Are you worried about your risk factors for developing dementia? Or do you know someone who already has Alzheimer’s? Proactive Wellness Centers (703-822-5003) can help with their new Bredesen-certified treatment plan.
Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia can be devastating for both the sufferer and their loved ones. We all like to believe that we won’t ever have to experience dementia or know someone who does, but if that sad reality has found its way to you, not all hope is lost.
With new research emerging every single day, doctors are discovering more ways to slow, stabilize, and even reverse cognitive decline, and Proactive Wellness Centers is proud to be one of them. Having finished her Bredesen certification, lead doctor and medical director Dr. Lynese L. Lawson is now qualified to offer treatment according to the Bredesen Protocol, an approach that has been shown to reduce symptoms in dementia patients.

Unfortunately, dementia and related illnesses are more common than we think. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as many as 5.8 million Americans were living with Alzheimer’s disease in 2020, and this number is projected to triple by 2060. Further statistics provided by the World Health Organization show that around 47 million people suffer from some form of dementia worldwide.
The risk of developing neurodegenerative diseases increases with age, and while some forgetfulness is a normal part of getting older, severe cognitive decline can cause serious disruptions to daily life, says Dr. Lawson. Although there is currently no cure for any form of dementia, Dr. Lawson and her team can slow and stabilize the progression of the disease by combining the methods outlined in the Bredesen Protocol with Proactive Wellness Centers’ holistic approach to medicine.
Because genetics, history of head trauma, mitochondrial damage, and toxin exposure have been identified as potential additional factors that lead to cognitive decline, Proactive Wellness Centers can help you take preventative measures through detoxification, proper gut health, and other lifestyle changes. The clinic also has effective methods to alleviate Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome, or CIRS, an illness that has been shown to reduce cognitive function if left untreated. They say that prevention is the best cure, and while you can’t stop yourself from getting older, you can mitigate your other risk factors.
But even if prevention is no longer an option for you or your loved ones, there’s no need to worry. As a Bredesen-certified doctor, Dr. Lawson can also provide a treatment plan that follows the Reversal of Cognitive Decline program denoted in the Bredesen Protocol, which has been clinically proven to reverse the symptoms of dementia. They don’t make these claims lightly, and Proactive Wellness Centers wouldn’t be offering this treatment if it didn’t actually work.
Being a functional medicine approach, this program involves therapeutic diets, targeted nutrients that improve brain function, and extensive lifestyle interventions, and Dr. Lawson will adjust the treatment plan based on comprehensive lab assessments of your overall health. She already knows a ton about functional medicine since it’s the basis of her practice, so you can rest assured that you’re in the best hands.
The introduction of the newest treatment plan reflects Proactive Wellness Centers’ devotion to helping Americans achieve healthier living through individualistic, holistic care. The practice remains one of the leading figures in functional and integrative medicine in Northern Virginia and surrounding areas.
Only a Bredesen-certified doctor like Dr. Lawson can offer you this kind of specialized, clinically proven care for cognitive decline. So if you’re worried about the onset of dementia in either yourself or someone you know, Proactive Wellness Centers is one of the best-equipped places to help you get through the difficult times ahead.
Most importantly, you don’t have to go through this alone - not when Proactive Wellness Centers will be here for you every step of the way.
