The program will cover: Small & large intestine, thyroid gland, stress & sex hormones, body function & nutrition

30 August – 13 December 2021

Mentor: Graeme Jones, clinical physiologist and CEO at Nordic Clinic Stockholm 

Together, Nordic Laboratories and Nordic Clinic lead the way in functional medicine in Europe. Our goal is ambitious – we aim to change the current healthcare model by preventing disease rather than just treating symptoms. We aim to optimise health and wellbeing, and believe the future of medicine is individualised healthcare. We can’t reach that goal on our own and we want to support others with the same ambition. That’s why we offer mentorship programs for functional medicine doctors and practitioners.

Functional Medicine is a new method of healthcare delivery and only a few individuals have solid clinical experience within the field. The work complexity is high and various parameters need to be considered in the clinical approach to find the underlying causes of symptoms and disease. Starting a career within this field can feel overwhelming, but also challenging to structure work, interpret test results, gather all pieces of the health puzzle and then choose a treatment strategy. Our goal with the mentorship programs is to share our clinical experiences and support other functional medicine practitioners in their clinical work. We want the group of practitioners to grow, who actively work to defeat the global epidemic of chronic disease spreading rapidly around our globe. 

Our mentorship programs are for functional medicine practitioners already working within the functional medicine field, wanting to develop their confidence with clinical cases in more specialist areas. This specific programme covers small & large intestine, thyroid gland, stress & sex hormones, body function & nutrition. To participate, basic knowledge of the functional medicine approach and testing is required. If you are uncertain if your level of competence is appropriate for the program, please contact mdahlberg@nordicgroup.eu.

The program will not include theory about various tests (for a deeper understanding of theory and testing, we regularly offer test specific training). The program will focus on real client cases and how you clinically approach the detective work to find root causes of symptoms and create successful treatment plans.
