Optimize Your Health

As part of our preventive healthcare model, Pravan includes a comprehensive annual physical with your membership. For ideal health optimization, it’s important to make sure you are up to date with your annual check-up, including recent labs. Our Pravan doctors have the tools to help you build a robust immune system, and are invested in helping you take your health to the next level.

Your Pravan membership ensures that you have a doctor who will spend as much time as needed with you (an average annual gets you two hours of quality time with your doctor) to make a proper assessment of your current health status. During a thorough review of your health history, along with any present issues or concerns, your doctor will be able to identify any condition(s) such us high blood pressure, diabetes or heart problems. Proper identification and management of these factors can help you avoid the risk of complications, which will also improve your outlook in the event you get infected.

Balance Your Diet

In addition to primary care, a Pravan membership includes access to our concierge nutritionist who will guide you in optimizing your diet. Since food is medicine, eating right is especially important during this outbreak. Research has shown that people who eat nutrient-rich diets have increased chances of fighting off infections.

Boost Your Immune System

There are a number of tools Pravan can provide you to boost your immune system:

  • IV Vitamin infusions can help give your body that extra push you need in times of crisis. 
  • Vitamin B12 shots are available at the clinic and can help support and strengthen your immune system.
  • Supplements can help balance your body’s needs and boost your immunity, which help to both prevent and fight off infections. The most popular ones we recommend are Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Omega 3, Zinc, Elderberry and Echinacea.
  • Stress is toxic and can have a major impact on a person’s immune system. A relaxing massage or neurofeedback therapy can help calm your mind and body, and provide much-needed relief for your system.
