ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
A large number of digital innovations are revolutionizing healthcare — and technology in medicine is here to stay. Numerous innovations and new solutions are already on the market and they have all improved healthcare drastically.
Multiple medical issues such as congestive heart failure, diabetes, medication noncompliance, even stressful isolation, are researched and solved with remarkable new technologies. I hand picked this technology to help me gather, organize, translate and communicate with my patients.
Technology is beneficial because......It is easy, comprehensive and motivating.
LivingMatrix
Functional Medicine Analysis
LivingMatrix is a powerful tool that enables you to easily document the unfolding phenomena that lead to ill health – a process that often occurs over many years, perhaps even a lifetime. It gives you and your practitioner the “Big Picture” so you can take the necessary steps to build back your health.
Documenting the actions, events, and environmental influences that have occurred in your life allows for the construction of meaning and a “Big Picture” view of how your body got to where it is today.
This opens up a conversation between you and your practitioner.
Each of us has a unique history that accumulates over time and holds the clues that can contribute significantly to creating a personalized plan to get you back to the health you want.
Heart Math
Biofeedback
Science has now shown us that the rhythm of our heart beat affects how we think and feel. HeartMath technology is an innovative approach to improving emotional wellbeing. Learn to change your heart rhythm pattern to create physiological coherence; a scientifically measurable state characterized by increased order and harmony in our mind, emotions and body.
HeartMath research has demonstrated that different patterns of heart activity (which accompany different emotional states) have distinct effects on cognitive and emotional function. During stress and negative emotions, when the heart rhythm pattern is erratic and disordered, the corresponding pattern of neural signals traveling from the heart to the brain inhibits higher cognitive functions.
BIA
Body Impedence Analysis
All body composition monitors use advanced Bioelectric Impedance Analysis (BIA) technology. When you stand on a monitor, a very low, safe electrical signal is sent from four metal electrodes through your feet to your legs and abdomen. In segmental models, the four hand-held electrodes will provide extra readings for each leg, arm and abdominal area.
The electrical signal passes quickly through water that is present in hydrated muscle tissue but meets resistance when it hits fat tissue. This resistance, known as impedance, is measured and input into scientifically validated equations to calculate body composition measurements. Depending on the monitor, body composition measurements are provided in under 20 seconds.
