Our Story

Minnesota Center for Functional Medicine (formerly known as Celtic Chiropractic) is located in Excelsior, near the intersection of Highway 7 and County Road 41. We specialize in functional medicine and chiropractic services. Functional medicine focuses on lifestyle changes and nutritional support to treat the underlying root cause of symptoms to restore patients to health. Specialties include digestive problems, fatigue, low energy, poor sleep, hormone imbalances, thyroid problems and autoimmune diseases. Dr. Rory Faherty is a Doctor of Chriopractic and IFM Certified Practitioner. As an IFM Certified Practitioner of The Institute for Functional Medicine’s Certification Program (IFMCP), Dr. Rory Faherty is uniquely trained in the Functional Medicine model to identify and treat the root causes of chronic disease. In order to achieve the designation of IFM Certified Practitioner, Dr. Rory Faherty has completed seven training seminars and passed stringent written and case study evaluations.

Of total healthcare costs in the United States, an estimated 86% are spent on chronic conditions. The current healthcare system is designed to treat urgent medical problems, also known as “acute” conditions. However, chronic, lifestyle-related diseases cannot be treated successfully using the same approach. What works is an individualized approach to patients—with an emphasis on the ways our environment and lifestyle choices interact with our genes. Functional Medicine is an innovative approach to medical care. It uses the latest medical research to develop personalized care for each patient, based on his or her unique environment, lifestyle, and genes. The result is a dynamic, effective way to address chronic disease.

Our passion and mission is to find the root cause of your health condition, create a plan to address the root cause(s), and educate and support you on your journey to reclaim your health. Commit to your future. Call us today.
