Anti-Aging Techniques

With aging comes several conditions that can alter the body’s chemistry, including menopause, perimenopause, and andropause (male menopause). We can help patients struggling with menopause and perimenopause by relieving the symptoms with treatment. We can also provide a comprehensive analysis of testosterone and other components of the male hormone cascade. Here is information on each and how our treatment can help.

Menopause

When a menstrual cycle ends around 40 to 50 years of age, many women go through what is known as menopause. Symptoms can include irregular periods, vaginal dryness, thinning hair and dry skin. Since these symptoms can vary in severity, patients will need customized treatment.

We use anti-aging treatment to alleviate the symptoms to help make life easier for the patient.

Perimenopause

Even though menopause is the main condition women in their 40s and 50s will experience, there is also a condition leading up to menopause known as perimenopause. These changes can be somewhat subtle or more noticeable. Some of these can include the symptoms listed above along with irregular periods, vaginal and bladder problems, a decrease in fertility, an increased risk of osteoporosis and fluctuating cholesterol levels.

By addressing these early signs of menopause as soon as possible, we can help ease the transition into menopause. Along with this, we can also help to prepare the patient for the other potential symptoms instead of the patient discovering them on their own.

Andropause

Age-related changes for men can include a drop in testosterone production, low energy, depression, sadness, insomnia, an increase in body fat, erectile dysfunction, a decrease in libido count, feelings of physical weakness and a lack of motivation. In most cases, men can go through these changes upon reaching their late 40s to 50s.

Every man's experience with andropause is different. This is where we can customize the treatment to the patient’s needs. In many cases, men are able to find a treatment that helps them cope with some of these symptoms and live fulfilling lives. The treatment options will vary with creams, injections, gels and other possible methods.

Exclusive Exercise Training

Our exclusive exercise training will provide a specific exercise plan for each patient. We will help to determine the patient’s level of fitness to determine the most effective method to promote positive change.

Lab Analysis

With a professional lab analysis, we can identify any signs or symptoms of a condition by examining specimens. These specimens can include blood, saliva, and stool. Our analysis can detect the early signs of potential health issues that are just starting to develop. Our analysis will strive to target therapies designed to address each individual’s genetic and molecular composition-preventing disease before it starts.
