Custom Evaluations

This Energy Evaluation is highly recommended before participating in any Beneveda treatment or program. The Energy Evaluation allows Dr. Lobe to fully understand your health and energy before making any recommendations. This means that Dr. Lobe will focus on your health and body as a whole instead of focusing on just your specific symptom(s). This is important because symptoms can often arise from causes of which you may not be aware..

Dr. Lobe is an expert in many healing disciplines. He is a world renowned surgeon who has written hundreds of publications on health. However, more than just a Western medical doctor, he also specializes in Eastern approaches such as acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine, giving him a unique perspective as he advises you on the best treatment combination from both Western and Eastern schools of thought.

The Energy Evaluation with Dr. Lobe is a great option for patients with a specific health concern or for those interested in being proactive about their health. In true Beneveda fashion, the Energy Evaluation will be custom tailored to fit your individual needs.

1. Let Nature Heal
2. Identify and Treat Causes
3. Do No Harm
4. Educate Patients
5. Treat the Whole Person
6. Prevent Illness

Nutrition is the relationship of food to the health of the human body. The Nutrition Consultation works to energize and balance your body by supplying your body with the essential nutrients that are lacking in most American diets. The Beneveda nutrition specialist will teach you how to create a healthy diet that speaks specifically to your lifestyle. You'll receive one-on-one guidance to help you achieve your health and wellness goals.

The nutrition specialist will also recommend a purification program for you. We are exposed to external toxins every day. While your body is designed to rid itself of these toxins naturally, it can often become overburdened. Purification offers your body external support to expel these toxins and restore health and vitality.

For patients concerned about aging, we begin with a comprehensive consultation that includes taking a careful history and examination. We combine conventional allopathic medicine with naturopathy, and study you energetically to be able to understand how your body processes can function optimally. We focus on your cardiovascular system because you are only as young as your arteries. We can determine your biological age (blood testing for telomere length) and based on the results, promote longevity. We will evaluate your nutrition, toxins, exercise program and pertinent laboratory data. Armed with this information, we will recommend a state-of-the-art, comprehensive program that includes a discussion of lifestyle, nutrition, fitness and the use of proper supplements, energy-based treatments and more.

In the first part of this detailed, two hour consultation, the Beneveda movement specialist will examine your posture through a Postural Analysis test. Your posture provides useful insight about the natural state of your muscle tissues. Postural Analysis is crucial in determining which areas of the body are under more strain than others, and which muscle groups are causing this strain. Using Postural Analysis, our movement specialist is able to assess and repair strained muscle tissues in order maximize the efficiency of your body. His method involves a series of stretches and gentle exercises. These exercises relax overly contracted muscles and strengthen weaker muscles to restore proper balance to your body.

The second part of the Movement Consultation involves the use of the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) and corrective exercises. The FMS is made up of seven tests which examine fundamental movements - the foundation for human motion. Our movement specialist will analyze the results of the FMS to reveal your movement limitations. These types of limitations lead to poor efficiency, potential for injury, energy depletion and decreased daily performance. Together with our movement specialist, you will successfully develop corrective exercise programs based on your individual movement patterns.

Once all the information is in our hands we can intelligently prescribe a personalized program designed around your specific complaints and goals.
