Restorative Medicine
RESTORATIVE AND REJUVENATION MEDICINE - what is it?
America is getting older
As we age, there is an increase in the incidence of several diseases, which can involve almost all body systems and affect most people. The statistics on this are staggering. The incidence of heart disease, stroke, joint disease and obesity all increase as we age; all may be regarded as chronic diseases related to the intrinsic aging process.
We can turn back the clock...
While your chronological age cannot be halted or reversed, new scientifically advanced medical technologies can slow its process and can add quality and quantity to your life. The medical specialty of anti-aging and restorative medicine believes that we can apply these technologies to the early detection, prevention, treatment and reversal of age-related dysfunction, disorders and diseases.
In recent years there has been a dramatic change in our understanding of the aging process. We used to believe that hormone levels decline as we age; we now know that we age because our hormone levels decline. This decline leads to the manifestation of several disease processes that affect many people for large parts of their lives, including symptoms of perimenopause, menopause and postmenopause in women and of andropause in men. In both men and women hormone decrease can manifest itself as adrenal stress, fatigue, joint pains, muscle aches, anxiety, depression, lack of sexual interest and obesity. Through Individualized Hormonal Replacement Therapy (IHRT), your hormone levels can be restored, yielding amazing results: people regain their energy and vitality, find greater endurance and confidence in their abilities.
