Optimal Wellness Integrative Family Medicine

Optimal Wellness Integrative Family Medicine, located in Gig Harbor, WA, provides a functional medicine approach to health and wellness. The practice focuses on understanding the underlying causes of chronic symptoms and conditions rather than just managing them. They offer services for concerns like Hashimotos thyroiditis, autoimmune conditions, chronic fatigue, re-activated Epstein-Barr virus, hormonal imbalance, gluten sensitivity, SIBO, and other chronic gastrointestinal issues.

Patients can engage with the clinic through introductory consultations with Dr. Laura Ruby, DNP, CRNP. The practice also offers programs such as the Wellness Rx, a 6-month membership that includes nutritional counseling and food sensitivity testing, designed to support immune function, reduce inflammation, and improve gut health. A Maintenance Rx program is available for ongoing support after completing a functional medicine membership.

The clinic's approach integrates personalized medical strategies with functional testing, holistic medicine, neuroscience, and mind/body tools. This aims to create individualized protocols to help remove obstacles to healing, correct imbalances, and support the body's systems. Services are available through in-person or virtual visits.
