Muscle-centric medicine

Dr. Gabrielle Lyon practices something she refers to as "muscle-centric medicine." This approach views muscle as the largest organ in the body and the organ of longevity. Muscle-centric medicine emphasizes the importance of physical and mental strength, resilience, and individualized treatment based on the needs and goals of the patient, rather than just their occupation or status. This type of medicine is practiced with a variety of individuals, including high-performance athletes and military personnel, but also extends to everyday people like moms and executives. The aim is to enhance life quality and performance through strength and resilience 1.

Additionally, the concept includes the development of a muscle-centric medicine certification course for providers, created by Dr. Lyon in collaboration with a PhD from Princeton. This course is geared towards educating health professionals on the principles of muscle-centric medicine, ensuring they can integrate these approaches into their practice effectively 2.
