Overview
PIH Academy Course 4 certification program puts personalized, functional, integrative care together for you in a 6-module virtual course, filled with engaging lectures and discussions, practice worthy clinical pearls and guidance from colleagues.
The 21st century has brought with it unprecedented challenges. Environmental effects of toxins, antinutrients, and viruses have resulted in decreased life expectancy, immune, and digestive health, along with diminished soil and air quality.
- What could be missing in your healing journey?
- What is inhibiting your innate tendency to thrive?
- How can we achieve optimal wellness?
These questions and more will be addressed in the PIH Academy 2022 educational sessions.
Using a ‘Physiology before Pharmacology’ approach, PIH Academy’s 4th year’s course will focus on overcoming 21st Century challenges and providing the opportunities and tools to decrease chronic illness and thrive—with healthier youthful vitality for all.
The agenda is crafted to meet the needs of the functional and integrative healthcare practitioner with an interest and focus on a robust healthspan. The experts concentrate on the different aspects of health including digestion, detoxification, bone and joint health, hormones, and the environmental influences of heavy metals and molds.

The Physiology First practice philosophy focuses on the processes and functions that create, sustain, and optimize life. It is an approach that looks at how the things we eat, drink, think and do impact us physiologically – either supporting or detracting from optimal function. Physiology First (before pharmacology) is at the core of proactive prevention and the practice of functional medicine.
