Individual treatment plans focus on healing your neural pathways — a process of rewiring your brain to address trauma in your past that’s affecting your physical and behavioral health.

Why is healing your neural pathways important?

Trauma in your past can increase your risk factors for developing chronic physical, mental, and behavioral disorders and diseases. Trauma, especially childhood trauma, can cause your brain and body to develop with certain neural pathway alterations. Addressing these deficiencies can help prevent mood disorders, addictions and chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and stroke.

Trauma can trigger intense feelings of anger or anxiety, and over time, it can become more difficult for you to stay in control of your emotions. For this reason, healing your neural pathways, can help you rewire your brain to improve its function.

As your neural pathways heal and brain function is optimized, you can enjoy a significant reduction in symptoms associated with behavioral and emotional issues that stem from past trauma or life events you've endured. 

Why is epigenetics important to behavioral health?

Epigenetics is a focus of medicine that involves passing down certain behaviors to later generations through genetics. Trauma especially may play a role in the development of behavioral disorders later in life.

The team at Preventative Medicine Inc. offers treatment strategies to reverse the impact that genetically related trauma and behavioral issues may have on your life. The provider focuses on empowering you to transform your mind, body, and spirit while maintaining long-term mental calmness.
