Mare Tomaski is one of the course facilitators for the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy (https://functionalmedicinecoaching.org/) and one of the coaches for Pure Living.
Mare was introduced to Functional Medicine through Mark Hyman’s practice back in the day before he called it Ultra Wellness because she had this chronic strep throat that wouldn’t go away. He was in western Massachusetts and she was in eastern Massachusetts so Dr. Hyman referred her to the Marino Center in western Mass. Dr. John Bordick, Ed Levitan and his wife Wendie Trubow were her primary physicians. Sidenote: Ed Levitan and Wendie Trubow have recently released a book called Dirty Girl: Ditch the Toxins, Look Great and Feel FREAKING AMAZING! Check it out here:

These physicians coached her through the functional medicine model and started her on a food protocol. Mare could not believe that there was some form of medicine that was so closely aligned with naturopathic medicine, which was her reference point. She thought “this is naturopathic medicine with science behind it.”
The care she received at the Marino Center was absolutely revolutionary compared the conventional medicine that she was accustomed to. Between the homeopathy and the change of diet, that strep throat went away and it never came back.
She stayed in touch with all of those doctors for years and years and they referred her to The Institute for Functional Medicine who referred her to the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy. Mare attended The New Mexico Academy of Healing Arts in Santa Fe, New Mexico where she learned about structural integration, massage therapy, yoga, stress reduction and more. She later completed her training with the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy and became a course facilitator.
We are so fortunate to have Mare as part of our team at Pure Living. You can book with her here:

She says that the real value of Functional Medicine for her is getting to the real root cause or causes and getting a more complete healing.
