Protecting Against Cognitive Decline And Abnormal Aging
Did you know that your brain health is linked to your overall physical health, functional health and performance? In fact, your brain is involved in all aspects of life – It is an organ of health monitoring, regulation, performance, judgment, and decision making. Our brain is the most complex organ in the body as well as the most metabolic organ in the body and requires the largest percentage of calories and oxygen to power it. The brain is also fragile and can be damaged by disease and sub-par lifestyle choices.
As we age, it’s normal for us to become more aware and concerned about our cognitive health and overall wellness. In many instances, it’s the cognitive decline and wellness of a parent, spouse or sibling that becomes an issue of concern. Alzheimer’s disease is the most feared disease for people over the age of 60. Surprisingly, most people don’t know that they can significantly reduce their risk for cognitive decline, Alzheimer’s and other diseases of aging.
Functional Medicine involves understanding the origins, prevention, and treatment of complex, chronic disease.
Functional Medicine
Hallmarks of a Functional Medicine approach include:
Patient-centered care. The focus of functional medicine is on patient-centered care, promoting health as a positive vitality, beyond just the absence of disease.
An integrative, science-based healthcare approach. Functional Medicine practitioners look “upstream” to consider the complex web of interactions in the patient’s history, physiology, and lifestyle that can lead to illness. The unique genetic makeup of each patient is considered, along with both internal (mind, body and spirit) and external (physical and social environment) factors that affect total functioning.
Integrating best practices. Functional Medicine integrates traditional Western medical practices with what are sometimes considered “alternative” or “integrative” medicine, creating a focus on prevention through nutrition, diet, and exercise; use of the latest laboratory testing and other diagnostic techniques; and prescribed combinations of drugs and/or botanical medicines, supplements, therapeutic diets, detoxification programs, or stress-management techniques.
Holistic Approach
We use a science based functional medicine, holistic approach to our process which includes evaluating and addressing the function of the body’s systems. Underlying issues such as genetics, diet, and lifestyle play a large part in our rate of aging and the state of our health. Our approach lends itself to the evaluation of all the body’s systems. By using functional medicine, we can focus on identifying and addressing the underlying cause of illness and distress, rather than suppressing, or treating symptoms. Underlying health issues and treatable pseudo-dementias are often the root causes of cognitive issues.

Our comprehensive gut health focus takes a deep dive into helping you understand and restore microbial, immune, and inflammation balance.

While what we eat, when we eat, and how we eat impacts our overall health, food is also a key therapeutic intervention and can enable your body to reset, decrease inflammation, and decrease immune activation.
Inflammation
Inflammation
Chronic inflammation takes a tremendous toll on our body and brain and is a central focus for functional medicine treatment.
Sleep Problems and Circadian Disruption
Sleep Problems and Circadian Disruption
Insufficient or poor-quality sleep increases our risk of almost all health issues from immune imbalances, inflammation, metabolic diseases, brain and mood dysfunction. If your schedule or the demands of your chosen career mean you experience disrupted sleep and circadian rhythm issues, we can help. To help mitigate your risks, we provide you with proactive education, coaching, support, and cutting-edge technology to optimize your sleep.
Stress
Stress
The cumulative toll of stressful experiences builds over time, and research shows a clear connection to heart disease, cognitive disorders, and many other health conditions. We teach you simple and effective techniques to measure and decrease stress across many different spheres of life. With regular practice you will increasingly be able to shift your physiology on demand and function at your peak.
Fatigue
Fatigue
Living with ongoing fatigue and tiredness can feel very hard on the brain and body. We can assist you to recover to health and maintain an active lifestyle
Strength, Flexibility, and Mobility
Strength, Flexibility, and Mobility
Physical training and movement education must include strength training as well as exercises that are restorative and build resilience. To facilitate optimal physical performance, we place emphasis on core strengthening, mobility, and functional movement that enable you to perform at your best and protect your body from dangerous and costly injuries.
Brain Fog
Brain Fog
Brain fog isn’t necessarily a sign of old age or stress but can often be attributed to lifestyle choices. We assist in devising a suitable battle plan to improve memory and functional brain activity.
