Anti-Aging Medicine

When you become a patient at Clinica Ideal Harwin, you become a patient of integrative and anti-aging medicine. How does this differ from conventional medicine? Well, if you think about it, the conventional way of practicing medicine (often referred to as western medicine) is simply symptom management. In conventional medicine, when people have a condition or are sick, they are often prescribed prescription drugs, or scheduled for surgery and/or other invasive procedures. Basically, illnesses and problems are treated after they have become critical or chronic.

Integrative medicine is anti-aging medicine. According to The National Center for Biotechnology Information, “Anti-aging medicine is an evolving branch of medical science and applied medicine. It treats the underlying causes of aging and aims at alleviating any age related ailment. Its goal is to extend the healthy lifespan of humans having youthful characteristics.” In a nutshell, anti-aging medicine is focused on getting to the root cause of symptoms to help detect, prevent and potentially reverse the onset of symptoms and age-related diseases.
