We take a functional approach with Hormones. We have a doctor developed & doctor supervised protocol. The foundation lies in the objective TESTING! We don't guess...we TEST! We will DIG to find the "root cause" and work to provide a NATURAL & LASTING solution.
Hormone imbalances are often tied together into what is called the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal-thyroid (HPA) axis. This is because the different hormone systems are connected to one another and operate in a hierarchical fashion. We often find symptoms such as insomnia, fatigue, brain fog, abnormal menstrual periods, hair loss, cold intolerance, skin changes and weight gain. Impaired libido, loss of genital sensitivity, and erectile difficulties can also be seen.
Brain neurotransmitters, gut-brain connection, blood sugar regulation and hormones are all interconnected.
Neurotransmitter imbalances have been tied to a number of neurological and psychiatric diseases including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, depression, anxiety and schizophrenia. In addition, the modifiable lifestyle factors of sleep, movement, nutrition, stress, and relationships should be evaluated for areas of need and corrective measures taken.
Nutrition and nutraceuticals can be helpful when there are hormonal imbalances. The complex discussion of methylation should be addressed as well. Important amino acids for neurotransmitter production include phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan. Finally, cholesterol is required for the production of cortisol, aldosterone (involved in fluid and electrolyte balance).
Our Gold Standard of time-tested results does advanced testing for sensitivities, deficiencies, and toxicities in determining the root cause of the imbalances and suggesting our customized and personalized nutraceutical protocol.
Dr. Peter Amato has been revolutionizing today’s Holistic Healthcare Model. As a pioneer in Integrative Medicine, Dr. Amato has been healing patients for over 25 years from acute and chronic conditions. His enlightened and forward-thinking approach to wellness addresses not only symptoms of disease, but more importantly, gets at the root cause to allow for enduring wellness.
Dr. Amato’s approach requires an appreciation for the connection between mind, body, and spirit - and how all three play a key role in your overall health. This is the exact point where, and why, traditional healthcare approaches repeatedly fall short.
As patients become more and more dissatisfied with the mainstream healthcare system that fails them time and again they search for answers and new truths. And the truth is, he has answers!
Very simple. Dr. Amato will ask you some questions, do a thorough health history, and determine if you're a case he can accept. If he thinks he can help he'll give you that option. If he doesn't think he can help, he'll work to find somebody who can.
ABSOLUTELY! Our protocols are extremely safe and there is nothing like it. There are very few doctors that will do objective functional testing and work towards finding the ROOT CAUSE of the health challenge. Most simply give a med / chemical cover up.
Unfortunately no insurance company pays for weight loss. However, if you're MOTIVATED we'll work with you. Our protocols are very affordable and keep in mind that we've never turned anybody away because of finances.
We have a practice in Northeast Pennsylvania but also offer 100% virtual services. The beautiful thing about functional medicine and our functional approach is that it can be done from ANYWHERE! After our initial discovery call (to determine if our protocol makes sense for you) we'll provide you with test kits so TOGETHER we can customize a safe, natural, & highly effective protocol based on YOUR individual needs.
We will provide recommendations based on where you're nutrient deficient / depleted. Again, this is based on the testing that is performed. We'll give you supplement recommendations as well as give you food recommendations to eat more of that are abundant in the nutrients where you're depleted.
YES! Even though our functional protocols are done virtually, we provide 24/7 email support. If you have a question / obstacle to work through we'll provide you the support & guidance you need.
