Sailing Through Surgery

Getting ready for surgery—and healing from it—requires more than just showing up and waiting for stitches to dissolve. Whether it's a routine procedure or something more complex, your body needs support before and after surgery to recover efficiently and lower the risk of complications. Fortunately, there are some very effective steps you can take to help your system heal faster and more completely.

Before Surgery: Build a Strong Foundation

Start by focusing on your nutrition. A diet rich in lean protein, leafy greens, and antioxidant-packed fruits supports tissue repair and immune readiness. Supplements like vitamin C, zinc, and magnesium can give your system an extra edge in healing and inflammation control.

Some individuals incorporate peptides like BPC-157 or TB-500 under medical supervision.

These regenerative compounds may help prime tissue for recovery and have shown promise in promoting cellular repair, although more human studies are ongoing. Always consult your healthcare provider before using peptides, especially before surgery.

Also, it may be counterintuitive, but starting a series of Hperbaric Oxygen "dives" BEFORE the surgery can drastically reduce healing time and discomfort, as well as SCARRING. By delivering concentrated oxygen in a pressurized chamber, HBOT helps boost oxygen supply to tissues, promoting faster repair and reducing inflammation. It's particularly useful in procedures with slower wound healing or a higher infection risk.We often think of hyperbaric oxygen treatment for healing a wound (surgical OR accidental) - but in using it before surgery it actually activates the healing cascades to continue to work for days and weeks. So as a tool for your upcoming surgery, consider doing 6-8 sessions BEFORE and 2-3 sessions after, if you are able. Another advantage of this is that many times you are not very keen to go out for appointments just after surgery and want to stay home and rest.

Make sure to stay hydrated, avoid alcohol and tobacco, and review any medications or supplements with your physician to minimize drug interactions or bleeding risks.

In the evolving landscape of healthcare, integrative and functional medicine has emerged as a compelling approach that emphasizes a holistic and patient-centered model of care. The insurance based allopathic system generally helps to manage symptoms or problems once they have already occurred. People are now referring to it as “Sick Care” instead of Health Care. Integrative and Functional Medicine which is by and large a self pay or concierge model, offers a comprehensive strategy for achieving optimal well-being. This platform allows us to ask “Why did you get sick?” And further, what can we do to change this, so that you can become well from the inside out (and not have recurrence of the problem). My number one priority is your health and vitality. It’s why I practice preventative care and integrative medicine . I’m proactive and do all I can to keep you well.
