Depression is aging and killing us prematurely and as our population grows older, the need for a better understanding of the disease and methods to counter it has grown more urgent.
Recognizing the relative inconsistencies and growing concern for a lifetime reliance on antidepressants to treat depression, acclaimed Chicago chiropractor, Dr. James Stoxen DC, has developed natural preventative and treatment strategies.
First, he states that he advises that you should never attempt to stop taking antidepressants without the support of a doctor or psychiatrist, and never stop taking them suddenly or try to reduce your dosage on your own. These more natural preventive and interventional treatments are to be used as adjunct and as a preventive.
Dr. Stoxen states there is a mountain of scientific evidence that identifies inflammation as one of the key culprits in the spread of chronic pain and diseases of aging and in a presentation to the 2012 4th American Academy in Anti-Aging And Regenerative Medicine and 2nd Congress On Anti-Aging and Aesthetic Medicine He will also summarize a wall of evidence that inflammation is both caused by and is strongly linked to a possible cause of depression. The reduction of inflammation is certainly an opportunity for novel interventions for select patients with depression.
Anti-aging medicine aims to maximize the human potential for physical, social and mental wellness towards optimizing the human aging process. It is a wellness oriented model that focuses on clinical advanced preventive medicine. Evidence-based and well documented by peer-reviewed journals. Its diagnostic and treatment practices are scientifically supported. An increasing number of physicians and practitioners are now embracing the anti-aging paradigm, believing in its ability to transform healthcare for the better.
Dr. James Stoxen DC at The 4th A4M Thailand Congress on Anti-Aging and Aesthetic Medicine

Seeing how lifestyle diseases are now the largest cause of mortality globally and preventable by lifestyle choices, wellness living is essential.
The theme this year uniquely converge the billion dollars anti-aging and trillion dollars wellness industry into a single platform. Though seemingly divergent in nature, the two industries are now naturally converging-medicine and wellness-governed by the same aim of longevity and vitality.
