CARDIOMETABOLIC ASSESSMENT

As men, we were meant to achieve, create, and protect. It’s in our DNA.

But in order to have the ability to do so, we MUST have the courage to address impediments and obstacles wherever we find them. Chief among these are degenerative health conditions that could be developing within you.

Our cardiometabolic assessment technology serves as a state-of-the-art diagnostic instrument that scans through more than 30 clinical biomarkers and enables us to identify cardiovascular and metabolic conditions.

Think of the cardiometabolic assessment as your very own high-tech Sherlock Holmes that has the ability to investigate and uncover hidden diseases that are developing within your body, issues that can become serious conditions if not addressed in the early stages. And for those who are already aware of certain conditions, this test often reveals other health problems that can easily slip under the radar.

Keep in mind that timing is EVERYTHING.

If you can catch the development of a disease early enough, you can potentially defeat it BEFORE it can grow into a medical monster that could cost you undue hardship and possibly take you to the point of no return. You owe it to yourself and your family to know the TRUE state of your health before it’s too late.

The assessment itself only takes about 15 minutes and encompasses a thorough evaluation of the following critical factors:

EXTERNAL COUNTERPULSATION (ECP)

Our most transformative life-extending technology is—without any doubt—external counterpulsation (ECP). ECP is an FDA-approved non-invasive treatment for certain cardiovascular conditions such as chronic stable angina (CSA), peripheral artery disease (PAD), and left ventricular dysfunction (LVD).

NUMEROUS HEALTH BENEFITS: ECP is equally effective for other conditions such as cognitive degeneration, chronic kidney disease (CKD), chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), peripheral neuropathy, erectile dysfunction (ED), dyspnea (shortness of breath), chronic systemic inflammation, and long COVID. Moreover, athletes use ECP for improved endurance performance and accelerated recovery. See CARDIOGEN-X, ARTERIOGEN-X, NEUROPATH-X, NEUROGEN-X, and COVID-RX.

We challenge ANYONE to find better technology that can do more for their health and longevity than this. Simply put, ECP should be regarded as the fountain of youth, because it has the potential to provide patients with YEARS of cherished life with their families that they could never replace.

WHAT ARE ECP SESSIONS LIKE?

ECP is a very simple and comfortable procedure. While lying on a comfortable padded table, electrocardiogram (ECG / EKG) patches are placed on your chest and inflatable cuffs are placed around your lower body. You’ll also have a sensor placed on your finger for continuous assessment of your oxygen and pressure levels.

Similar to blood pressure cuffs, the cuffs inflate with air. However, rather than a continuous flow, the cuffs will deflate and repeat the inflation-deflation cycle throughout your session. This inflation-deflation process is synced with your heartbeat.

Here’s how it works: The cuffs inflate as soon as your heart rests, which increases the blood supply to the arteries that deliver blood to your heart. The cuffs then rapidly deflate to support your heart in its pumping. This repeats until the session ends.

Usually, each session lasts for one hour. During this time, patients typically watch TV, read a book, use their cell phone, listen to music, or take a nap.

TREATMENT ADVANTAGES

One of the significant advantages of ECP is its ability to provide benefits comparable to physical exercise without placing undue stress on the heart. This is particularly beneficial for individuals who may not be able to engage in traditional exercise due to health issues or other limitations.

Moreover, the non-invasive nature of ECP makes it an attractive option for many patients, as it eliminates the need for surgery and the associated risks and recovery time. Instead, patients can undergo ECP treatments in a clinical setting, typically over several weeks, where they can experience gradual improvements in their health and symptoms.

HOW ECP CHANGES THE BODY

The gentle pressure ECP induces on blood vessels of the lower limbs causes the development of new vessels to branch out across the body. In the case of blocked arteries, these collateral vascular networks allow alternative pathways for increased blood flow, oxygen, and the delivery of nutrients where they are needed most.

One of the organs that greatly benefits from the increased blood flow is the heart. And when the heart receives the blood flow it requires, the entire body operates with greater ease.

Of course, every organ of the body benefits from ECP. Where there is more blood flow, there is enhanced function. This is true of the heart, the kidneys, the brain, the lungs, erectile tissue, and every other organ.

ECP also leads to some very long-lasting changes within the body. As any runner, swimmer, or other endurance athlete can attest, it only takes a few weeks of time away from cardiovascular exercise to undo years of training. As the saying goes, if you don’t use it, you lose it.

But ECP is different. When one undergoes a full multi-session course, ECP provides much longer effects. In fact, 88% of patients who undergo external counterpulsation treatment continue to experience the benefits up to an incredible FIVE years later!

You could rightfully consider external counterpulsation to be the ultimate longevity technology to take your health and performance to the next level, in some ways, even better than conventional exercise. Of course, when combined with exercise, the results are nothing less than life-changing. And potentially life-saving.

SCIENTIFICALLY VERIFIED OUTCOMES

External counterpulsation acts like exercise but with multiple advantages that cannot be replicated by conventional exercise alone. The network of collateral vessels it produces reaches every organ of the body.

The positive outcomes this technology leads to are statistically undeniable:

  • 72% of heart patients with severe angina who have completed ECP treatments reported mild angina to none at all.
  • 81% of heart patients who completed ECP reported no congestive heart failure two years later.
  • Patients who have undergone ECP treatment have experienced increases in arterial blood flow to carotid, renal, and hepatic vessels by nearly 25%.
  • The use of ECP has led to improvements of coronary artery blood flow by as much as 40%.
  • ECP treatments have allowed patients to experience a 12% increase in left ventricular (LV) stroke volume.
  • ECP has been shown to increase penile arterial blood flow by 200%.
  • 80% of male patients who have undergone ECP have reported erection satisfaction.
  • Patients suffering from cognitive impairment who underwent ECP treatments increased their cerebral blood flow (CBF) by 2.5–15.8%.
  • 5% of stroke patients who completed an entire course of ECP experienced positive outcomes.
  • Shortness of breath improved in 63% of long-COVID patients who completed a course of ECP.
  • 88% of Long-COVID patients who completed ECP treatments overcame their chronic fatigue.
  • Chest pain significantly improved in 97% of long-COVID sufferers who underwent ECP treatments.
  • All or nearly all ECP patients who were previously unable to work due to long COVID were able to return to work by the end of their treatments.

EXTRACORPOREAL SHOCKWAVE THERAPY (ESWT)

Low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy (LI-ESWT) is a low-risk, non-invasive treatment that utilizes potent acoustic pulses to target areas of concern. The purpose of shockwave treatments is to penetrate through fascia, break down scar tissue, and trigger growth factors and stem cells to activate regeneration within injured, scarred, or dysfunctional tissue. ESWT also builds collateral vessels to increase circulation and blood flow to where they’re needed most.

ERECTILE RESTORATION: For men with erectile dysfunction (ED), that’s exactly what is need in most cases (although, there are other causes behind ED). Unlike the blue pill, which merely grants a temporary nitric oxide (NO) boost, low-intensity shockwave therapy addresses the problem head on (no pun intended) and leads to REAL regeneration and restoration. Done correctly, there are no side effects, which is not the case for ED drugs. See PERFORM-X.

MUSCULOSKELETAL REGENERATION: We have another more advanced version of ESWT technology we maintain in our clinic that is highly effective for the treatment of musculoskeletal problems such as tendinopathy, ligament degeneration, myofascial adhesions, fractures, and chronic pain. See ORTHOGEN-X.

WOUND REGENERATION: Our LI-ESWT machine was designed to treat chronic wounds such as ulcers. Such problems are especially common with diabetic patients. Shockwave technology has prevented countless patients from losing their toes, fingers, or limbs from gangrene and infections. See REGEN-X.

NERVE & VESSEL HEALTH: Shockwave therapy can treat vascular and nerve pathologies such as peripheral neuropathy and peripheral artery disease (PAD). Left untreated, these limb conditions can be very painful and debilitating. In some cases, amputations become a necessity for survival. See NEUROPATH-X and ARTERIOGEN-X.

HAIR RESTORATION: Believe it or not, ESWT is also useful for sparking hair growth. It only makes sense since the scalp possesses tissues that contain many of the same regenerative components that are lying dormant. See RESTORE-X.

Without a doubt, our LI-ESWT technologies are among our most impactful treatment options. If you are searching for long-term regenerative solutions, shockwave therapy is one of the best methods you will find.

WHAT ARE SHOCKWAVE SESSIONS LIKE?

Now, the idea of having shockwave and erectile tissue in the same discussion may sound like it would be the LAST thing any reasonable man would want to even think about. Fortunately, the procedure is quite tolerable. Certainly not shocking in the traditional sense! The same holds true of the use of LI-ESWT for any application such as tennis elbow, back pain, or peripheral neuropathy.

For ED, we offer a portable device that can be purchased and taken home. So, no clinic visitations beyond the initial appointment and follow-up exam are necessary. Pretty convenient.

Moreover, the procedure itself only takes about 17 minutes and is designed to be used only a couple of times per week for a month, followed by a one-month break, for a total of four cycles for most users. Too easy.

Some men report erectile improvement as soon as two to three weeks, but most users experience results in about 60 to 90 days, with ongoing improvement over time. The blue pill may work faster, but again, these drugs do not restore erectile function like shockwave therapy can.

Our in-house shockwave machine is used for all other applications, such as joint pain, muscle aches, and peripheral artery disease. Like our ED device, there is minimal discomfort. Some would say that it even feels quite enjoyable, like a deep-tissue massage.

The timeline for regenerative results for these non-ED issues all depends on the type of dysfunction that is being addressed and the extent of damage. As an example, joint pain could be addressed in as little as a few weeks if the damage is minimal, such as a mild sprain or some tight fascia. Whereas a tear may take several months of treatment (complete tears require surgery, outside our scope of treatment).

TREATMENT ADVANTAGES

Our portable take-home ED model provides considerable benefit for men who prioritize privacy and prefer not to address their concerns in a clinical environment. Its discreet capability and short-and-sweet treatment protocol make this the ideal treatment of choice.

Our in-house non-ED model, while not as convenient as the take-home version, still provides a fast treatment experience that generally takes only a few minutes. The pain relief and healing that it provides makes the visit well worth it.

Either way, low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy is one of the most powerful treatments that can be used to finally address those nagging pains, stubborn injuries, chronic wounds, and limb numbness that plague millions of people. Simply put, it works. And that is the best treatment advantage anyone could want.

SCIENTIFICALLY VERIFIED OUTCOMES

Shockwave ED therapy outcomes vary depending on the type of device used, the protocol employed, the severity of the dysfunction, the way the treatment is administered, the level of user compliance, and other pre-existing conditions. Therefore, results vary. However, the studies that have surfaced thus far are very promising:

BRAINWAVE ENTRAINMENT

For those who are seeking ways to reduce their stress levels, we provide a unique solution known as brainwave entrainment (also known as neuro-entrainment), the synchronization of brainwaves that establish enhanced neural connections and neuroplasticity. The result is a significant decrease in stress, increased mental resilience, and enhanced cognitive performance.

This pioneering brain-enhancement device we use is from one of our partner companies, BRAINTAP TECHNOLOGIES. This unique technology combines light frequencies, guided meditation, auriculotherapy (auditory stimulation), beats and tones, and 10-cycle holographic music for an integrative and fully immersive experience. See NEUROGEN-X.

WHAT ARE BRAINWAVE-ENTRAINMENT SESSIONS LIKE?

BRAINTAP is very user-friendly and employs the use of a headset that covers the eyes and ears, preventing external distractions. As the session begins, you will hear calming sounds and experience soothing rhythmic light pulses through your closed eyes. Together, these activate the neuro-entrainment effect. People have described the experience as “a sensation of floating or a feeling of profound calmness.”

TREATMENT ADVANTAGES

One of the advantages of BRAINTAP is that it is a relatively low-cost technology that does not require repeated visits to any clinic. It is portable and can be taken just about anywhere you want. While we would never recommend using this technology while operating heavy machinery or critical tasks, it can be used in between activities, either as a method of mental preparation, sleep induction, or a means to reduce stress.

Another advantage of this type of brainwave entrainment technology is that results are shockingly fast. As little as a single treatment is enough to experience a tremendous drop in anxiety.

SCIENTIFICALLY VERIFIED OUTCOMES

In addition to showing a 38.5% improvement on the stress index scale and a 27.3% improvement on overall neurological markers, BRAINTAP has been verified by a dozen studies to improve the following outcomes:

PLATELET-RICH PLASMA (PRP)

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment is a biotechnology we use primarily for the regeneration of chronic musculoskeletal injuries. PRP involves concentrating platelets from an individual’s own blood that are injected where they are needed most to spark the healing process.

MUSCULOSKELETAL REGENERATION: PRP injections are primarily utilized for soft-tissue injuries such as minor rotator cuff and Achilles tendon strains, with applications for other musculoskeletal issues such as chronic back pain and tennis or golfer’s elbow. Some of the world’s top athletes, competitive fighters, and special operations forces (SOFs) have relied upon PRP to keep them in the game, so it works. See ORTHOGEN-X.

HAIR RESTORATION: Despite what your physician or barber may have insisted on the impossibility of restoring your lost mane without transplantation, we can tell you with absolute certainty that they are wrong. Sure, if you are one of those rare guys who is nearly completely bald, you’re out of luck (sorry). But, if you’ve got something left to work with and only have a receding line, some thinning hair, and perhaps a small bald spot, PRP may be the solution you’ve always wanted. See RESTORE-X.

WHAT IS PLASMA AND WHAT ARE PLATELETS?

To give you a clearer understanding of what PRP is and how it could help you, it’s necessary to first have a basic understanding of what plasma and platelets are (for anyone who does not already know). Plasma serves as the fluid component of whole blood, primarily comprised of water and proteins. It facilitates the circulation of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets throughout the body. Platelets, also known as thrombocytes, are blood cells essential for clotting and contribute to vital growth and healing functions.

WHAT ARE PRP SESSIONS LIKE?

PRP injections are prepared by centrifuging one to several tubes of an individual’s blood to isolate and concentrate platelets, typically increasing their normal count by two to eight times. The concentrated platelets are then mixed with a blood plasma liquid base and injected directly into the injured area, sometimes guided by ultrasound imaging for targeting precision.

The injections are nearly painless but sometimes mildly uncomfortable, certainly no more so than any other shot. Of course, the sensitivity of the procedure will be determined by the location of the injury. Most clients require three to four treatments spaced about a month apart.

TREATMENT ADVANTAGES

PRP induces an inflammatory response crucial for localized healing. This stands in direct opposition to the outdated paradigm of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which emerging evidence has shown do not actually facilitate regeneration (quite the opposite).

Ibuprofen or other NSAIDs will NOT heal you. Their primary function is pain management—NOT healing. NSAIDs shut down the very inflammation needed to trigger the healing effect. This prevents growth factors and other vital nutrients from reaching the injured tissue. That’s about as useful as shutting off your vehicle’s oil light instead of providing the fluids it needs.

While chronic, systemic inflammation, caused from such things like smoking, chronic stress, processed foods, and disease, impairs healing, localized short-term musculoskeletal inflammation is a vital component of tissue regeneration. And PRP is among the best treatments for this purpose.

If you have had a chronic injury (like runner’s knee or back pain) for some years now, you may be skeptical that inflammation is what you need. But in the case of chronic injuries like these, the inflammatory effect has long come and gone.

Many chronic injuries are no longer in an inflamed state. Instead, they have become a degenerative condition where healing is virtually absent. What is needed at this point is something to jump-start some localized inflammation. And that’s where PRP comes in.

But PRP does more than trigger the inflammatory effect. The activated platelets in PRP release growth factors that stimulate the production of reparative cells, thereby significantly augmenting the body’s natural healing process.

If you’ve been dealing with stubborn injuries that have limited your movements, strength, and overall capacity to live life to the fullest, or if you’ve been looking to bring new life to your scalp and hairline, it’s time to try something new, something that gets the job done. And that something . . . is within you.

WHEN IS PRP NOT EFFECTIVE?

PRP is not a cure-all. If you have complete tendon or ligament separations that require surgery, PRP will not resolve the problem. The same could be said of any significant tear (that is nearly separated).

And, as previously mentioned, if you are among the unfortunate few who are nearly completely bald, PRP won’t be enough. The resulting scattered patches of regrown hair would probably end up looking far worse than just staying bald.

Furthermore, if you are constantly exposing yourself to chronic, systemic inflammation (the bad kind) from such things as junk food, smoking, excess stress, sleep deprivation, and so forth, then the healing effects of PRP will be significantly impaired. Certain diseases may also interfere with PRP’s regenerative results.

Having said all that, PRP is nevertheless one of the most effective treatments for tissue repair. And for the highly ambitious, the effects of PRP are magnified when combined with other regenerative treatments such as low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy (LI-ESWT).
