Our Process

Initial Testing

We begin with a broad health check, including lab work and a review of your family history and lifestyle. By spotting early warning signs of cognitive issues, we can address them before they get worse.

Advanced Testing

If our initial tests show any signs of concern, we dive deeper. We use more detailed lab work and other exams to find the root causes of cognitive decline, from hidden infections to vitamin shortages.

Personalized Plan

Once we understand your test results, our team works together to develop a custom program just for you. We address your overall health and lifestyle to target issues that may affect memory.

Data-Based Monitoring

After you begin your plan, we keep a close eye on your progress. We schedule checkups and repeat tests to track changes and adapt your plan, helping you stay one step ahead of cognitive decline.

Team-Based Path to Cognitive Wellness

We follow the Bredesen Protocol to give you a full-circle plan for cognitive health. Each expert brings a different piece of the puzzle:

  • Functional Medicine: Dr. Semby uncovers root causes of cognitive decline using in-depth testing and a personalized, science-based approach.
  • Oral Health and Sleep: Dr. Rappaport, a dentist and Diplomate of Dental Sleep Medicine, addresses inflammation in the mouth and sleep issues that can affect brain health, ensuring both your dental care and rest habits support overall wellness.
  • Health Coaching: Michael Sanders guides you in making lasting lifestyle changes, helping you follow your treatment plan every step of the way

By working closely together, we create a plan that respects your unique needs—helping you maintain clear thinking and a strong sense of self.

Dementia Genetics

Family history or genetics of dementia: If you have a parent or sibling with dementia, your chances for declive are higher. We can help you determine the level of your risk and what you need to do to reduce the chances of developing dementia.

Toxins, chronic infections, stress

Burnout or chronic stress is correlated with cognitive decline. We work with you to protect your brain from cognitive decline.

Women and Menopause

Women and Menopause: Women are 2x as likely to be diagnosed with dementia. Research is showing that hormonal changes that occur with menopause and perimenopause make women more susceptible to this condition.

It might appear overwhelming, but dementia is preventable if you take consistent action today. We take the overwhelm out of it by using a team care approach with functional medicine doctors, health coaches, wearable technology and access to many resources.

Take control now

Changes in the brain start to occur twenty to thirty years before receiving a diagnosis of age-related cognitive decline or dementia. If you are in your 40s-60s, now is the time to assess your brain health and cognition. It is important to also review your overall health to find your points of vulnerability and work on them to minimize your risk for dementia and cognitive decline.
