Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis is a silent disease affecting over 28 million Americans and it is becoming increasingly common.  Among people 50 years of age and older, 55% are at significant risk for osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a serious condition that thins the bones and can result in tremendous pain with fractures.  Osteoporosis may significantly affect life expectancy and lead to decreasing quality of life.  Although there are many risk factors for osteoporosis as aging, low body weight and low sex hormones osteoporosis is a result of unhealthy and enactive living. Conventional medical treatment includes different classes of drugs; Bisphosphonates (Fosamax, Actonel and Boniva), Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (Evista) and Hormone Therapy drugs.  These drugs do not come without frequent side effects including serious problems in the stomach or esophagus like difficulty swallowing, inflammation of the esophagus, gastric ulcers, visual disturbances and osteonecrosis of the jaw.  Hormone therapy has been shown to be extremely dangerous because it increases risks of heart attacks, stroke, blood clots in the veins and breast cancer. 

The Maximized Living approach does not cover up the symptom but actually finds and treats the cause of the problem.  Most often this includes a scan of your spine and nervous system using our state of the art technology to check for diminished nerve supply.  Diminished nerve supplies in the spine can cause hormonal imbalances, improper uptake of vitamins, minerals and nutrients that could be contributing to your condition.  By restoring the proper nerve supply we allow the body to heal and function at 100%.  Our program also offers customized nutrition and detoxification programs to restore energy levels and fuel the body with the necessary nutrients.  Other aspects include our advanced workshops to teach you, "Surge training" exercise routines that increase your workload and decrease your workout time moving your body towards health and healing.
