Longevity & Anti-Aging

Add Life To Your Years - Not Just Years to Your Life

At Back On Track 2 Wellness, we believe true longevity isn’t about chasing youth—it’s about protecting your vitality, clarity, strength, and freedom. It’s about living fully, staying sharp, and showing up for the life you love—not just sticking around longer.

If you’re feeling more drained, foggy, inflamed, or disconnected as the years go on, you don’t need to accept that as your new normal. These are signs that your body is out of sync—and they can be reversed. Our Functional Medicine approach helps restore balance, rebuild energy, and slow the rate of biological aging so you can feel like yourself again… and stay that way.

Longevity Is Capacity

Capacity to move, think, connect, & live.

Aging isn’t a countdown—it’s a reflection of how well your body’s systems are functioning. Energy, recovery, mental sharpness, sleep, digestion, metabolism, mood—they all work together to determine your quality of life. And most age-related decline doesn’t happen because of the calendar. It happens because of inflammation, mitochondrial breakdown, hormonal shifts, and accumulated stress.

We don’t wait for symptoms to become disease. We go upstream—tracking key markers of biological age and function, and using advanced diagnostics to uncover what’s really slowing you down. Then we build a personalized, science-based plan to restore your body's natural resilience—so you can feel better now and protect your future.

The Science of Staying Younger

You’re not just losing energy, strength, or memory because of age. You’re losing cellular performance.

Mitochondria—the engines of your cells—begin to slow down under the weight of stress, toxins, nutrient depletion, and inflammation. Hormones shift. Detox pathways stall. Blood sugar becomes harder to regulate. And that’s when you feel it: brain fog, poor recovery, stubborn weight, low motivation, aches that linger longer.

We specialize in reversing that biological slowdown. Our longevity assessments look at the systems beneath the symptoms: mitochondrial efficiency, oxidative stress, hormone rhythms, and your body's ability to repair and regenerate.

This isn’t about chasing youth—it’s about restoring the function that lets you live with clarity, confidence, and power.

The Longevity Shift

This isn’t a reset. It’s a redesign.

Most people wait until something breaks to pay attention to their health. Our patients choose differently. They want more than just “not being sick”—they want optimization.

They want to feel sharp at work and strong in the gym. They want to travel without fatigue, connect without irritability, sleep through the night, and wake up ready—not reaching for caffeine.

We work with people who are ready to shift from reactive care to proactive living. If that’s you, this is your next step.

Our 9 Hallmarks of Aging

The Real Reasons You’re Slowing Down

We believe aging is not a diagnosis—it's a dynamic process that reflects how well your body’s core systems are functioning. While science recognizes several cellular and molecular “hallmarks” of aging, we take it a step further. We’ve identified the key areas we see driving premature aging—and more importantly, the ones we help patients reclaim through targeted, personalized care.

1. Metabolic Inflexibility

When your body struggles to efficiently shift between burning carbs, fats, and ketones, energy becomes inconsistent, fat stores increase, and inflammation rises. You may feel more tired after meals, gain weight more easily, or notice poor recovery from exercise or stress.

2. Hormonal Depletion & Dysregulation

Testosterone, estrogen, DHEA, cortisol, and melatonin often shift with age and chronic stress. These changes affect sleep, metabolism, muscle maintenance, libido, mood, and cognitive sharpness. Even if hormone levels are technically "within range," imbalance can still occur.

3. Chronic Inflammation (Inflammaging)

Persistent low-level inflammation is one of the earliest drivers of aging. It impacts joint health, digestion, brain function, and immune regulation, while quietly increasing the risk of long-term disease and tissue damage.

4. Toxic Burden & Detox Dysfunction

Over time, the body accumulates toxins from food, water, air, mold, plastics, and chemicals. When detoxification pathways slow down, these compounds build up, adding stress to cells, interfering with hormones, and promoting oxidative damage.

5. Neurodegeneration & Cognitive Decline

Cognitive changes like brain fog, poor memory, low focus, or mood shifts are often early signs of neurological stress. These may stem from inflammation, blood sugar issues, poor gut health, or nutrient deficiencies, even before imaging or labs detect a problem.

6. Sleep Disruption & Circadian Breakdown

Sleep becomes lighter and less restorative as melatonin production declines or cortisol spikes at night. Poor sleep quality reduces the body's ability to repair tissues, balance hormones, and clear metabolic waste, which contributes to faster physiological decline.

7. Loss of Muscle & Mobility

Sarcopenia, the loss of lean muscle, can begin in midlife. It affects strength, metabolism, posture, blood sugar regulation, and physical resilience. Reduced muscle mass is linked to a higher risk of falls, fractures, and reduced longevity.

8. Immune Confusion & Decline

Aging affects both sides of the immune system. Some people become more prone to infections, while others experience more allergies or autoimmune activity. These patterns often reflect breakdown in gut-immune communication or chronic hidden stressors.

9. Mitochondrial Breakdown

Mitochondria fuel every cell in your body. As they weaken, energy production drops, recovery slows, and the aging process accelerates at a cellular level. At the same time, telomeres—the protective caps on the ends of your chromosomes—naturally shorten with stress, poor lifestyle habits, and inflammation. Shortened telomeres are one of the most well-documented markers of accelerated aging and biological wear.

Our Approach to Longevity

Reversing the Signs of Aging & Decline

You don’t just wake up one day feeling older—aging happens slowly, system by system. Energy starts to dip. Brain fog becomes more frequent. Sleep feels lighter. Recovery takes longer. Mood, metabolism, and motivation shift quietly in the background until one day, you realize… something isn’t working the way it used to.

These are the signals we track. These are the systems we strengthen. This is how we help you reverse the trajectory—not by managing symptoms, but by restoring your ability to function, heal, and thrive over time.

Low Energy & Chronic Fatigue

If your tank feels empty no matter how much sleep you get, we look deeper than surface-level fatigue. We evaluate mitochondrial function—the part of your cells responsible for energy production—as well as nutrient absorption, adrenal reserve, toxic load, and oxygen delivery. Chronic fatigue is rarely just one thing; it's often the result of multiple systems running inefficiently. Our approach helps restore cellular vitality so you can feel consistently energized throughout the day—without relying on caffeine or sheer willpower.

Brain Fog, Mood Shifts & Memory Changes

Your brain is one of the first places aging shows up—but it’s also one of the most responsive to the right kind of care. Cognitive changes often stem from neuroinflammation, hormonal shifts, blood sugar instability, or gut-brain axis dysfunction. We assess neurotransmitter balance, nutrient cofactors, detoxification capacity, and inflammatory markers. Then we use targeted nutrition, nervous system regulation, and lifestyle strategies to support memory, focus, and emotional stability—so you can think clearly, feel balanced, and stay mentally sharp as you age.

Hormonal Imbalance & Decline

Hormones don’t just affect fertility—they influence sleep, metabolism, muscle mass, cognitive function, stress resilience, and more. With age and stress, levels of testosterone, estrogen, DHEA, cortisol, and thyroid hormones often shift out of balance. But rather than defaulting to prescriptions, we assess your full hormone cascade and identify the upstream causes of dysregulation—such as liver congestion, adrenal burnout, insulin resistance, or inflammatory triggers. Then we support natural hormone production and rhythm through diet, detox, targeted nutrients, and, when appropriate, hormone replacement.

Weight Gain & Muscle Loss

If your body composition is changing despite your best efforts, it's often a sign of deeper metabolic imbalance. We go beyond calories and exercise to assess insulin sensitivity, cortisol patterns, inflammation, thyroid function, and protein metabolism. Loss of lean muscle and an increase in visceral fat can accelerate aging and disease risk. We help you build a program that supports muscle retention, boosts metabolic flexibility, and improves your body’s ability to burn fat—so you can stay strong, lean, and active through every stage of life.

Disrupted Sleep & Poor Recovery

Rest is where healing happens—but as you age, the quality of your sleep often declines. Whether you struggle to fall asleep, wake up frequently, or never feel rested, we assess what’s interfering with your body’s ability to repair. This might include cortisol surges, melatonin suppression, blood sugar dips, sleep apnea risk, or neurotransmitter imbalances. We work to restore your circadian rhythm, rebalance your nervous system, and support the natural processes that promote deep, restorative sleep and efficient recovery from physical and mental stress.

Systemic Inflammation & Early Disease Patterns

Inflammation is at the root of most chronic conditions—and it often starts quietly, years before diagnosis. We identify what’s driving the inflammatory load in your body: leaky gut, food sensitivities, immune dysregulation, hidden infections, or toxic exposure. Then we work to remove those triggers while strengthening your detox pathways, restoring gut integrity, and calming the immune system. By addressing inflammation early, we not only help you feel better—we also reduce your long-term risk of degenerative disease, cognitive decline, and accelerated aging.

Want More Years? Start With Better Days.

Health Is More than The Absence of Disease.

Longevity isn’t built in a lab or unlocked through a single test—it’s earned in the day-to-day. It’s in the way you move, eat, think, sleep, recover, and respond to the stress of life. It’s the consistency of small, powerful choices that keep your systems sharp, your energy stable, your mind clear, and your body strong. This isn’t about living longer just to accumulate more time—it’s about preserving your ability to live fully in the years you’re already moving into.

What we care about most is helping you protect your capacity to participate in the life you’ve built—to travel without fatigue, to stay sharp at work, to chase your grandkids, to engage in deep conversations, to sleep deeply and wake energized, to bounce back quickly when life throws curveballs. That’s what true longevity means. And it doesn’t come from crash diets, guesswork, or gimmicks—it comes from a clear understanding of how your body works, what it needs, and how to support it in a way that feels sustainable.

We’re not just interested in how you feel next week—we’re helping you build a body, brain, and lifestyle that still serves you 10, 20, even 30 years from now.

Will E.

"I’ve been seeing Dr Todd for almost 15 years. I started off seeing him for my chronic low back pain. Through the years of my treatment, I would talk to Dr Todd about my mysterious symptoms that would come and go in my body. They were symptoms I had a hard time describing. It wasn’t related to my back. It was the way I felt. Fatigue, extreme brain fog and just felt like I couldn’t get out of my own way. Dr Todd recommended I do some lab work. I was hesitant to run labs because I was worried what we would find on my results. I knew the way I felt wasn’t normal and I always felt my primary medical doctor was brushing my symptoms under the rug, I finally got tired of the way I felt and took my labs. Dr Todd discovered a lot when reviewing my lab results. I have a thyroid condition called Hashimoto’s. At this point I knew I wasn’t’ crazy. The symptoms I had been feeling for years were verified. Through changing my diet, implementing healthier lifestyle changes, and incorporating supplements, I began feeling better immediately. I was eating the wrong foods for my body. Through Dr Todd’s help I discovered I have multiple food and chemical sensitivities. Honestly, I never really knew why I would get an immediate headache when I went into Macy’s. He taught me the connection my weak immune system was having against environmental chemicals. This one piece of knowledge has been everything to my healing and well-being. I have been meeting with Dr Todd and Monica for years now to help me manage my lifestyle and supplements to help me feel by best. Monica has helped me with healthy cooking techniques, helped detox my home and encourages me to stay motivated in living the healthiest lifestyle to feel my best. Thank you, Dr Todd and Monica, I don’t know where I would be today without you guys."

Maria R.

"Since I was 10 years old I have been struggling physically and mentally. I battled with anxiety, gut and cycle issues, etc. for two decades I was told by doctors my tests are normal and I was “fine.” That it was all in my head and therapy would fix it. I decided to take matters into my own hands with diet and exercise, but when that wasn’t good enough I sought out functional medicine. Enter Todd and Monica! They were so encouraging and after more testing it was discovered I had about 20 different infections, hormones issues, autoimmunity, and more. It was indeed not all in my head! Now I am working with them to heal two decades of issues. Their patience and willingness to work with me continually is everything. Their office is welcoming and Dr. Todd has a sense of humor that can make you laugh even when you feel awful. The way he reads the tests as a whole and dissects all the data is unlike any other doctor I’ve met. Monica’s knowledge on nutrition has changed how I view food. I don’t know where I would be if I didn’t find them. I can say for certain that I would be alot less healthy. the amount of times I have sobbed in the appointments is comical, but I’ve always been met with understanding and a game plan. Now I have hope that I will indeed be well again and every single day I feel better and better. Even in the flare ups I know I have a great team, whose knowledge and understanding of the human body has changed my entire existence. And we aren’t even done yet. I cannot recommend them enough."

Jessica N.

"Before seeing Monica and Todd I was struggling with chronic fatigue, brain fog, stomach issues, mental health issues and weight gain. Although its still an ongoing process, my health has drastically improved in just a few months and has changed my life for the better. I've discovered I'm capable of so much more now that I feel better. It's awesome working with people who care and want to see you succeed. If you want
to skip the waiting room anxiety and bandaid solutions, this is the place 🙂 "

I’ve been able to live a life full of satisfaction and general well being because they helped me to address the root causes of my depression, lack of drive and low energy. Professionally, they are the best at what they do. Personally, they have become dear friends and I trust them completely."

Doralyn M.

"When I first walked into Back On Track 2 Wellness, I didn't really know what was wrong with me. I just knew I had severe brain fog, constant fatigue, and couldn't shake off the extra weight. From the get-go, Dr. Todd and Monica made me feel genuinely heard and cared for.

Dr. Todd and Monica really took the time to understand my health history, lifestyle, and goals. They did thorough diagnostics and through attentive listening, they figured out I was dealing with an autoimmune condition and chronic inflammation. This helped them create a personalized care plan that was just right for me.
One of the best parts of my wellness plan was the focus on using food as medicine. Monica helped me with a customized nutritional plan, showing me how to nourish my body with anti-inflammatory foods. This not only helped me manage my autoimmune condition but also led to significant weight loss. Now, I really get how food affects my health, and I've adopted healthy eating habits that have totally transformed my life.

I've always struggled to stay consistent with eating well, taking supplements, and exercising. But the support and encouragement from Dr. Todd and Monica made a huge difference. They gave me practical tips, regular check-ins, and unwavering support, which helped me stay on track. Their dedication to my success was clear every step of the way.

Before starting my journey with Back On Track 2 Wellness, I was constantly battling brain fog and low energy levels. Dr. Todd's functional medicine approach, with targeted supplements and lifestyle changes, has drastically improved my cognitive function. Now, I feel more alert, focused, and energized every day. This mental clarity has been a game-changer for both my work and personal life."

Judy H.

"I'm an athlete. I am constantly dealing with injuries and back pain. Dr Todd has kept me moving and has helped me heal my injuries so I can continue to play sports. I've also battled auto immune disease issues, and since being on Dr Todd's protocols, I have lost over 30 lbs and feel so much better internally. I've been seeing Dr Todd for over 19 years and wouldn't trust anyone else to help me heal my body. My whole family goes to Back on Track for their own adjustments as well. Forever grateful."

Stacy R.

"At 12 years old our son was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. The hospital doctors told us that he was fine to eat any diet he wanted as long as we dosed insulin correspondingly. They even recommended a diet consisting of around 75 carbs per meal. We realized that after eating large meals full of carbs, he was fatigued, lacked strength, and couldn't concentrate very well. With Dr. Todd and Monica's help, we discovered what makes his body tick, what his triggers are, how his body responds to certain foods, and what his body likes best. With their help, his blood sugar has balanced out and he maintains an incredible range. At his last endocrinology appointment, his endo was stunned at his numbers and says it is some of the best numbers he has seen. We can't recommend Dr. Todd and Monica enough for helping manage autoimmune conditions such as Type 1 Diabetes. Their experience clearly shows in their work and their compassion and care is second to none."

Lego M.

"I love Back on Track 2 Wellness! Dr. Todd is an incredible chiropractor! He is very hospitable, experienced and knowledgeable. He genuinely cares about his patients. Another reason I love this office is because, Dr. Todd and his wife Monica specialize in Functional Medicine care. This is so important for anyone with an autoimmune disease or chronic illness. They get to the root of these illnesses and offer a protocol to get you well and give you a healthier and better quality of life."

Deitra N.

"Dr. Bunning and his staff have helped my family for over three years, with many more to come. He is an amazing chiropractor but more than that, he is a passionate functional medicine doctor and his desire to help his patients is like nothing I have ever experienced. His knowledge to help better his patients health and lives is very inspiring. My daughter and I not only leave feeling better physically, but we feel emotionally better. The real deal."

Gina M.

"For years I struggled with mystery symptoms with no relief. I have tried every diet you could imagine, had every test imaginable. With no relief in sight I reached out to Dr. Todd for functional medicine treatment. WHAT A TURN AROUND. I have FINALLY found the answers and someone who understands my condition, and works with me on my treatment. I feel like I am finally on a path to healing. It is not an easy road, but Monica my functional counselor has been amazing at guiding me through this journey with her support and Dr. Todd is so knowledgeable and caring. I feel so lucky to have found them. I recommend them highly!"

Katie G.

"I have been a patient of Dr. Bunning for 15 years. He is concerned about the physical and mental health of each patient. He is a functional medicine doctor as well as a chiropractor. He orders blood tests for the whole body to help detect problems that could develop in the future if I don't take care of myself . I have back issues due to previous injuries and with his treatments I have avoided any surgery. Even though I sometimes get off track he never gives up on me. Dr. Bunning cares about his patients and he is a great chiropractor. I appreciate him."

Carol S.

"This place has changed my life. They’ve educated me and given me the proper tools and resources to manage my autoimmune disease. Western medicine is just a band aid, but holistic and functional medicine gets to the root cause of your disease and ailments. I’m forever grateful I’ve found this place. Thank you!!!"
