my online programs and one-on-one services are eligible for FSA (Flexible Spending Account) & HSA funds – which can be a great way to use pre-tax dollars for your health.

At the end of the day, I’d rather spend my time focusing on you – your health, your progress, your results – instead of fighting with insurance paperwork. My goal is to make Functional Medicine approachable, effective, and worth every penny you invest in yourself.

Is Functional Medicine Expensive?

Not at all. Functional Medicine is designed for anyone who wants to feel better and take control of their health. Most of my patients are everyday working and middle-class folks – nurses, teachers, small business owners – people who simply want real answers and lasting results.

My practice is 100% virtual and conducted via tele-health so that I can keep the costs of my services low.

The total cost depends on a few things: the type of lab testing you may need, which natural therapies or protocols are best for you, and how much support you’d like through webcam visits. I offer flexible Functional Medicine treatment plans and options, so you can choose the level of care that works for your lifestyle and budget.

I always make sure your budget goes towards the solution that gets results.

My mission is simple: to make Functional Medicine affordable, accessible, and effective for real people around the world—not just the wealthy few.

How do I know if Functional Medicine is right for me?

The best place to start is right here with an initial consult and case review to see how we can work together.

Functional Medicine isn’t just my career—it’s my calling. I take your health seriously, but I also believe the process should feel encouraging, supportive, and yes… even fun. Over the months we work together, many of my patients become more than patients—they become friends, and often feel like family.

It’s an honor to be part of someone’s healing journey, and I’d be humbled to walk alongside you on yours.
