KAREN HAKE

Why I Chose Functional Medicine

As a pediatric dentist, I’ve always been passionate about health and wellness.  For years, I followed traditional healthcare approaches, believing that medicine had all the answers. But when I faced my own serious health challenges, I quickly realized that conventional medicine often treats symptoms, not the root cause—and that approach wasn’t enough.  

I found myself struggling with weight issues, hormonal imbalances, fatigue, gut health issues and cardiac rhythm abnormalities.  It was a wake-up call. I knew I needed to take control of my health, but no one could give me clear answers. Instead, I was offered medications that only masked symptoms rather than solving the real problem. 

I knew there had to be a better way.  

That search led me to Functional Medicine, where I discovered how deeply connected  hormones, gut health, inflammation, immunity, cardiovascular function, and lifestyle choices work together.  By addressing the root cause of my imbalances—rather than just treating symptoms—I was able to heal my gut, restore my energy, and regain control over my health.  

Today, I’m not just healthier—I’m thriving. And I’m here to help you do the same.  

I founded my Axis Functional Wellness Coaching  practice because I know firsthand how frustrating it is to feel tired, unwell, and unheard. Whether you’re struggling with fatigue, inflammation, digestion issues, hormonal imbalances, or just feeling “off”, there is a real solution—one that is tailored to  YOUR  body, backed by science, and designed for long-term health.  

You don’t have to accept feeling less than your best.  Let’s uncover the root cause, create a strategy, and get you back to the healthiest, strongest version of yourself.
