Our Approach | BHRT & Functional Medicine

Our Unique Approach

Our Silk Life Roadmap is a unique approach to help women regain their energy, focus and hormone balance naturally so they can live life fully, feeling and looking their best… especially if you’ve already seen lots of doctors.

Women often experience a wide range of hormonal symptoms (even after seeing health experts) because areas that directly impact their hormones are not addressed or often ignored.

We partner with each client to achieve these steps, starting with the Review Phase:

During the intake, we'll review your past medical history and any previous lab tests so we can assess your hormonal symptoms and identify anything your doctor may have missed. We take the time to truly understand your story before recommending anything.

Next, we'll determine which additional lab tests are needed to pinpoint the real reasons your hormonal symptoms are out of control. This includes a comprehensive look at your current hormone levels, thyroid function, adrenal output, blood sugar regulation, and stress markers.

After your results are in, we'll conduct a thorough review — connecting your labs directly to your symptoms — and build a personalized treatment plan. We'll prioritize immediate symptom relief using a variety of healing protocols, including BHRT if appropriate, and tailor everything to your unique needs and situation.

In the hormone rebalancing step, we provide targeted thyroid and adrenal support to restore energy and improve metabolic function. We also address blood sugar balance and possible insulin resistance, then restore proper levels of your key reproductive hormones — estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone — to bring your system back into harmony.

Next, we turn to the metabolic factors that make weight loss resistant — insulin sensitivity, thyroid function, cortisol patterns, and body composition. We identify what's been working against you and build a targeted plan to shift your metabolism into a fat-burning, muscle-preserving state that actually responds to your efforts

After, we start by fine-tuning your nutrition and diet to repair any nutritional deficiencies that may be contributing to your symptoms. We'll also address sleep and stress management — rebalancing your nervous system, strengthening parasympathetic tone, and dialing down inflammatory signals to support better mood, focus, and hormone production.

Chronic inflammation is often the hidden driver behind stubborn symptoms that don't fully resolve even after hormones are optimized. In this phase, we work to identify and address the sources of inflammation that most providers never look for — including toxic burden from environmental exposures, gut dysbiosis, and underlying infections.

With your foundation in place, we shift focus to building and preserving lean muscle, enhancing physical endurance, and supporting your body's ability to perform and recover. Whether you're an athlete, an active professional, or simply want to feel strong and capable, this phase helps you maximize what your optimized hormones make possible.

In the final step of your Silk Life Roadmap, we work to reestablish the right mindset and a new health identity — so you can continue to reap the benefits for years to come. Given our integrative approach, we help you curate an ongoing self-care routine that sustains your results, prevents relapse, and keeps you thriving at every age.

How Our Approach Is Different

At Silk Life, you're never just a number on a lab report. Our care team takes a whole-person approach, looking at your hormones, metabolism, gut health, nutrition, and lifestyle together. We take time to understand your full health picture so we can build a plan that actually moves the needle and keeps you feeling your best for the long haul.

We use advanced lab testing to identify patterns standard panels miss — then build a protocol around what your data actually shows.

We address the root cause, not the symptom. Masking what's wrong lets the underlying problem progress.

We adjust care as your body responds. This isn't a one-time prescription, it's ongoing clinical oversight.

We optimize hormone balance based on your specific biology: genetics, age, metabolic status, and how your body processes treatment.

We use the most targeted intervention available whether that's nutrition, BHRT, peptides, or a combination, not whatever's easiest to prescribe.

Using natural, non-toxic therapies to balance your hormones, activating the body’s amazing ability to heal itself.

Cindy Amann
I love the way I feel thanks to Silk Life. It has truly changed my life for the better having my hormones checked and getting on a regiment that works with my lifestyle. I love the staff and the office. I ADORE Tina (owner and PA at the practice). Not only is she well spoken and easy to share with, she is also incredibly knowledgeable in all health related questions. It was so nice to be heard and taken seriously. I have never felt better and would refer and recommend everyone I know to Silk Life. I can’t say enough positive things. If you are wondering where to go, look no further! This is definitely your place.
Stephanie Pope
The biggest thing i will say about Dr. Jacobs (Tina) and her team is that they dont give up. They seem to celebrate us all as individuals who all need something different and defining these needs takes time and it’s always evolving. I enjoy going on the journey with Silk Life in making the quality of my life the best it can be.
