Athletes’ Healthcare Requires Different Parameters
Most athletes have heard it before: "Your labs look normal." But for an athlete "normal" ranges do not correlate with optimized function. (i.e.A Ferritin level that is "clinically normal" might still be 40 points too low for an endurance athlete to transport oxygen efficiently.
Functional medicine shifts the focus from population normals to personalized optimization. We analyze the complex individuals situation and needs create a customized Athlete’s Blueprint.
Athletic Physiology (Hormesis)
Athlete’s develop physiological adaptations from the demands they place on their bodies. Many of the adaptations turn out to be performance enhancing. Top notch endurance athletes have higher respiratory capacity, cardiac output, and increased metabolic activity. Many of the therapies available to improve our overall Functional Health rely on the principle of progressively loading stress and allowing the body to recover. This concept is known as hormesis.
Hormetic stress is the good kind of stress our bodies use to build resilience and becomes our competitive advantage. We help you find the balance in your body so you can stand up to tough workouts and become an elite performer.
