IV Vitamin Therapy
IV Vitamin and Nutrient Infusions can provide what's needed for your body far more effectively than taking pills. With vitamin mineral nutrient infusions we are able to administer higher dosages with better absorption and faster delivery to the cells throughout your body.
IV Vitamin and Nutrient Therapy can be a valuable treatment for health concerns such as:
Alzheimer's dementia, Anxiety, Asthma, Arthritis, Autoimmune Illness, Cancer, Celiac Disease, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Constipation, Depression, Diabetes, Headaches, Hypertention, Mulitple Sclerosis, Neuropathy, Parkinson's disease, Shingles, and more.
Contact your local Preventive Medicine office (E-mail or Phone) for a consultation to evaluate any nutritional deficiencies that you may have and how an IV Vitamin Therapy can help you.
Bioidentical Hormone Therapy
Essentially bioidentical hormone replacement allows women to produce helpful hormones that are biologically the same structure as what their body would otherwise produce. The difference is, these bioidentical hormones are produced in a lab and created from plant chemicals.
Bioidentical hormone therapy is continuing to replace past hormone solutions. Women are seeing improvements, especially for menopausal relief. If you want a helpful, natural approach to hormone replacement, contact Preventive Medicine to arrange a consultation.
EECP Therapy
The benefits of External Counterpulsation Therapy (EECP) Therapy are unprecedented. Both have been used in hundreds of clinical trials as a safe and effective treatment for patients who are faced with a variety of medical conditions. EECP provides significant improvement to the entire health system by restoring the delivery of oxygenated blood to all parts of the body. EECP treatments are low risk, easy to tolerate, and provide immense improvement to patients who complete a full course of therapy
EECP Therapy acts as an external “cardiac assist device” helping the heart perform more efficiently with minimal effort or stress during treatment. This process helps deliver oxygen-rich blood to all vital organs inside the body, especially the heart. Overtime, this treatment has been responsible for creating a more efficient vascular system in countless patients, by improving the mechanical operation of the heart so it can deliver more cardiac output (stronger heart) with less effort.
The most common benefit associated with EECP Therapy is increased exercise tolerance. But it also decreases symptoms such as, chest pain, shortness or breath, and chronic fatigue. So if you are suffering from lack of energy or breathing complications, please contact our medical staff so we can help improve your quality of life!
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is used to cure illness by enhancing the body’s natural healing process. This is achieved through hyperbaric oxygen inhalation. HBOT allows oxygen to permeate throughout all of the body’s fluids, which ultimately helps treat areas where circulation is blocked.
Common symptoms that require hyperbaric treatment are:
- Air or Gas Embolism
- Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
- Diabetic and Selected Wounds
- Exceptional Blood Loss (Anemia)
- Gas Gangrene
- Necrotizing Soft Tissue Infection
- Osteoradionecrosis and Radiation Tissue Damage
- Skin Grafts and (Compromised) Flaps
- Thermal Burns
We have seen this treatment work successfully for individuals with a variety of conditions. If you are interested in hyperbaric oxygen treatment, contact one of our local offices to set up an appointment.

What can Ozone Therapy do for you?
Peptide Therapy
Most of you are probably wondering what a peptide is actually. Simply, peptides are a specific sequence of amino acids which are linked together by a covalent chemical bond, which is referred to as a peptide bond. Peptides are naturally found in the human body and are used by the body to signal important processes such as telling the pituitary gland to secrete more human growth hormone (hGH). You might think peptides are some new discovery, but patients in the U.S.A. have been aware for decades of a peptide which regulates metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins and is associated with diabetes... insulin. Insulin has been thoroughly researched because special interests noticed it could be marketed to treat an increasing and on-going epidemic in our country, diabetes. Why have other peptides been left out of mainstream research? Optimization and anti-aging 
therapies have been neglected due to the fact that they prevent and sometimes even cure chronic diseases such as diabetes, high cholesterol, and cardiac-associated diseases. Thankfully, a steady push has been seen for optimization therapies, such as peptide treatments, by small but dedicated research groups and clinicians, like Dr. Burkich. We are excited to offer our friends and patients these peptide therapies, so they can experience cutting-edge treatments which athletes and a fortunate few have experienced.
Peptide therapy has been utilized over the past three decades to treat the following:
- Increasing hGH levels (CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin, Tesamorelin) and other hormones like testosterone (Kisspeptin-10)
- Increasing recovery time for internal injuries (inflammation, ligament to bone injury, cartilage regeneration, etc.) (BPC-157)
- Protecting the brain from the development of Alzheimer's Disease (Cerebrolysin, Dihexia)
- Recovery from stroke and increase memory retention (Semax)
- Increase cognitive function and stabilize mood (Semax, Selank)
- Even to stimulate your own skin pigment to darken for a tan (Melanotan II) - this one also increases a man's libido!
- Many more peptides are available for our customers and new peptides are being developed constantly
The rest of the world has been taking advantage of this anti-aging therapy. Only in the past decade have patients in the U.S.A. been exposed to this alternative treatment to optimize their body and mind. Many people have been forced to find peptides on the 
black market from research companies that produce peptides for non-human use. Here at Preventive Medicine we believe in giving our patients every advantage with the latest and most effective anti-aging treatments, which is why our peptides come directly from a state-of-the-art compounding pharmacy. A protein synthesizer produces the specific peptide and is tested for efficacy and purity, then it is reconstituted in a stable buffer solution for reliable stability, unlike the other peptides you can buy from sketchy internet pharmacies.
Our peptide therapy can stand alone and help you lose adipose fat tissue (stomach fat), gain lean muscle, increase deep sleep and mental clarity, and improve skin elasticity. The peptides are also a great addition to our hormone replacement therapy patients.

Anti-Aging
Health changes are one part of growing older. But for some, losing weight is more difficult and for others energy levels wane, sex drive decreases, and quality of sleep diminishes. What you may not realize is that a lot of these developments can be attributed to hormone deficiencies, which can be corrected. From blood work to saliva testing,
Preventive Medicine examines the causes behind the symptoms and assesses what may be contributing to your health concerns. After your lab results are completed, you meet with a medical doctor or nurse practitioner to discuss your medical history, assess your condition, and create a treatment plan designed to improve your everyday functions.
This anti-aging treatment has reversed worsening conditions for countless patients. Those who have undergone hormone replacement therapy express their renewed energy, mental clarity, increased sex drive, and successful weight loss results.
