How to Unlock Your True Potential and Vitality

Functional Medicine: Unlock Your Optimal Health and Vitality

Health is the real Wealth and we know it.

Are you tired of feeling unwell and not finding answers through traditional medicine?

Functional medicine might just be the solution you're looking for.

It offers a holistic approach to healthcare, focusing on restoring optimal function and balance to your body instead of just treating symptoms.

Whether you're dealing with chronic conditions or simply looking to improve your overall health, functional medicine provides personalized and natural treatments that address the root cause of your health problems.

So, let's explore what functional medicine has to offer and how it can benefit you.


What health conditions can be treated with functional medicine?

Functional medicine can address a wide range of health conditions, including chronic diseases, autoimmune disorders, hormonal imbalances, digestive issues, allergies, and metabolic disorders. It focuses on identifying the root cause of the problem rather than just treating the symptoms, which makes it an effective approach for both prevention and treatment. Functional medicine practitioners use a range of tools and techniques to evaluate and treat patients, including diagnostic tests, nutrition therapy, lifestyle changes, and natural supplements. By addressing the underlying cause of the illness, functional medicine can restore optimal function and balance to the body and help patients achieve lasting health and wellness.


How does functional medicine approach disease diagnosis and treatment?

Functional medicine takes a patient-centered approach to disease diagnosis and treatment. Rather than just treating the symptoms of a disease, functional medicine seeks to identify the root cause of the problem and address it through personalized and natural treatments that aim to restore balance and optimal function in the body. This approach involves a thorough assessment of the patient's medical history, lifestyle, genetics, and environmental factors to understand the underlying causes of their health issues. Functional medicine practitioners use a range of diagnostic tools, such as blood tests and functional lab testing, to identify imbalances and deficiencies in the body. Treatment plans may include dietary changes, supplements, exercise, stress reduction techniques, and other natural interventions that support the body's innate healing abilities. The goal of functional medicine is to empower patients to take an active role in their health and well-being by addressing the root cause of their condition and restoring optimal function and balance in the body.


What are the benefits of functional medicine?

Functional medicine offers several benefits in resolving health problems and restoring optimal function and balance in the body. It focuses on the root cause of the problem instead of just treating the symptoms. It supports the whole person, not just the physical symptoms, by considering mental, emotional, and spiritual health. 

Functional medicine is for anyone who is willing to take control of their health and wants to improve their overall well-being through preventive, natural treatments. It's especially beneficial for those who have chronic health issues that traditional medicine has failed to resolve.

Functional medicine provides coaching and support to help individuals achieve their health goals. This personalized approach addresses the unique needs of each person by creating individualized treatment plans.

Functional medicine helps individuals break free from the ageing vs lifestyle traps by addressing the underlying causes of their health problems, which often include poor diet, lack of exercise, and chronic stress.

By embracing functional medicine, individuals can regain their health, reduce pain and prevent chronic diseases. Health is wealth, and functional medicine empowers individuals to achieve optimal health and vitality.



What are the key principles of functional medicine?

Functional medicine is a holistic approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of an individual's health problems. The key principles of functional medicine include:

1. Individualized care: Functional medicine recognizes that each person is unique, and therefore, requires personalized care that considers their genetics, environment, and lifestyle factors.

2. Integrative medicine: Functional medicine practitioners work with conventional medicine providers to provide a comprehensive approach to healthcare. They also incorporate alternative and natural therapies to promote optimal health.

3. Root cause resolution: Rather than just managing symptoms, functional medicine aims to identify and address the underlying causes of health problems. This approach leads to long-term improvements in health and helps prevent future health problems.

4. Patient-centered care: Functional medicine practitioners work collaboratively with their patients to develop treatment plans that are tailored to their specific needs and goals. They also prioritize education and coaching to empower patients to take control of their health.

5. Prevention: Functional medicine practitioners prioritize preventive strategies to help patients maintain optimal health and prevent chronic diseases.

By following these principles, functional medicine offers a unique approach to healthcare that supports the whole person, not just the symptoms. It can be particularly beneficial for those patients who are looking to improve their health through preventive and natural treatments, and who are seeking a more personalized approach to their healthcare.



Functional Medicine and Executive Coaching: The Tools you need to Take Control of Your Health

If you are tired of feeling like something is not quite right with your health, but you are not getting the answers you need, if you are looking for a more holistic, natural approach to healthcare that prioritizes the person and customized care, then look no further than functional medicine.

Functional medicine offers a unique approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and treating the root causes of health problems, rather than just masking symptoms with medication. By looking at the whole person, including lifestyle factors, genetics, and environmental influences, functional medicine practitioners can provide personalized treatment plans that promote optimal health and prevent chronic diseases.

For example, if you are struggling with digestive issues, a functional medicine practitioner will not simply prescribe medication to alleviate your symptoms. Instead, they will work with you to identify potential triggers, such as food sensitivities or imbalances in gut bacteria, and develop a plan to address these underlying issues. In that way the problem is resolved at its deepest root cause.

Functional medicine is particularly beneficial for those who are looking to improve their health through effective lifestyle modifications, nutrition, health promoting strategies and  specific supplements, depending on each case. Through client education and coaching, at Glow, we inspire and empower our clients to take control of their health because finally they understand the way their body works and what impact positive lifestyle changes can have on their overall well-being. Therefore, willpower becomes a non-issue. Functional Medicine combined with Executive Coaching strategies provides the individual with valuable resources that enable the shift towards wellness, when other approaches fail to bring lasting relief or results.

Investing in employees benefits everyone:

them, the team, the results and society!


The objective of coaching is the development of positive capacities for optimal job performance, improving the well-being and performance of the person.

Many of the executives who seek support in a coach report problems of anxiety and stress, problems managing their time, problems communicating effectively, managing pressure, procrastination problems, among others.

A tool for transformational leadership development

Burns in 1978, laid the foundations for the leadership studies that Bass and Avolio (1994) would later develop. These authors propose the existence of two types of leaders: the transactional leader whose relationships with his employees are based on contingent exchanges: rewards, remuneration, promotions ... and the transformational one based on relationships of influence on the values and attitudes of the teams of work generating greater efficiency in the performance of their work. Executive Coaching at a fundamental level represents a tool for the development of this type of transformational leadership, and its cascade or dominate effect on employees (Ortiz & Mendoza, 2006).

Raises personal and professional potential to the maximum

The ICF defines coaching as a partnership with clients in a creative and stimulating process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. Coaching is a distinct service that differs greatly from therapy, counseling, mentoring, and training. Through coaching, individuals can gain new perspectives on their own challenges and opportunities, greater skill in thinking and decision-making, greater interpersonal effectiveness, and more confidence in carrying out chosen roles in work and life.

Professional coaching increases the productivity of companies by 70%

Companies that use or have used professional coaching for business reasons have experienced an average return on investment equal to seven times their initial investment, according to the Final Report of the Global Study on Coaching Clients, commissioned by the International Federation of Coaching (ICF).

The quality of the results of a company depends on the quality of the conversations that the members of the same have

A Coaching process allows the leader to be aware of what their conversations are like and how they communicate. Through direct feedback from the Coach on their way of communicating, coherence between language, emotion and corporality is observed.

"The Coaching with Ioanna was a very nice experience. The atmosphere during the sessions was relaxed, which helped me share my thoughts and feelings. She inspired trust and managed to assist me in different areas of my life by giving useful advice and guidance. I would recommend her without hesitation".

“I have loved the professionalism and at the same time the warmth and dedication that I felt during the coaching session with Ioanna. I have felt comfortable at all times and above all I have NOT felt judged, which has allowed me to open up more to evolve better. Thank you Ioanna! "

Nawal Errachid

“Ioanna is a "light". She not only makes you feel at the right place with the right person, she also knows how to listen and get straight to the point. She is the perfect balance between empathy and consistency. Within few sessions I got clarity, confidence, got back to inner balance, I also got concrete tips and exercises that help me on a daily basis. Ioanna is definitely highly qualified to coach people and has more than one asset in her bag. I am so much looking forward to continue the journey of empowerment with her.”.

Ioanna thank you very much for the session  🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️  I came feeling very low and I did not even realize it... I was trying to talk from rational part of me - that I am ok.... during session I start feel much better, you questions opened resources and strength in me. I felt warm and very bright light inside... getting back to my wisdom and realizing that “ whatever you do from the place of Love - will be right” took all worries away🙏

Thank you so much again for guiding me in this session 🙏❤️❤️

Well, I cannot stop thinking about it, so I’d better tell you this))


Ioanna, that was fantastic!)) After the session I feel just wonderful, I now am energised and joyful, I am optimistic again and want to stay with these feelings the longest, I want them to become my new “normal”, my default state)) You helped me realise that I used to be sad just out of habit, but I can be different, and I can choose it!) That’s very important. Thank you so very much!))


Have a great weekend ! 🌺♥️

 Solo, darte las gracias por la llamada de esta mañana 

He tenido la sensación de estar en manos de una gran profesional y me has transmitido mucha confianza

A pesar de la distancia te he sentido de una manera muy cercana

Sosegada, tranquila y sabiendo llevar las pautas 

El tiempo se me ha pasado volando

Muchas gracias


Jesus Cava

Valencia / Spain

I am a life coach myself and having Ioanna as my life coach has been a massive help in my personal life and profession, reminding me to always be my authentic self for myself, my family and my clients! 

Ioanna’s presence allows me to re-connect with my inner resources to effectively cut off from limiting thought patterns, distracting concepts or dis-serving ideas which sometimes get in the way of my productivity, pausing me from the desired action. When I connect with Ioanna, I always re-enter the space to re-start and act from inspiration versus resistance and disheartening effort. 

Having regular weekly sessions with Ioanna is a game-changer. She is supportive, intuitive and doesn’t get drugged down into problem but effectively pulls you out of its energy. Instead, we enter a powerful space where the emergence and prosecution of the desired solution happen.
She’s gifted with many tools and abilities to take you on a journey of living your best life.
I’m ever so GRATEFUL to have her in my life and can’t recommend her services enough!

Working with Glow Coaching is wonderful. No matter the "weather" in my head talking with Ioanna helps me find my power, the will to go on and create a sunshine in me! Ioanna you are an inspiration! You came into my life at the time I needed you the most. Talking with you helps me thrive, glow and empowers me to keep walking knowing that I can DO IT!! You helped me realize who I really am and that my limit is the sky. Thank you. We can do wonders and now I know it! ❤
