In a world where medicine progresses quickly, immediate solutions are sought to health problems that require time and understanding. Dr. Andrea Rodríguez, a specialist in neurology and geriatrics, proposes a different look: to return humanity to medicine and promote healthy aging.
Andrea is the founder of Santa Teresa Health Space, an office that offers comprehensive care for older people, based on person -centered medicine. His approach not only seeks to treat diseases, but also improve the quality of life of his patients. “Many times it is thought that aging is synonymous with deterioration, but science shows us otherwise. We can encourage brain and functional health with adequate habits and attention that contemplates the history, context and needs of each person,” says Dr. Rodríguez.
As a member of the Argentine Society of Gerontology and Geriatrics, he was proposed to lead a advice of Neuro-Geriatrics. Its objective is to strengthen the intersection between neurology and geriatrics, two key disciplines in approaching aging.
Myths about aging and advice for a full life
One of the main challenges in your work is to disassemble myths about old age. “There is a belief that old age inevitably means loss of capacities and dependence. However, many older people are fully autonomous and active. The key is to accompany the changes of aging with strategies that favor functionality and well -being,” explains the specialist.
Dr. Rodríguez highlights five fundamental pillars for healthy aging:
– Regular physical activity, since the movement directly impacts the health of the brain.
– Cognitive challenges, such as reading or learning new skills.
– Socialization, maintaining emotional ties is crucial for emotional well -being.
– Balanced feed, rich in essential nutrients.
– A life purpose, something that motivates to continue growing and enjoying every day.
In addition to his work in the office, Rodríguez discloses these concepts in social networks through @amomisneuronas. Its objective is that more and more people understand that aging is not the end of something, but a stage full of opportunities.
