Dr. Nadine, DC, FMACP
Founder of EmpowHER Functional. Veteran. Trauma survivor. Compassionate healer.
I’m Dr. Nadine Brinton, DC, FMACP—a functional medicine and longevity practitioner with over 12 years of clinical experience helping women reclaim their vitality and self-trust.
But my path to healing didn’t begin in a clinic.
It started in Iraq, as a U.S. Army combat driver with the 101st Military Intelligence Battalion during Operation Iraqi Freedom II. That’s where I learned how to survive—through pain, pressure, and invisible wounds.
When I returned home, everything fell apart. I battled spinal and brain injuries, parasitic infections, adrenal exhaustion, hormonal chaos, mold illness, EBV, and deep emotional trauma.
Traditional medicine couldn’t help me.
Functional medicine saved me.
That’s why I created EmpowHER Functional
Root-cause focused
Trauma-informed
Fully present & personalized
I’ve lived through emotional abuse, isolation, gaslighting, and sexual assault. I know the cost of unprocessed trauma—how it steals your energy, disrupts your hormones, and shuts down your nervous system. I also know what it takes to heal.
This clinic is a safe space for women to feel fully seen and supported.
Where your symptoms aren’t dismissed as “just stress.”
Where your story is heard, honored, and held.
Where science meets soul.
Today, I help women in perimenopause regulate their hormones, heal their guts, balance their adrenals, and finally feel like themselves again—maybe for the first time.
You’re not crazy. You’re not broken.
You’re just in the middle of the shift.
And you don’t have to go through it alone.

FAQs
What is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine is a personalized, patient-centered approach that identifies and addresses the root causes of illness. It considers the complex interplay of genetics, environment, and lifestyle to optimize health and prevent disease.
Why Functional Medicine Labs are Different?
Unlike standard labs that look for disease within a broad “normal” range, functional labs dig deeper.
They evaluate optimal ranges and uncover subtle imbalances before they escalate.
These tests examine hormones, gut health, inflammation, micronutrients, and metabolic function—giving you a full picture of your body.
That’s how we create truly personalized plans that restore balance—not just manage symptoms.
What to Expect During a Functional Medicine Consultation
Your consultation includes a thorough review of your health history, symptoms, environment, and lifestyle.
Together, we create a customized plan that gets to the real reasons you don’t feel your best.
How Long Until I See Results?
Your results will depend on the complexity of your case, your commitment to the plan, and a few other factors.
Some women feel improvement quickly—others need time to peel back the layers. We walk with you every step of the way.
