1. What is your professional background and how does it support your contribution to Expand Labs’ mission?
I am a specialist physician in Geriatrics and Gerontology, with additional certifications in Homeopathy and Acupuncture. I graduated from the Carol Davila University of Medicine and Pharmacy in Bucharest in 2003. I’ve always been passionate about exploring and integrating various methods of holistic balance into my medical practice.
Gerontology studies the processes that unfold over time in all their dimensions—physical, cognitive, psycho-emotional, and social. While I have a deep interest in many areas, such as cardiology, neuroscience, the microbiome, epigenetics, phytotherapy, homeopathy, acupuncture, and personal development through various techniques, I’ve always viewed the human being as a whole. A functional and psycho-emotional approach allows me to better understand the root causes of imbalances—what we commonly refer to as disease. Holistic medicine enables a personalized approach to therapy, supporting the restoration of physical, mental, and spiritual harmony.
2. Why are you passionate about developing solutions for long-term health and longevity?
Aging is increasingly viewed as a disease. Longevity offers a complex perspective, centered first and foremost on quality of life. Raising awareness about the impact of lifestyle factors, our inner processes, and our environment leads to personal responsibility. It’s essential that we understand how we can become the architects of our own lives.
3. What personal health practices have significantly improved your quality of life?
• Movement and personal development through conscious movement — expressing myself through the body helps me stay balanced. From mindful walking to stretching, Qigong, Bothmer exercises, dance (whether slow or intense), inner motion expressed outward or even inner stillness—there are endless ways to explore and reconnect.
• Conscious breathing and relaxation techniques, including meditation.
• Natural remedies — I experiment with personalized plant-based extracts and homeopathic medicines, some administered via acupuncture point injections. I also practice hot-cold contrast showers.
