Meet Betty McDonald, L.Ac.
Functional Medicine Health Coach ~ Acupuncture
Graduate of Pacific College of Oriental Medicine and Acupuncture,
and the School of Applied Functional Medicine
In 2016, Betty was inspired by Tracy Harrison of the Applied School of Functional Medicine, who taught that health issues can be transformed and chronic diseases be reversed by getting to the root cause of illness. This was the answer she had been looking for. A more effective and innovative way to treat diabetes, heart disease, digestive and autoimmune disorders that didn't respond well to conventional care.
The realization that chronic disease can be reversed or put in remission by using the principles of functional medicine was a turning point in her health and that of her patients.. She began to focus on healing the gut, feeding the soul, nourishing the mitochondria and eliminating toxicity.
