INTRODUCTION

Holistic medicine is a course o healing that engages ones whole being

mind, body, and spirit in the pursuit o optimal health, and is made

up o a broad range o therapies to treat not just specic illnesses when

they arise, but the person as a total entity. It adheres to the belie that

the physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional components that make us

human are interconnected and thereore the key to wellness is to maintain

a balance between these our elements.

Anti-aging treatments are therapies which attempt to slow down theaging process and allow patients to grow older more graceully, with animproved quality o lie in their advanced years, including higher energylevels, better sleep patterns, and an overall improvement in their generalwell-being. This is a relatively new and ast-growing clinical approach tohelping us in our ght with Father Time, and it employs a variety o scienticand medical technologies to detect, treat, and prevent age-related disordersand diseases.


3/14

Since weve always been taught to take care o ourselves and tostay healthy so we can live long lives, and since anti-agingtreatments aim to slow down or even stop some o the symptomsand signs o getting old, it shouldnt be surprising that there hasbeen a gradual integration o these two categories o healthcare. Asa philosophy, holistic medicines goal o ensuring we stay in balance,in shape, t and vital, lends itsel well to the numerous proactive andpreventative anti-aging treatments in practice today. Holistic care,oten regarded as more o an approach to, rather than a type o,medicine, has been incorporated into the way we treat aging.

IV Infusion (Intravenous Antioxidant)

Antioxidants can come in the orm o nutritionalsupplements, or can be consumed by eatingmany types o ruits and vegetables, and are acritical weapon in the ght against aging.Antioxidant inusion by IV is an eective andimmediate way to intake these vital moleculeswhich nourish cells, boost collagen levels, and

helps us orm elastin, all contributing to wrinklereduction and noticeably more vibrant and suppleskin. Intravenous therapies deliver nutrients rightto the bloodstream, which is valuable because itimproves potency by eliminating the potential orbreakdown in the digestive tract. Poor nutrition,stress, poor sleeping patterns, and our increasinglysedentary liestyles all contribute to prematureaging, which IV inusion can combat by ensuringwere receiving enough vitamins, minerals,enzymes, phytochemicals, and antioxidants.

Live-Cell Therapy

One o the major causes o aging, or perhaps one o the results, isthat the number o damaged cells in our bodies outnumbers thenew and healthy cells we produce. This creates imbalances thatmaniest themselves in things like wrinkled skin. Live cell therapycan severely limit the degeneration o cells and acilitate theproduction o new ones, critical in ghting and even preventingdisease. Treating ailments beore they start is a key tenet o holisticmedicine and is particularly benecial as we age, and demonstratesa proactive alternative to the traditional reactive way o prescribingdrugs ater weve been stricken by symptoms. Some o the thingslive cell therapy can help prevent or delay are diseases like Alzheimersand Parkinsons, caused by the degeneration o brain cells, and highblood pressure, diabetes, and nephrosis, caused by the degenerationo cells in our internal organs. It can also do wonders or your skinas new cells help it tighten and rm and reduce ne lines and wrinkles.

Liver Detox

The liver is a vital organ with a wide range ounctions like toxin removal, protein synthesis,producing bio-chemicals needed or digestion,and vitamin storage. As we are continuouslybombarded by contaminants rom the ood weconsume (in the orm o preservatives, pesticides,articial ingredients, and ungus), the air we inhale,substances our skin absorbs, and even things ourown body produces, the liver is busy working all

the time. It can thereore sustain damage rom allthe toxins it processes, but luckily, it is resilient andcan repair itsel better than any other organ. Liverdetoxication therapy is one way o ensuring thatit stays in good order and can continue its eortsto strengthen the immune system, ght pathogens,combat allergy and fu symptoms, and reduce theormation o plaque in our blood vessels. Aidingthe livers ability to continue keeping our insidesclean with a detox program is the kind o holisticmaintenance that helps keep us young.

Vitamin C Infusion

When taken orally, Vitamin C is absorbedthrough the intestines, but much can belost in the GI tract and ultimately onlyabout 15-30% o the vitamin is received.In higher doses, since it is passing directlythrough the gut, it can cause stomachdiscomort and diarrhea. For someailments, higher concentrations oVitamin C than can be eciently andcomortably delivered by oral intake haveshown to be benecial. As a result,Vitamin C inusions have caught on as away to deliver more vitamins directly tothe bodys tissues. At the appropriatelevels, Vitamin C has shown antihistamine,antitoxin, antibiotic, and antioxidantproperties, and is also known or its

cancer-ghting and anti-aging properties.Key benets include increases in HDLcholesterol (the good kind), decreases inLDL cholesterol, decreased bloodpressure, improved cardiovascularhealth, and immune system boosts.
