Comprehensive Approach To Health

At RBIM we help patients truly reach optimal health by seeking the root causes of disease, using comprehensive testing and personalizing plans for each individual. We treat people with chronic conditions as well as people who want to prevent disease and optimize their health. Dr. Sisu and Dr. Polahar have training in the fields of conventional medicine, integrative and functional medicine, acupuncture and osteopathic medicine that allows them to offer true comprehensive holistic assessments and treatment plans. Their approach combines conventional medicine treatments with proven, personalized complementary therapies to treat your physical, mental, emotional or spiritual well-being.

Why try a Functional medicine approach?

Because complete wellness is much more than simply the absence of disease. It is about balance – the balance of body, mind and spirit. And having that balance restores your vitality, promotes wellness, prevents disease and helps you live your life to its fullest potential.

Are you tired of feeling tired? Do chronic issues like headaches, digestive issues such as IBS or back and neck pain cause you to miss out on the enjoyable things in life? Do you suffer from a variety of daily symptoms that traditional medicine cannot explain? This keeps you sitting on the sidelines while life moves on around you. Yet there are root causes to your chronic conditions, and very often visiting a variety of medical specialists and undergoing endless clinical testing yields no answers.

Functional medicine is how we get beneath those symptoms to discover the true underlying root causes. We look for the connections between your chronic symptoms like fatigue, inflammation, digestive issues, and examine your lifestyle choices, genetic history and the environment you live in to address every factor possible. Mind-body health is more than lab work and diagnostics; it requires a comprehensive treatment modality that encompasses all systems working together. If you are not getting any definitive answers and are being told that your diagnostic testing is “normal,” then functional medicine is for you.

At Restore Balance Integrative Medicine, we can help. We utilize a personalized approach that combines the best of conventional and functional medicine, acupuncture, botanical extracts and nutritional supplementation to deliver the most efficient healing experience. We provide you with the professional medical expertise,  the resources and the support you need, and we partner with you on your journey to wellness.

Get in touch with us below, and we can start you on the right track toward health and wellness! Request a complimentary 10-minute phone consultation.

We offer tele medicine and in person visits for new and existing patients. Our holistic, science-based approach is reliable and results driven, and you will find it of great help during these uncertain times. Get advice from a certified medical doctor to optimize your health, fight illness, customize your supplements and prevent chronic disease.

“I was looking for a functional medicine doctor who has a good knowledge of herbal and other alternatives for someone who has struggled with blood glucose control most of my adult life. I found Dr. Polahar. She did not make promises but has worked with me and as since I have held my end of keeping my diet right and exercising I am now going off the Metformin. It does work when you have someone with the knowledge to help you. Thank you Dr Polahar!!!”

“I am pleased to highly recommend Dr. Sisu as a medical professional. She is an intuitive and deeply knowledgeable doctor who takes the time to listen carefully to her patients. Dr. Sisu’s approach is not to jump immediately to Western medicine but to work collaboratively with you to find a healthier, gentler solution to your ailments.

What stands out most about Dr. Sisu is her laser-focus on what’s truly going on with you, both physically and emotionally, which sets her apart from many practitioners. Her compassionate and kind nature further enhances the experience, making you feel genuinely cared for and heard.

I feel incredibly fortunate to have been referred to Dr. Sisu, as her practice has been one of the best-kept secrets, and I can honestly say I’ve never had such a positive experience with any other healthcare provider. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, holistic, and personalized approach to your health, I highly recommend Dr. Sisu.”

“It’s been a challenging journey with gut issues for the past 7 to 8 years, during which I consulted conventional doctors but didn’t find much relief. However, things changed when I discovered integrative medicine with Dr.Sisu. After nearly a year under the care of her, I’ve been completely cured. Returning to my normal self was a gradual process, requiring patience and commitment. Initially, I was skeptical about the efficacy of integrative medicine, but my experience has completely changed my perspective. My doctor was exceptional, truly a lifesaver, proving that with the right approach and dedication, one can regain health and well-being.”

“Ever since I can remember I have always had issues with food and my gut. I have been to multiple doctors and have had many tests done and they have always been negative. I thought I would have to just manage my symptoms the rest of my life and deal.
The Spring that Covid started a friend mentioned Dr. Sisu to me and thought she might be able to help. From the first appointment I knew she was different from all the other doctors. She genuinely cared and really wanted to help. I have never had a doctor who has been so thorough. Doctor Sisu is the ONLY doctor that was able to diagnose the exact cause of my gastrointestinal problems. She also discovered other concerns along the way. I would not be where I am health-wise without her. Dr. Sisu saved my life and made such a difference. I would highly recommend her! She is the best.”

“The truth about looking at the whole body and not just the site of pain and why looking at my entire being can address issues, that tradition doctors don’t want to do. Doctors today focus on one part, they often don’t even touch you or listen to all you have to say before the diagnosis. You get we have medicine or surgery answer. Dr. Sisu – looks and asks questions about both your physical alignment and your internal systems, before suggesting a path forward. I loved this, I feel I am being treated as the complete me.”
