About Carla Whorton
Carla Whorton, NP, located in Scottsdale, AZ, specializes in anti-aging and regenerative medicine, with a focus on hormone optimization, lipedema care, and personalized weight management. She works with clients across all life stages, from puberty to post-menopause, supporting women through hormonal shifts and related health challenges. Carla's approach involves advanced functional lab testing to assess hormone levels, detox pathways, and inflammatory markers, creating personalized plans to rebalance hormones, improve detoxification, reduce inflammation, and restore insulin sensitivity. She emphasizes that genes are not destiny and focuses on optimizing them through epigenetics. Carla's personal journey, including her experience with breast cancer and her daughter's struggles with endometriosis and lipedema, has fueled her passion for helping others navigate hormone-driven diseases. She offers insights into bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, GLP-1 medications, and the complexities of lipedema. Her approach combines stress reduction, circadian rhythm optimization, BHRT, metabolic repair, and epigenetic insight to address the root causes of aging and disease. For women with lipedema, Carla offers a comprehensive approach that addresses the underlying metabolic, hormonal, and inflammatory imbalances driving the condition. She provides treatments personalized to each individual, supporting estrogen metabolism through nutrition, supplementation, and detox, balancing hormones with bioidentical hormone therapy, and reducing inflammation with compression, movement, and manual lymphatic drainage. Carla also utilizes tools like GLP-1 receptor agonists to aid in insulin sensitivity and weight loss. Carla's practice is rooted in the belief that aging is inevitable, but suffering is optional. She aims to empower women to live with strength, clarity, and peace in a body that works for them, not against them. She emphasizes the importance of listening to the body and optimizing lives, not just treating hormones.
