Longevity Part 2: High-Tech Therapies — Breakthroughs or Just Buzz? [E072]

The Wellness Connection Show is back with part two of our deep dive into the “longevity revolution.” In the last episode, Dr. Bryan Joseph and Dr. Jason Hamed tackled simple, accessible practices like cold plunges, saunas, and breathwork. This week, they shift gears into the high-tech therapies that are getting buzz in the biohacking and wellness world.

From shockwave therapy and medical lasers to peptides and IV nutrient drips, the doctors break down what’s hype, what’s helpful, and how to know the difference. They also share their personal experiences using these tools, the science behind how they work, and—most importantly—why the foundations of health (nutrition, movement, mindset) always come first.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• Why the “pro athlete” mindset matters for everyday health and what that really means
• How shockwave therapy works, the conditions it can support, and even surprising uses like sexual health
• The science behind laser therapy (cold laser, low-level, and class IV) and its role in healing, reducing inflammation, and recovery
• Why peptides are called the “foreman of the body” and how they drive specific healing reactions
• The benefits of IV nutrient therapy (from Myers Cocktail to NAD+) and why sourcing quality matters
• The importance of asking: What’s your “why” for longevity? And how these therapies fit into the bigger picture of reducing stress and improving quality of life
