Hormone Optimization

Hormone optimization therapy is one of the most important components of our SuperWellnessRx program because it corrects a major underlying cause of aging.  Declining hormone levels is one of the reasons why you become overweight, lose muscle mass and become fatigued when you grow older.  Bioidentical hormones are now available for use in optimizing your hormones.  The goal of natural hormone optimization therapy is to help you be fully functional in all areas of your life–including sexual function–right up to the day you die.  Hormones are replaced to levels of normal physiologic values equivilant to ages 30-35. Optimizing your hormone levels increases vibrancy, virility, energy, muscle mass and reduces body fat.

Chelation of Toxic, Heavy Metals

Over the past century there has been a serious rise in the environment of neuro-toxic chemicals and heavy metals such as mercury and lead. The resultant accumulation of heavy metals in your body poses significant health risks. Chronic mercury exposure from occupational, environmental, dental amalgam and contaminated food exposure is a significant threat to your health. Heavy metals reside in tissue and do not circulate in the blood. In order to determine your level of heavy metals requires an IV challenge with a chelating agent such as DMPS or EDTA. After the IV you collect your urine for six hours and a sample of this is sent to a lab that specializes in testing for heavy metals. This type of test is the gold standard for testing for damaging toxic heavy metals.

Prolotherapy

Prolotherapy is a non-surgical treatment that repairs and restores injured joints.  It involves a proliferate solution of natural substances that are injected directly into the site where the weakened ligament attaches to the bone. These injections then trigger the creation of healthy tissue which then properly stabilizes the bones and joints, relieving various musculoskeletal pain and stiffness. Prolotherapy is one of the treatments of choice for chronic pain.

Nutritional Supplementation

Nutritional supplements are needed for you to achieve a high level of superwellness.  The nutrient content of our food supply have been severely depleted over the past 30 years due to soil depletion, use of hybrid crops, use of modern fertilizers, and use of pesticides and herbicides that damage soil microorganisms and reduce the nutrient value of the crops.  Long-distance transportation of many foods diminishes their nutrition.  Modern food processing drastically reduces nutrient content of our foods as well.  Food additives can also further deplete the nutrient value of food.  We asses your current nutritional state and then–based on your individual nutritional deficiencies–recommend only high quality, primarily whole food supplements to help you achieve a higher level of superwellness.

SuperWellness Diet

The Paleo diet–the original human diet–has been proven to be the healthiest way to eat to achieve a high level of superwellness.  By diet we do not mean calorie restriction, but rather a specific way of eating.  Modern diets are ill suited for our genetic composition.  Evolution has not kept pace with advances in agriculture and food processing resulting in a plague of health problems for modern man. Coronary heart disease, diabetes, cancer, osteoporosis, obesity and psychological dysfunction have all been scientifically linked to a diet high in refined or processed carbohydrates. What is the Paleo diet?  In plain language, the Paleo diet consists of eating  garden vegetables, especially greens, fruit, lean meats, nuts and seeds, little starch, and no sugar. Protein should be lean and varied and account for about 30% of your total caloric load. Carbohydrates should be predominantly low-glycemic and account for about 40% of your total caloric load. Fat should be predominantly monounsaturated and account for about 30% of your total caloric load.

SuperWellness Fitness

The last component of our SuperWellnessRx program involves working with you to impliment the best fitness program available–a program called CrossFit.  CrossFit is a core strength and conditioning program designed to elicit as broad an adaptational response as possible. CrossFit is not a specialized fitness program but a deliberate attempt to optimize physical competence in each of ten recognized fitness domains.  They are Endurance, Stamina, Strength, Flexibility, Power, Speed, Coordination, Agility, Balance and Accuracy. The CrossFit WorkOut of the Day (WOD) is designed to enhance an individual’s competency at all physical tasks.  Done right, fitness provides a large margin of protection against the ravages of time and disease. Fitness is essentially superwellness. Sickness, wellness and fitness are all measures of the same entity.
