Men’s Health

According to the CDC, women are 100% more likely to visit the doctor for annual examinations and preventive services than men. Here at Kingdom Health, half of our patients are men (usually thanks to some caring yet persistent women)! Nonetheless, kudos to you awesome guys!!
Thank you for understanding that your body was created intelligently. And, that admitting when there is an interference, taking the steps to seek care, and then taking action allows you to live fuller so you can get back to doing the things you love.

There is a silent health crisis in America…it’s that fact that, on average, American men live sicker and die younger than American women.” Dr. David Gremillion Men’s Health Network

The main reasons men come to our office is due to symptoms of hormonal imbalance such as:

  • hair loss
  • muscle mass loss
  • loss of bone mass, otherwise known as osteoporosis
  • difficulty concentrating
  • hot flashes
  • erectile dysfunction
  • cognitive decline
  • depression
  • fatigue
  • memory loss

We also see men due to hypertension, cardiovascular health, inflammation, gut issues, and food sensitivities – because, like so many, prescription medication wasn’t fixing anything.

Men tend to wait until its the last resort until seeking help – DON’T WAIT! There are better options out there!

Here at Kingdom Health, we do not guess – we test. Our providers start care with in-depth functional testing – not your conventional lab work.  We test based on your individual health history, your symptoms, and your lifestyle. And, the test we do are full panel tests so that we can uncover what is going on physiologically and biochemically.

Comprehensive testing provides our patients with information and knowledge about the function of their body that they typically do not receive from their conventional doctor visits. These tests are performed to get to the root cause of the symptoms or disease.
In addition to helping resolve health issues, we also have testing to optimize health. Perhaps you are feeling good but you want to feel and function even better. We have testing that analyzes the factors of aging and then allows us to modify these factors. The goal is to Function Optimally and to Thrive, not to merely ‘not be sick’.

HORMONE OPTIMIZATION plays a huge role in not only women’s health but men’s health as well! Testing helps us uncover root of these symptoms so we can work with you to create a plan that will get your body back to optimal health!

Better energy, better libido, better recovery, better gut health, better moods! These are all things are male patients walk out of our office saying.

Don’t wait until it’s too late to start LIVING life!
