Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter explains holistic orthopedics, which pairs joint treatments like PRP and stem-cell injections with functional medicine. The approach includes hormone replacement, supervised weight loss, gut testing, and sleep analysis to reduce inflammation and restore energy.
The peak of wellness really is a balance, a whole body wellness. If I'm going to be a surgeon, I want to improve healing for my patients. What is holistic orthopedics? It's a new and innovative approach to orthopedic care. Our goal is to improve our patients pain using focused joint treatments using orthobiologic therapies like prp, bone marrow aspirate under stem cell injections, combined with full body wellness. We utilize a functional medicine approach combining bioidentical replacement therapies and options for medically supervised weight loss. But also we dig very deeply into gut health, hormonal balance, and overall inflammatory state. We work to balance hormones and habits using functional medicine providers to reduce stress and excess weight and inflammation. We do serocortisol testing, we do sleep testing, we do gut health, we do food sensitivity testing. We go pretty deep into the functional medicine realm. Then we work to restore energy and vitality.
