Description

In this episode of To The Root, Robyn Spangler explores the two most common approaches to managing chronic skin conditions: conventional care and functional medicine. While conventional care often relies on long-term prescriptions and symptom management, functional medicine can leave patients overwhelmed with extensive testing, supplement regimens, and restrictive diets.

Robyn shares her personal experience navigating both ends of the spectrum and explains why the Clear Skin Lab offers a third path—one that blends clinical expertise, evidence-based strategies, and individualized care. From addressing the emotional side of healing to building sustainable, results-driven plans, this conversation highlights what it truly means to pursue root-cause solutions.
