Hormones are chemical messengers that control and coordinate the functions of all tissues and organs. Each hormone is secreted from a specific gland and distributed throughout the body to act on tissues at various sites. Hormones impact your body at the cellular level, and your overall health depends to a large degree on your body's ability to maintain healthy cells. Diet and exercise influence hormones and your body's ability to balance them naturally. This is true for women and men of all ages.

Hormone imbalances have been linked to everything from weight gain around the middle and mood swings to hormone-dependent degenerative conditions such as breast cancer and osteoporosis. Our specially trained health care practitioners use a spectrum of lab tests to zero in on specific disruptions of hormone metabolism. After a thorough evaluation of test results, most patients’ imbalances can be corrected through supplementation, dietary, and lifestyle changes, or a combination of lifestyle modifications and medications.
