I get asked all the time, what does that mean? It is a wellness plan targeted at keeping you healthy, youthful, and full of vitality. I like to say it is prolonging the “hang-time” on your life. Feeling youthful without the weight problems and aches and pains of our thirties, fourties and fifties. No longer do you have to feel “over the hill” when you are over thirty. Come on in and it is my determined pledge to you that we will work on pushing that hill back. If you have attended one of my Wed sessions, you are one step closer to your wellness. In October, we will do free health lectures on Trouble Sleeping?, Breast Cancer Awareness, and Cleansing and Dexotifying Your System. Call the office for schedule and seating availability. When a patient comes for an anti-aging consult, it is a very extensive health history and planning session. I may order some diagnositic tests. We will make an individualized plan custom for you to start you on right away. Some things that we can safely correct are sleeping disorders, weight gain, hair loss, erectile dysfunction, loss of libido, low testosterone, stress, fine lines and wrinkles, and mood swings to name a few. It is a life changing experience. Another question that I am asked frequently is, does my insurance cover this? Some do, some do not. We promote healthy, safe alternatives such as bioidentical hormones, stress reduction techniques including yoga and tai chi, nutracuticals, and all natural weight loss. I also offer cosmecuticals in my office which include Botox (currently on special at $10 per unit), Juvederm and Restylane. I am currently in the process of credentialing with insurance plans now that the construction on the office is complete. If you are interested in more information, have questions on how I can help, or if you would like to make an appointment for today please call 352-224-3139. We also offer Botox parties and health party plans. We will be doing our monthly drawing some time today, so make sure you have opted in for our monthly drawing.

Sept 20, 2010
September 20th, 2010What a beautiful morning. I am preparing to head to clinic this morning in Spring Hill for pain management patients. We have openings on Mon, Tues and Wed am of this week. I am not going to have a Transitions class (weight loss) or free health seminar this Wed night, but please call Merrilee today if you want to schedule a one-to-one call. I would love to hear from you this week for what kind of topics you would like to see on October’s schedule for our anti-aging and wellness seminars.
Some of the topics we are looking at for October include fibromyalgia, detox, and bioidentical hormones.
ACHIEVING BALANCE
September 15th, 2010We started a sign up sheet at the office for our Doctor of Chinese Medicine as well as Tai Chi class. We would love to see you join us for our weekly classes, this week’s topic will be achieving hormonal balance. When your hormones are out of balance, you experience such side effects as hair loss, weight gain/loss, dry/brittle nails and hair, decreased libido and mood swings to name a few…these symptoms if left untreated can lead to serious health issues. Come learn how I can help you naturally treat these problems.
Every Wed we have a Transitions class at 6 pm in the office. I would love to have you join us, new patients are joining every week. This is a total transition of lifestyle, not just a diet. We are here to help support you every step of the way, you are not alone in this transformation.
We are building the website currently and would appreciate any testimonial you would like to share, if you are not sure how to post, call the office at 352-224-3139 and ask for Merrilee and she will take it by phone.
Make sure you opt in today for our drawing….. lucky winner will be announced at the beginning of the month and the October winner will receive a two week supply of Pentaxyl-Intensive Therapy For Fine Lines and Wrinkles. This product is great and synergizes wonderfully with Botox treatments (I still have my special running for $7.99 per unit). Pentaxyl is part of the most basic anti-aging platform that I recommend to all patients as well as our OPC-3 beauty blend (which nourishes the skin from inside out). Pentaxyl is great at maintaining healthy skin coloring as well as reducing the appearance of stretch marks, and helps stimulate collagen synthesis. We stock this product in the office for $75 per 4 fl oz tube (approximately 90 day supply . This product can be compared to Strivectin (seen on Home Shopping Network or Dillards).
We are headed to the office today and have opened up the afternoon for patients and have two openings left this afternoon….. call 352-224-3139 and Merrilee can get you scheduled.

Inflammation Is The Cause of Acute and Chronic Pain
August 2nd, 2010I read a great article this weekend at Nutritionsmart from www.TerryTalksNutrition.com and wanted to share some interesting excerpts with you from it. Quoting the wisdom of ages from 5000 years ago, this is a fantastic article on pain and inflammation as the root cause. Inflammation can affect organs, glands and other soft tissues of the body. Experts has estimated that 80-90% of diseases are caused either directly or indirectly by inflammation. By reducing inflammation, you initiate the healing process of the damage caused by the inflammation.
Damage such as that caused by inflammation following an injury when chemicals from the body are released into the blood which increase blood flow to the area. The increased blood flow and release of the chemicals attract white blood cells to the site of the inflammation. The increased number of cells and inflammatory substances can cause wearing down of cartilage (which cushions the end of the bones), irritation, and swelling of joint lining. It was about inhibiting COX-2 enzyme to control inflammation and possibly even cancer. Chronic aspirin users see a reduction in inflammation and cancers. This article looks at common herbs from India, curcumin and boswellia as the answer.
A common herb known as turmeric contains curcumin (identified in pharmacology as an anti-bacterial, antifungal, antiviral, anti-yeast, antiallergenic, anti-inflammatory, a powerful antioxidant, antitumor and anticancer) and may be in your kitchen right now. Curcumin can outperform steroids in their anti-inflammatory properties. It requires a reduction of 60 parts of turmeric to get one part of curcumin. Then 20 parts of curcumin are reduced to one very powerful and effective curcuminoid which is the most powerful and active ingredient for chronic and acute pain relief. Curcumin is thought to be an even better anti-inflammatory than cortisone (one of the most powerful steroids).
The most powerful formula combines curcumin, curcuminoids, boswellia, DLPA and ginger and is extremely effective in improving joint structure and function. Recently scientists in India isolated a subparticle of curcumin known as curcuminoid which is 100 times as potent as curcumin in reducing pain and inflammation. The article stated that researchers at M.D. Anderson Hospital in Houston, TX stated that curcumin in laboratory studies was as if not more effective than any cancer treatment drug they have seen from any pharmacutical company. The combination of DLPA and boswellia can enhance the anti-inflammatory properties of curcumin. DLPA is an amino acid found in all common proteins consumed on a daily basis. It has the ability to help us maintain higher levels of serotonin (the brains “feel good” hormone. DLPA can also lengthen the time released and retained in the bloodstream. This can be significant for mood elevation and depression. Terry, the author, has researched and collected over 2000 abstracts of various studies of curcumin. In one double-blind study he found, curcumin matched cortisone as a pain reliever and anti-inflammatory.
You can find this fantastic nutritional supplement, curcumin on my website www.doctorgorrell.com and while you are there please take the free nutraphysical for your individual and personalized recommendations.
