Most medical practices focus on treating illness. REVITA Anti-Aging Center focuses on keepingyou well. You won’t find surgery,injections, lasers, or other external treatmentsat this practice. What you will find is a holisticapproach to wellness, designed to leaveyou feeling years younger, as every memberof the REVITA staff works to get you healthyfrom the inside out.
Don Nicholas, CEO of REVITA, believesanother birthday shouldn’t be cause for malaise,no matter what some doctors might tellyou. “As you age, there’s a predictable progressionof symptoms,” he says. “You mayhave trouble with sleeping, weight gain,low energy, hot flashes, decreased sense ofwell-being, or simply not feeling 100 percent.Many of our patients tell us they’ve discussedthese symptoms with their doctors,only to be told that it’s all a part of aging. Butit doesn’t have to be that way.”Nicholas says a key to wellness is havinga specially trained physician examine eachpatient’s individual symptoms, using various lab tests to determine what may becausing age-related declines in health.
“Very few physicians specializein wellness medicine,” he explains.“Our medical director, Peter Fotinos,M.D., is a specialist in agemanagement medicine. There aremore than 100 variables that canaffect overall wellness, and Dr.Fotinos tests them all: key hormonesused to sustain vitality,thyroid levels, intradaycortisol, DHEA, estrogen,progesterone, testosterone,neurotransmitters, vitaminand mineral deficiencies,and much more. Hewants to make sure heunderstands what’struly going on withyou inside and out;then he can share possiblesolutions to help you regainyour vitality.
”Sometimes, bio-identical hormone replacementis prescribed to bring the body back intobalance. Nicholas’ personal experience withthe treatment is what prompted him to establishthe REVITA Anti-Aging Center. “I was apatient at a wellness facility and was treatedwith bio-identical hormone replacement,” hesays. “I hadn’t felt that good in 15 years. I wantedto help others find that same experience.”
Unlike synthetics, bio-identical hormoneshave the same structure as naturalhormones, all the way down to themolecular level. Top doctors in the fieldsay the treatment has been proven safe andeffective, with its benefits touted in OMagazine and on national television, includingthe MSNBC network, The Oprah WinfreyShow, Dr. Phil, The TODAY Show, 60 Minutes,and 20/20. As treatment regimens are implemented,REVITA patients typically experience higher energy, elevated frameof mind, better sleep, improved clarity ofthought, lower body fat, elimination of hotflashes, decreased moodiness, increased libido,and reduced anxiety. Once a patient’s bodychemistry is back in check, Nicholas says, ahealthier lifestyle naturally follows. “The nextthing you know, you’re exercising again, eatingbetter, feeling better, and looking better.
“At REVITA, we work to ensure bothyour short-term and long-term health,” headds. “We want you to live longer and feelgood doing it. That’s our goal.” TCW
