Personalised Medical Treatments Tailor-made for Individual Needs

FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE 

Functional medicine is a systems biology-based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Each symptom or differential diagnosis may be one of many contributing to an individual’s illness.

By addressing the root cause, rather than symptoms, we at OTHW become oriented to identifying the complexity of disease. They may find one condition has many different causes and, likewise, one cause may result in many different conditions. As a result, Functional Medicine treatment targets the specific manifestations of disease in each individual.

The doctor-patient relationship is of utmost importance together with the use of all appropriate therapeutic approaches, healthcare professionals and disciplines to achieve healing and optimal health.

Hormone Replacement Therapy

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), also known as natural hormone therapy, is the use of hormones that are identical on a molecular level with endogenous hormones in hormone replacement therapy. We can restore that balance by implementing a hormone restoration program, which may also include hormone supplementation.

“As people age, as they experience life conditions such as stress, pregnancy or menopause, their hormonal balance can be disrupted” says Dr. Wian Stander, our medical director and specialist in integrative and functional medicine at OTHW. We can restore that balance by implementing a hormone restoration program, which may also include hormone supplementation.

The patients feel better emotionally after hormone restoration, and they also may lower their risk of some of the health consequences of aging, such as:

R

Cognitive decline

R

Cardiovascular disease

R

Osteoporosis

R

Risk of bone fractures

Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is the inability to get and keep an erection firm enough for intercourse. Having erection trouble from time to time is not necessarily a cause for concern, but if ED is an ongoing problem, it may cause stress, relationship problems or affect male self-confidence.
Problems with erections may stem from:

Or being worn out

When addressing the cause of ED it is important that the underlying vascular integrity and functions are examined. Stem cell therapy has been indicated as treatment for ED as it repairs and replaces the damaged endothelial cells which form the intricate vascular tissue, therefore restoring its original integrity
