Restoring Homeostasis.
A Different Approach to Chronic Illness, Hormonal Imbalance, and Metabolic Dysfunction.
Beyond Functional Medicine. Restoring Homeostasis.
The Rothman Method™ is a metabolically directed approach that looks beyond
symptoms and diagnoses to identify the underlying stressors and imbalances
affecting your health.
We assess metabolic dysfunction, hormonal disruption, environmental stressors,
and other foundational factors that may interfere with your body’s ability to
regulate, recover, and function properly.
The goal is not simply to manage symptoms, but to identify what is disrupting
homeostasis and create a personalized path toward restoring healthier function
and lasting improvement.
The Rothman Method™
Michael Rothman, MD
For more than three decades, Dr. Rothman has helped patients with complex and chronic health concerns look beyond diagnoses and symptom management to identify the metabolic, hormonal, environmental, and other foundational stressors disrupting homeostasis.
His personalized, metabolically directed approach is designed to help restore your body’s ability to regulate, recover, and function more effectively.

What Is Metabolic Health?
Metabolic health is about more than blood sugar, weight, or cholesterol. It reflects how effectively your body produces and uses energy, responds to physiological stress, and maintains the internal balance needed for healthy function. When these regulatory processes become disrupted, symptoms may develop across multiple body systems.
Acid-Base Balance
How your body regulates its internal acid-base environment to support normal cellular and metabolic function.
Anabolic-Catabolic Balance
The balance between processes that build, repair, and restore tissue and those that break down and release energy.
Autonomic Balance
How the autonomic nervous system coordinates physiological responses involved in regulation, adaptation, and recovery.
Fluid & Electrolyte Balance
How your body regulates fluids and electrolytes that are essential for cellular, nervous system, and metabolic function.
When Your Health Problems Don’t Fit Neatly Into One Diagnosis
Chronic symptoms often involve more than one system. Metabolic dysfunction, hormonal imbalances, environmental stressors, inflammation, and other factors can interact and disrupt your body’s ability to maintain homeostasis.
The Rothman Method™ looks for these connections rather than treating each diagnosis as an isolated problem.
Some of the Health Concerns We Evaluate
Addressing a Wide Range of Health Challenges
Your Path to Restoring Homeostasis
The Rothman Method™ is designed to understand why your body is struggling to regulate, recover, and function properly—not simply to assign another diagnosis or manage individual symptoms.
1
Comprehensive Evaluation
Health history, symptoms, previous testing, environmental exposures, lifestyle, and contributing factors.
2
Identify What’s Disrupting Homeostasis
Evaluate metabolic, hormonal,
environmental, nutritional, and other foundational stressors.
3
Build Your Personalized Plan
integrate the findings into an individualized
strategy.
4
Reassess, Refine & Restore
Follow the response over time and adjust the plan as
physiology changes.
Understanding Complex Illness
Biotoxin and Mold-Related Illness
Environmental exposures can act as significant physiologic stressors and may contribute to symptoms involving multiple systems throughout your body. For susceptible individuals, biotoxin exposure can interfere with metabolic function, hormonal signaling, inflammation, and your body’s ability to maintain homeostasis.
In this presentation, Michael Rothman, MD explains how mold and biotoxin exposure may contribute to complex chronic illness—and why identifying the underlying physiologic disruption is an important part of a comprehensive evaluation.
