This is What Health Care Should Be.
Everyone deserves health care that is root-cause focused, holistic, integrative, and personalized, not split into separate, disconnected systems. InHealthRVA was founded on the belief that every person deserves a healthy body and mind so they can live their full human potential. We provide the breadth and depth of care to help you feel better now, stay well over time, and move with you through every stage of your life and health goals.
At InHealthRVA, our team takes an integrated, whole-person approach to health care, bringing together the best of many traditions. Your care can blend Functional, Lifestyle, Chinese, Natural, Mind-Body, Holistic, Conventional, and Integrative medicine into one connected plan tailored to you.
Most clinics focus on a single problem or offer only one kind of help (for example, cardiology only, mycotoxin illness only, or a narrow set of treatments such as hormone replacement or Lyme protocols). InHealthRVA is different. We are able to analyze and support you across many health needs and across your lifetime.
That might mean referring you to a specialist for diagnostic testing and then bringing their findings back into your comprehensive health plan, or helping you manage complex, long-term conditions with a thoughtful mix of natural and pharmaceutical approaches.
Membership also includes integrative primary care. We are here across the full spectrum of your health care needs, from annual physicals and wellness check-ins to planning for healthy aging and navigating complex health challenges.

how our membership plans can help!
We’re Functional and Integrative Medicine Specialists.
Root Cause Medicine
We tackle the root causes of disease. While conventional medicine typically uses diagnoses that are more descriptive than diagnostic, the Functional Medicine approach asks why we have certain symptoms and diagnosis, not just “what.”
Wholistic Systems
We know that you are unique and your current health is the result of multiple influences including, your genetics, epigenetics, personal and environmental life history.
Advanced Functional Labs
InHealthRVA utilizes carefully vetted and selective labs to help us analyze and understand your health. We look at more than just a CBC, CMP and lipids to figure out what is going on in your body.
Personalized Medicine
We work to understand what’s going on, how to address the root causes of your health issues and to create an individual health plan to get you to your optimal wellness.
InHealthRVA Membership & Care FAQs
-
We practice whole-person health care — blending the best of conventional, functional, lifestyle, and natural medicine, with the wisdom of Chinese and mind-body approaches.
Our care is personalized, evidence-informed, and designed to meet you where you are — whether that means optimizing your health, solving a complex issue, or maintaining wellness over time.
-
Our practice is for anyone who wants to feel well, live well, and stay well — with a trusted medical team who knows them personally.
We help people with ongoing health challenges such as fatigue, hormone or gut issues, inflammation, or autoimmunity — and also those who are dissatisfied with the status quo of conventional medicine and know they deserve a whole-person centered approach with a variety of health options. We offer the best preventive, lifestyle-based care as well as conventional medicine.
-
Functional medicine is one of the tools we use — but our approach goes beyond any single model. We integrate functional, conventional, and natural therapies to get to the root causes of health issues while supporting your body’s innate ability to heal.
You don’t have to fit a label — we tailor your care to you.
-
We combine the accessibility of a membership practice with the depth and heart of integrative medicine.
Your membership ensures ongoing access to care from a practitioner who listens, knows your history, and brings the full breadth of modern, natural, and traditional medicine to whatever you need — when you need it.
We’re here for you for the healing process and for the a lifetime of wellness & health optimization. Membership allows us to stay ready and available for you across the seasons of your health.
-
Yes. We use a hybrid insurance and membership model.
Insurance covers what it can (such as nurse practitioner visits and many labs), and your membership covers what insurance doesn’t — the time, depth, and personalization that make this care possible.
You can also use your HSA or FSA for appointments, testing, and many treatments.
-
Your first visit is a deep dive — about two hours to truly understand your history, goals, and biology.
From there, we design a plan together. This may include labs, lifestyle changes, or therapies. Follow-ups are typically 30–60 minutes and scheduled as needed — not by default.
We’ll stay connected through your portal for questions and ongoing support.
-
Most labs return results within 2–3 weeks, though some specialized tests take longer. We’ll notify you as soon as results are in, and your follow-up is typically scheduled once we have all the data.
-
No — you’re always in charge of your care.
We’ll help you prioritize what’s most useful and cost-effective, and you can decide what feels right. Our role is to be your expert partner, helping you with the power of information, consolidating your specialists recommendations, to support you in making informed choices that align with your goals and values.
-
For urgent concerns: call the front desk at 804-288-1111.
For non-urgent matters: send a message through your patient portal.We typically respond within one business day.
We’re not an urgent care facility — if you have a medical emergency, please visit urgent care or the ER.
-
We’ll send you prescriptions through our professional dispensaries — Fullscript or Wellevate — or, for specialty items, directly through the manufacturer.
You’ll receive everything you need by email after your visit.
-
Not exactly — but it shares similarities.
Like concierge medicine, our membership model gives you direct access to your care team, longer visits, and a focus on prevention and personalization.
What makes us different is what happens in those visits: While concierge medicine offers more attention, it is still conventional care, maybe with a splash of supplements or HRT. We bring together the breath and depth of the best Functional, conventional, natural, lifestyle, and Chinese medicine to address chronic health care issues, healthy aging, basic health needs and everything else, from heart disease and diabetes to Long COVID and Mycotoxin illness.
You don’t pay for “white glove, 24/7” access — you pay for real, relationship-based care with a team that knows you and offers you comprehensive health care options.
What our patients are saying about us
“Although I have only had my initial visit so far, I am extremely impressed with InHealthRVA. Tressa was more thorough than any doctor I've ever seen. She took 1 1/2 hours talking with me and asking questions to get to know my health and my concerns. I am excited about the plan we made moving forward.” — Catherine A.
Working with InHealthRVA has made a substantial impact on my quality of life. As a runner with significant gut issues, I experienced anxiety anytime I stepped foot outside to go for a run. I now feel in control of my issues and my running performance is thriving. The process to get here was not a quick fix. It required a willingness to put in the work, but I am so grateful to InHealthRVA for the holistic approach to improve my health and quality of life. — A. S.
“InHealthRVA is a wonderful practice for anyone wishing to dive deeper into their health issues than traditional medicine allows. Tressa and her team are thorough, caring and knowledgeable. The office is always welcoming and willing to help in any way necessary to make each visit worthwhile. Such a pleasure not to feel rushed and have things explained in detail. It’s an amazing practice that I highly recommend.” — Sharon S.
“I've finally found a practice that will take the time to find the cause of my issues and piece them all together. I am very satisfied with the personal care that InHealthRVA gives its patients. I highly recommend Tressa Breindel and this practice to others.”— Mary C.
