As part of our commitment to root cause medicine we have been hosting the Functional Forum official Manhattan meetup on the first Monday of each month. The Functional Forum has always been a live event on the first Monday of every month in NYC. It is now national! The official Manhattan, NYC meetup and screening of the live event has been held at KIMA since the beginning of the year with dozens of others running concurrently around the world. The Functional Forum is the world’s largest integrative medicine conference. This new concept in practitioner education, “medutainment”, brings together the latest health news, functional medicine research, practice development and health technology in an upbeat, entertaining way. They curate the industry’s leading innovators in a mixed-media format that combines interviews, TED-style talks, videos, audience interaction, and music. Scaling their influence through empowering community in every corner of the globe, encouraging and facilitating meetups around this monthly content.
