It's an approach that focuses on addressing the root causes of health issues rather than just treating symptoms. At AOSM Wellness, we understand that optimal performance and recovery are not just about fixing isolated problems; they're about enhancing the body's natural ability to heal and thrive.
In the realm of sports medicine, this means looking beyond the immediate injury to consider factors such as nutrition, metabolic health, hormone levels, stress levels, sleep quality, and environmental influences.
By taking a holistic view of your health, we can develop personalized treatment plans that not only promote healing but also empower you to achieve peak performance and prevent future injuries. We aim to maximize your energy, optimize your hormones, increase lean muscle, support weight loss and transform your vitality and strength.
Our team of musculoskeletal specialists, along with certified functional medicine practitioners, collaborates to provide comprehensive care that addresses your unique needs. Whether you're an elite athlete striving for peak performance or someone looking to stay active and pain-free, we're here to support you every step of the way.
From advanced diagnostic techniques to cutting-edge treatments and integrative therapies, we offer a full spectrum of services designed to optimize your musculoskeletal health and overall well-being.

Hormone Optimization Therapy
The goal of hormone optimization is to assess whether hormone levels in the body are outside their optimal threshold and, if so, to treat this condition by developing a plan to improve hormone function. If your body is simply not producing the hormones as it should, Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) could be an option.
Here is a brief overview of how hormone replacement therapy might impact certain aspects:
Weight Loss: Hormones play a role in metabolism, and imbalances can contribute to weight gain. Some people may experience weight loss because of HRT if hormonal imbalances were a contributing factor to their weight gain.
Lean Muscle Mass: Testosterone is a hormone that plays a crucial role in the development and maintenance of muscle mass. For individuals with low testosterone levels, HRT may help improve muscle mass and strength.
Beauty: In the context of musculoskeletal health, hormone therapy can influence aspects of beauty. During hormonal changes, there can be a decline in bone density and muscle mass. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may aid in maintaining muscle tone and bone health, indirectly impacting one's physical appearance. Hormones can also influence skin health and hair growth. HRT may improve skin health and help maintain a more youthful appearance.
Medical Weight Loss Management
Medical weight loss management involves a comprehensive, physician-supervised approach to weight reduction. This may consist of medication, personalized diet plans, exercise regimens, and behavioral counseling.
This structured and monitored approach aims to address underlying health issues, promote sustainable lifestyle changes, and achieve long-term weight loss success.
Peptide & Bioregulator Therapy
Peptide and bioregulators represent a class of naturally occurring short chains of amino acids that play a crucial role in regulating cellular function and promoting overall wellness. These bioactive peptides have garnered attention for their potential to stimulate and support various physiological processes, like musculoskeletal healing, supporting weight loss, increasing lean muscle mass, digestion and increasing energy and vigor.
Longevity/Anti-Aging
Our goal is to help increase your “health span” not just your life span. Living a long life is an amazing goal but staying active and healthy in advanced years is an accomplishment. Rather than waiting for illness to happen and reacting, we try to prepare and take preemptive action to treat your ongoing health.
We target personal and general risk factors, resulting in better health and graceful aging.
We believe that when it comes to increasing your “health span,” it is not just the years in your life, but the life in your years that we attempt to optimize.
DNA/Genetic Mapping
Biological age, a concept distinct from chronological age, reflects an individual's overall health and physiological state. Genetic and DNA testing play a pivotal role in understanding the factors influencing biological age.
By analyzing specific genetic markers and variations, we can gain insights into an individual's predisposition to certain health conditions and potential genetic influences on the musculoskeletal aging processes.
This information can guide personalized health interventions, allowing our team to recommend informed lifestyle choices, adopt preventive measures, and optimize their well-being based on a deeper understanding of their genetic makeup and potential biological age.
Integrating genetic and DNA testing into healthcare empowers individuals to take a proactive approach to managing their health and addressing potential genetic predispositions that may impact the aging process.
Sexual Health/Libido
Aging and poor health have a strong impact on the symptoms related to sexual wellbeing. Some examples are impotence, loss of vigor, menopause, and hot flashes.
By increasing muscle tone and monitoring hormone levels, we can help manage loss of libido (sex drive), hormonal irregularities affecting your sexual health and overall wellbeing.
Mental/Cognitive Optimization
Leveraging the synergistic benefits of peptides and nutraceuticals, we aim to enhance brain health, cognitive function, and mental wellbeing. Our personalized approach combines innovative peptides and carefully selected nutritional supplements to support mental clarity, focus, and overall cognitive performance, empowering individuals to unlock their full cognitive potential.
Regenerative Medicine
Regenerative medicine heralds an innovative approach to healthcare, with a focus on harnessing the body's innate ability to heal and revive damaged tissues.
Innovative therapies within this field, such as Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy, Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) Therapy, Exosome Therapy, Placental Matrix Therapy, and Amniotic fluid therapy exemplify innovative interventions.
PRP utilizes concentrated platelets from the patient's blood to stimulate tissue repair, while BMAC procedures harness the regenerative potential of bone marrow cells to promote healing.
Exosome Therapy leverages tiny vesicles to transfer crucial signals and biomolecules for cellular repair. Placental Matrix Therapy and Amniotic fluid therapy involve the application of placental tissues rich in growth factors to encourage restoration.
These regenerative approaches hold potential for addressing a range of medical conditions, offering a shift towards natural healing and tissue rejuvenation.
