Our PRP joint pain treatment offers hope for individuals suffering from debilitating joint pain caused by conditions such as osteoarthritis or sports injuries. By injecting concentrated platelets derived from the patient's own blood directly into the affected joint, we stimulate natural healing processes, reducing inflammation, promoting tissue repair, and alleviating pain. Our personalized approach aims to restore mobility and improve quality of life without the need for invasive surgery or prolonged medication.
Myofascial pain syndrome can cause persistent muscle pain and discomfort, limiting mobility and affecting daily activities. Our PRP myofascial pain treatment targets trigger points and areas of muscle tension with precision injections of platelet-rich plasma. By delivering growth factors and cytokines directly to the affected tissues, we promote tissue regeneration, reduce muscle spasms, and relieve pain. Our comprehensive approach focuses on addressing the root cause of myofascial pain, providing long-lasting relief and restoring optimal muscle function.
Chronic wounds, such as diabetic ulcers or non-healing surgical incisions, pose significant challenges and can lead to complications if left untreated. Our PRP wound healing therapy accelerates the body's natural healing process, facilitating tissue regeneration and promoting wound closure. By applying platelet-rich plasma directly to the wound site or through targeted injections, we enhance blood flow, stimulate collagen production, and support the formation of healthy new tissue. Our integrated approach to wound care aims to expedite healing, reduce the risk of infection, and improve overall outcomes for patients.
This evaluation involves a thorough assessment of metabolic processes within the body, including hormone levels, blood sugar regulation, lipid profiles, and energy metabolism. It aims to identify underlying imbalances that may contribute to conditions such as obesity, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and fatigue. By understanding individual metabolic patterns, personalized interventions can be recommended to optimize metabolic health and prevent chronic diseases.
Bioidentical hormones are derived from plant sources and are structurally identical to hormones naturally produced by the body. This treatment involves prescribing hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone in customized doses to address hormonal imbalances. This approach is often used to alleviate symptoms of menopause, perimenopause, andropause, and other hormone-related conditions, with the goal of restoring hormonal balance and improving overall well-being.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body, influencing various physiological processes. Peptide therapy involves the administration of specific peptides to target specific functions or systems within the body. These peptides may stimulate the production of growth hormone, enhance muscle growth and repair, improve cognitive function, regulate appetite, modulate immune response, and promote tissue healing. Peptide therapy is often used in anti-aging medicine, sports performance optimization, and the treatment of chronic diseases.
Intravenous (IV) infusion therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system for rapid absorption and maximum effectiveness. Immune-boosting IV therapy typically includes a combination of vitamins (such as vitamin C and vitamin D), minerals (such as zinc and selenium), and other nutrients (such as glutathione and amino acids) that support immune function and enhance overall health. This treatment is often used to prevent illness, speed up recovery from infections, reduce inflammation, and promote vitality.
This approach involves customizing vitamin and mineral supplementation regimens based on individual needs, health goals, and laboratory test results. By assessing nutrient levels and identifying deficiencies, healthcare providers can recommend targeted supplementation protocols to optimize health and well-being. Individualized supplementation may include vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids, and other micronutrients that support various bodily functions, suchs as immune function, energy production, detoxification, and cellular repair.
Micronutrient assessment involves testing for deficiencies or imbalances in essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants through blood tests or specialized laboratory analyses. By identifying micronutrient deficiencies, healthcare providers can develop personalized supplementation plans to address individual needs and promote optimal health. Micronutrient testing is often used in functional medicine, integrative medicine, and nutritional therapy to guide dietary recommendations and supplement prescriptions.
Leveraging Dr. Enad's board certification, we offer advanced diagnosis and treatment of complex lipid disorders (high cholesterol/triglycerides). Our focus is on comprehensive cardiovascular risk assessment, utilizing advanced testing, personalized lifestyle interventions (nutrition and exercise), and targeted pharmacological treatments to prevent heart disease.
