Your skin often reflects what's going on inside your body, and functional testing can help you understand that connection a lot more clearly. It's a helpful starting point if you feel like you've tried everything else already for your acne.

It's easy to assume that using antiseptics bacterial cleansers will help clear your skin faster, but that habit can sometimes fail to consider the root causes behind your acne and why it's occurring in the first place.

If you think your skincare routine might be working against you, consider visiting our website or checking out the link below to learn more.

We are humbled each time we see another patient move forward and leaving painful eczema behind.

Our skin expert, Functional Medicine Practitioner Rebecca and Coach Jess have many years working as a team for their patients with eczema. Seeing their skin resolve after treatment means everything to them. Thank you Alice for your kind review.

"Coming into the program, I was desperate to see some results but anxious/skeptical as everything else I had tried failed. My work with Rebecca, Jess and the team has been life-changing. I was suffering from very painful eczema and swelling on my face and body which was impacting my whole life. 99% of which has now cleared up (plus I’ve learnt how to manage symptoms/lifestyle to avoid flares). Very happy and couldn't recommend more. Thank you MFM team ☺️"

Acne inversa isn't a surface condition. The infection forms under the skin, which is why topical treatments can't reach it, and why so many people find that nothing they try at home makes a real difference.

If that's been your experience, comment ACNE below and we'll send you more on our treatment approach.

For those that were wondering, a lot of our patients aren't in Melbourne.

Some are interstate. Some are on the other side of the world. Some can't make it to the clinic because of their illness or their schedule.

All of our appointments are available via telehealth, which means you can work with our practitioners and health coaches from anywhere in Australia or internationally.

The process is exactly the same. The quality of care is exactly the same. And for functional lab testing, most kits are sent directly to your home, so you don't need to visit a collection centre.

If you've been putting off getting proper support because of where you live, we hope this is useful.

We are an outcome of the things we repeat - the thoughts, actions, beliefs, behaviours. And when we've done them enough, they're so automatic, we often don't even realise we're doing them. This is especially true for our thoughts - the habit of our thinking.⁠
⁠
What's the big deal? They're just thoughts.⁠
True. They are 'just' thoughts. But thoughts are one of the key branches of information that your nervous system (aka super sensitive security system) is observing. And when it hears worry, fear, future catastrophe, panic, rushing, 'what if', road rage, impatience, annoyance - and those thoughts are consistent, guess what? Your body will interpret threat.⁠
⁠
When it does, resources are redirected, hormones are hijacked, heart rate is heightened, adrenaline is activated….sympathetic nervous system activation is underway - and you might not even realise it.⁠

Conventional treatment for acne inversa often focuses on managing symptoms as they arise, through antibiotics, steroids, and in more serious cases, surgery. For some people, these approaches are necessary and appropriate.

But, if you've been through multiple rounds of treatment and symptoms keep returning, it might be worth asking whether the underlying factors have been looked at appropriately.

A functional medicine approach digs a little deeper and considers things like gut health, immune function, hormone balance, and lifestyle, with the goal of reducing what's driving the condition (not just treating it when it flares up).

Comment ACNE below and we'll send you more on our treatment approach.

There is a very good chance that you don't recognise yourself as stressed⁠
That is, unless you're in a moment of overwhelm or big drama. But remember, stressed is not stressed out⁠
⁠
Curious to learn more? Sign up to our Nervous System & Breathwork Workshop being held next week. ⁠
⁠
This workshop is being hosted by coach and breathwork facilitator Bee Pennington who in just 30 mins will share how stress physically shows up in the body, and small, immediately usable techniques to shift it and move to a more nourishing nervous system state. You'll learn why stressed is not always feeling stressed out.⁠
