REAL HEALTH SECRETS

Functional, Restorative, and Longevity Medicine

Restorative, regenerative, or longevity medicine deals with restoring the body, mind, and spirit to youthful levels. Recovering and maintaining health and wellness can occur using holistic care, chiropractic care, predictive testing, functional medicine protocols, nutritional counseling, maintaining hormonal balance, and more. Health and vitality begin at the cellular level. If you can keep your cells healthy and hydrated, your organs, tissues, and entire body will remain healthy, as well. A comprehensive natural and conventional medical approach may be needed to maintain cellular level health.

A Wide Range of Knowledge and Focus

A group of wellness providers consisting of doctors, chiropractors, and acupuncturists can offer an integrative, whole-body approach to health and wellness. These professionals provide a variety of treatment modalities under one roof. Whether you are seeking a detailed and comprehensive chiropractic exam and spinal manipulation treatments, or have other health needs that require a holistic and integrative approach, a team atmosphere consisting of various care and treatment protocols can provide substantial benefits.

These various professionals can work together to deliver a high quality of comprehensive care. As a result, patients may receive more individualized services. They may also receive preventative care and counseling on how to maintain a healthy lifestyle in a world filled with physical, mental, and emotional stressors.

Functional Medicine

Functional medicine is the dynamic new paradigm of seeking underlying causes of chronic disease, rather than only treating its symptoms. Practitioners use mostly natural interventions to help patients recover from and prevent chronic and degenerative diseases. This approach departs from disease-management and disease chasing through drugs, which only tend to mask, not cure, illness and disease symptoms. Functional and restorative medicine practitioners treat patients at the cellular level. They work on the premise that sick or dehydrated cells can lead to disease and illness, including problems such as diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Keeping the cell vibrant and healthy helps to avoid illness and achieve well-being.

Restorative Medicine

This branch of medicine subscribes to a new 21st-century paradigm that moves away from the ”disease chasing” and treating symptoms way of thinking. It aims to rise above the conventional ”pill for the ill” treatment that currently defines the healthcare system and standard of care. Restorative medicine seeks to go deep and identify the root cause of illness and disease. Practitioners use more in-depth patient history and physical evaluation. They spend time listening to their patients. They also rely on predictive tests and evaluation tools that may impact a patient favorably, stopping, or even reversing, chronic or degenerative illness. Restorative medicine takes a further step by applying interventions that slow the aging process. Practitioners aim to help patients recover from their diseased states and minimize their reliance on conventional medicine, invasive surgical protocols, and side effect-laden pharmaceuticals. These practitioners aim to restore a high quality of life so that a person’s senior years are not spent dealing with the pain, debilitation, and frustration of chronic illness. They help to keep their patients out of the doctor’s office, hospital, assisted care facility, or nursing home.
