The Lifestyle, Functional & Anti-Aging Approach
AREAS OF EXPERTISE
Evaluate. Test. Optimize.
| PERSONALIZED FUNCTIONAL CONSULTATION |
This medical approach seeks to identify the underlying causes of diseases. By treating the root cause of an illness, it is possible to halt its progression and, sometimes, even reverse it.
It is focused on finding the "root cause" of problems through a team collaboration (doctor-patient relationship) for a comprehensive and holistic solution.
Through lifestyle change programs and protocols, functional nutrition, intestinal microbiome rebalancing, stress management, sleep harmonization, and advanced supplementation, a personalized treatment plan will be designed with the aim of restoring your body’s natural balance.
A functional view of the patient as a whole, rather than as a collection of symptoms or an isolated disease.
| ANTI-AGING CONSULTATION|
Promotes a preventive medicine designed to enhance and optimize longevity and life expectancy for everyone, both men and women, and at all ages.
This anti-aging approach is dedicated to slowing down or reversing aging, with several complementary pillars. In Portugal, this is a recent medical perspective, but it has existed in the United States for over 20 years. It should not be confused with Aesthetic Medicine.
Among the parameters assessed in an Anti-aging Consultation, key elements include the evaluation of clinical symptoms, biochemical, metabolic, inflammatory laboratory tests, and hormonal profiles.
The approach of this integrated Medicine is to extend people's lifespan with vitality and energy, and delay the inflammatory process that causes cellular aging.
A medical approach focused on the prevention and treatment of common health issues in women at each life stage, taking into account the body, mind, and challenges within the context of their life.
Through functional nutrition, supplementation, lifestyle changes, and hormonal optimization.
A functional approach helps balance the body and regulate menstrual cycles, fertility, pregnancy preparation and postpartum, as well as the transition to menopause.
|WOMEN'S HEALTH |
The most common issues in consultation are painful, irregular, or heavy periods, headaches and premenstrual tension, amenorrhea (absence of menstruation), endometriosis, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), infertility, perimenopause, and menopause.
| MEN'S HEALTH |
Hormonal imbalance is something that also affects men as they age, primarily due to the decline in testosterone levels.
Throughout life, men go through various hormonal fluctuations, and testing hormone levels allows us to detect and correct imbalances linked to many symptoms related to mood, weight management, sexual desire, muscle mass, and energy levels.
Among the most common issues addressed:
-
Muscle loss
Fatigue and low energy levels -
Decreased confidence and initiative
-
Loss of sexual desire

Erectile dysfunction
