Hudson Health is growing. In addition to our pain management, preventive wellness, and interventional mental health branches, we have launched a longevity-focused practice to help you optimize your health and increase your lifespan.
Our newly renovated space features state-of-the-art treatments that minimize your risk of developing chronic conditions and maximize your overall vitality. Longevity Center treatments include:
DEXA Scan
Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry
This body composition scan measures your bone density, muscle:fat ratio, and overall body composition.
EBOO
Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation
EBOO is an advanced form of ozone therapy that can be used as part of a treatment protocol for inflammatory conditions and autoimmune disorders. This treatment helps to detoxify your system by stimulating oxygen metabolism and activating the immune system to eliminate viruses, fungi, and bacteria.
VO2 Max
Maximize your training efficiency by measuring how much oxygen your body absorbs and uses during exercise.
Peptide Therapy
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that influence major biological processes. Our peptide therapy program harnesses the power of peptides to stimulate the release of essential hormones that regulate biological processes, like digestion, immunity, and tissue repair.
Hyperbaric Chamber*
Hyperbaric Oxygen is known to increase the supply of oxygen to the body’s tissues and increases blood’s capacity to carry oxygen. This therapy is also said to improve the performance of white blood cells as they fight off threats to the immune system.
*Coming soon
A DEXA, short for dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, is a full body composition scan that measures lean mass, fat mass, and bone density. This type of scan works by emitting low-dose x-rays that absorb bone tissue and soft tissue to compile an accurate profile of your body’s compositions and density.
DEXA scan measurements
Patients use DEXA body composition scan to assess their risk of osteoporosis, but it’s also a valuable weight management tool. DEXA’s low-dose x-rays distinguish between different types of mass in your body: mineral mass (bones), fat, and muscle mass. By mapping out your different mass types, DEXA scans give you a comprehensive picture of your body’s composition below the scan.
- Body fat%
- Lean muscle mass
- Muscle symmetry
- Visceral fat
- Fat Mass Index (fat in relation to your height)
- Android to Gynoid ratio ( Also known as the apple to pear shape ratio. A breakdown of where fat is stored in your body. Android fat refers to fat around your belly and gynoid fat refers to fat around your hips.)
Knowing exactly where your body stores excess fat tissue can help you tailor your fitness regimen to target those areas. Whether you’re trying to mitigate chronic pain or overhauling your nutrition to improve your lifestyle, your DEXA scan can serve as a baseline for your progress as you adapt new changes to reduce your body fat and increase your lean muscle mass.
