Cancer Care Program
Choosing your cancer treatment is an important decision. When considering chemotherapy, radiation or an alternative approach to your treatment, know your options. In our comprehensive cancer care program, we not only treat your cancer, but provide nutrition therapy and a detoxification program to build your immune system and mind/body therapies to keep you on a low stress positive mental path. For those wanting a gentler more compassionate treatment or those who are having difficulties with side effects, Dr. Kotsansis introduced Insulin Potentiation Targeted Low Dose Therapy (IPTLDSM) into our comprehensive cancer care program to give patients an alternative choice to therapy which targets and kills cancer cells and does not target healthy cells.
Cancer AfterCare
The Cancer Treatment Centers of America have designated Dr. Kotsanis as one of their treatment aftercare physicians. AfterCare is a wellness based program designed to keep you at optimal health after a treatment phase or cancer remission. Each cancer aftercare program is custom designed for you in collaboration with Dr. Kotsanis based on whether you are in complete remission, have a controlled tumor growth, how agressive the cancer type was and other personal factors. With the integration of conventional (traditional) medicine with complementary alternative medicine (CAM, functional, alternative and nutritional) the comprehensive cancer care approach is vital to your treatment during and after, for optimal health.
Autism
Dr Kotsanis’ expertise and knowledge of autism rose from clinical experience. His interest in ASD advocacy prompted him to become a founding member of Defeat Autism Now! (DAN). To improve behavior and learning in an autistic child, treatment must be approached from different angles. A personalized program is designed from metabolic testing. The foundation of the treatment at the Kotsanis Institute is correcting digestive function, correcting nutrition and diet, detoxification of metals and boosting the immune system through allergy therapy and proper nutrition. Our treatments address multiple factors that are know to have an impact of learning and behavior.
Hormone Imbalances
Hormone imbalances are very common. When we mention hormones, women come first to mind with peri-menopause and menopause symptoms of heavy bleeding, irregular periods, hot flashes, low sex drive, irritability etc. Hormones are effected by environmental pollutants, toxins and medications. Hormone imbalances also occur in men and especially children. Some additional symptoms of hormone imbalance are depression, anxiety, fatigue, hair loss, irritability, memory loss, mood swings, premature aging, hypoglycemia, weight gain and the list goes on. The Kotsanis Institute looks at each patient’s history and circumstances to identify the proper treatment and also specializes in treating female hormonal imbalance using bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. (BHRT).
Allergies
The Kotsanis Institute specialized in Low Dose Antigen Therapy for allergies (such as pollen, mold, chemicals, insect bites, etc) and food intolerances. Low Dose Antigen Therapy (LDA) is a way of treating allergies, chemical reactions and food intolerances by using minute doses of the allergen in combination with an enzyme. LDA immunotherapy is also used to treat other immune related conditions.
Digestive Disorders
In medical school, doctors are taught to treat symptoms. Dr. Kotsanis views the whole body as one collaborative system and looks for the root causes of disease. The digestive system plays a prominent role in the whole function of your body and immune system. Your gastrointestinal tract is regenerative and conditions such as incomplete digestion and leaky gut are treatable with proper nutrition and diet supplementation. Your body systems are dependent on your digestive function, don’t just treat the symptoms - treat the cause at the Kotsanis Institute.
Chronic Fatigue
Dr Kotsanis takes it seriously when someone tells him that they are tired all the time. As a medical doctor, he understands the symptoms of Chronic Fatigue and the frustration that patients feel with this condition. Because he complements traditional medicine with functional medicine and nutrition, he addresses the whole body and looks for a root cause. He will test for function, address malfunctioning organs and hormones, adjust nutrition, look for infections, cleanse the body and work to build up the immune system. With Chronic Fatigue, you want a doctor that will think outside the box and Dr. Kotsanis will do it!
Chronic Conditions
At the Kotsanis Institute, our opinion is that Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia and other Chronic Infections are lifestyle illnesses brought on by the post industrial revolution change in dietary habits, chemical exposures and stress levels to name a few. Because the body ecology breaks down with Chronic Conditions, Dr. Kotsanis will combine an alternative functional medicine approach to complement his medical knowledge to address the whole body looking for imbalances, dysfunctions and the cause of symptoms.
Nutritional Assessment
Subtle diet changes can make a profound impact on the way you feel. Nutritional Assessments are encouraged on a regular basis regardless of age, to insure that your body is getting the necessary fuel needed. Nutrition plays an integral part in your health, wellness and anti-aging process.
Weight Management
Losing weight is not just about reducing calories. Losing weight is about making a lifestyle change and we are experts at helping you do it. Our certified nutritionist will design a plan and properly educate you on how to achieve success. Being healthy is the ultimate goal but looking better is a bonus.
Detoxification
Our bodies have been exposed to many toxins such as food additives, processed foods, pesticides, chemicals, medications, pollution and a variety of other substances. With detoxification, our bodies can reset for optimal health, well being and anti-aging. The Kotsanis Institute has more than 25 years of experience and we can individualize the right detox plan for you.
Learning Disorders
The Kotsanis Institute addresses multiple factors known to impact ADD, ADHD and other learning disorders. We have seen significant learning improvements by correcting digestive function, diet, detoxification of metals and toxins, and boosting the immune system through allergy therapy and nutrition supplements.
