FEEL ENERGIZED AGAIN

You’ve been feeling tired day after day and you see your love handles growing even as you make an effort to eat well and exercise. What’s going on? The cause might be the chemical “messengers” in your body — your hormones. Imbalances in your hormones can lead to many symptoms, including fatigue, muscle aches, and even worse. If left untreated, imbalances can put you at an increased risk for disease. While some changes in hormones are normal during menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause, a chronic imbalance can leave you feeling out of whack every day. Particularly during menopause, imbalances can wreak havoc on your body and put you at a higher risk for cancer, stroke, and other diseases.

If we do find an imbalance, we can recommend our bioTE bioidentical hormone pellet replacement therapy to get your body back into balance.

Schedule your appointment for hormone testing with Dr. Sanchez today and get on the road to feeling great again!

Fortunately, we can fix these imbalances! By testing your saliva, we can quickly and conveniently determine if a hormone imbalance is to blame.

Saliva testing is a convenient, inexpensive, and above all, accurate means of testing steroid hormones. Scientific studies have shown a strong correlation between steroid hormone levels in saliva and the amount of hormone in the blood that is active, or “bioavailable.” This is the fraction of total hormone that is free to enter the target tissues in the brain, uterus, skin, and breasts, and it helps us to determine if your numbers are at a healthy level.

Hoping to shave off those extra holiday pounds or keep up with your New Year’s resolution? Look no further than this easy winter detox salad!

Do you look forward to Oprah’s “Favorite Things” list as much as we do? It’s so exciting to get her take on everything from books to beauty products. You know it’s going to be good if Oprah puts her stamp of approval on it. That’s why we were so excited when we looked at her “Favorite Things” list to see that two of Oprah’s favorite beauty products are in our shop! Both are made by the trusted Cailyn Cosmetic brand. The company uses high-quality materials and cutting-edge technology to bring you products that make getting ready easier. Wow! Brush Featuring an angled handle, the pointed shape of the Wow! Brush allows for easy, accurate coverage. A built-in stand means this brush stays upright for easier storage. You’ll understand why it’s called the Wow! O! Circle Brush When friends ask, decide if you want to reveal this brush as your “secret weapon behind flawless skin.” The O! Circle Brush has an ergonomic grip, making it as comfortable as it is precise. It’s also curved to a 35-degree angle to cover the entire surface area of your face. For tucking away and for travel, the storage cap is an additional feature that keeps this brush clean. A FEW OF OPRAH’S FAVORITE THINGS
