O-Shot and Vaginal Rejuvination | Naturopathic Doctors

“O” It’s About Time.

Better Sex and Vaginal Rejuvenation, Naturally.

Who doesn’t want to have great sex? As humans, it’s part of how we communicate. It’s part of our genetic wiring. Great and regular sex can squash depression and anxiety, increase immunity, and decrease stress. We all have sex, and we are meant to enjoy healthy sex. Few things are as intimate as making love to the one you love. However, things like chronic stress, medical conditions (and/or the medications used to treat them), emotional issues, and trauma can significantly impact the quality of sex we are having. This can hinder one’s ability to enjoy this special encounter. This is known as sexual dysfunction, visit .

What Is Sexual Dysfunction Exactly?

There are several phases related to love-making, including desire, arousal, the build-up, and climax. Sexual dysfunction is characterized by problems during any stage of the sexual response cycle that prevents a person from experiencing satisfaction from sexual activity. Diabetes, heart disease, and neurological issues can cause this condition. Other factors can cause this condition, including hormone imbalances (like hypothyroidism or menopause), dyspareunia (painful sex), addiction, chronic antidepressant use, and well-being issues such as stress, anxiety, trauma, and depression. As many as 43% of women (and 31% of men), according to research, have some type of sexual dysfunction. Now, for the first time, women have a viable option for treating it. Enter the orgasm shot or O-Shot®.

What Is the O-Shot®?

It is an injection used to treat sexual dysfunction and female incontinence. If you have heard of the Vampire Facelift, then you may be familiar with the O-Shot® because the premise is the same. It is done by using platelets in your blood to stimulate cellular regeneration. This procedure is commonly known as PRP or platelet-rich plasma.

How Does PRP Work?

Blood is drawn from the patient and spun down to concentrate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP). With a topical anesthetic, the PRP is then injected back into vaginal and clitoral arousal centers. The PRP contains the patient’s own growth factors, which stimulate collagen and blood flow. This causes a rejuvenating effect on the vagina and increases tone. In turn, it increases stimulation and pleasure. This means increased clitoral arousal, stronger vaginal orgasm, and better natural lubrication. Because the platelets come from your blood, there are no known side effects. The shot can be effective for up to two years.

Though each woman’s response to the O-Shot® can be different, here’s a list of some results that O-Shot® patients have reported:

Greater arousal from clitoral stimulation
Younger, smoother skin of the vulva (lips of the vagina)
A tighter introitus (vaginal opening)
Stronger orgasm
More frequent orgasm
Increased sexual desire
Increased ability to have a vaginal orgasm
Decreased pain for those with dyspareunia (painful intercourse)
Increased natural lubrication
Decreased urinary incontinence

While there is no magic treatment that takes the place of all the other factors necessary for amazing sex (emotional, hormonal, relationship, and general health), the O-Shot® addresses certain physical issues that can have a profound effect on sexual function. Be sure to find a practitioner who is trained in administering the O-Shot®. Click for more info about the O-Shot® and O-Shot® Research.

Testimonial From a Patient on 10/3/14:

Dear Dr. Turner

I came to you because of a need for rejuvenation of sexual function after menopause. Sex was totally nonexistent in our marriage because of the discomfort caused by dryness, loss of elasticity, etc. After discussing the “O shot” and researching it, we decided that would be our next option. The procedure gave us back our love life, intimacy and happily pleasurable sexual function. I feel like a woman once again and the sexual well-being has had an extremely positive effect on our lives as husband and wife. Thank you Dr. Turner for your kindness and professionalism in helping us. ~PP & DP

Can’t say enough about Dr. Marianne Marchese! Her commitment to women’s wellness, calm, knowledgeable, non-judgemental guidance and insightful diagnoses / treatment has me turn to her for all my wellness needs. She takes the time to really listen. I feel heard and valued in her care.

I'm writing my review for Dr. Sarv Varta Khalsa. I met with her a few months ago to receive treatment for a condition I'd been dealing with for an extensive amount of time. She was incredibly kind and took the time to listen to all the details of the symptoms I was experiencing. The office had the prescriptions I needed on-hand so I didn't need to go off-site to find them. All natural remedies, and at comparatively good prices (I don't remember how much exactly, but if they were up-charging, which I doubt, I didn't notice nor would I have minded for the convenience). I'm still symptom-free now after following her recommendations, so I wanted to write a review to express my gratitude. Even though the appointment was pricey, it was worth every single penny to finally be able to live my life feeling normal again. Thank you so much!!

Dr. Watkins is nothing short of incredible. She is kind and personable, while extremely smart and results driven. I have suffered from digestive and hormonal issues my whole life and it wasn't until I met Dr. Watkins that I finally felt heard by a Dr and saw a difference in my health. I can confidently say that my body has never felt this good and we are still working to be even better. If you are ready to feel better and feel heard from your doctor, then run, don't walk to Living Wellness.

Dr Olivia Watkins offers a beautiful aura of sincere loving support that I will forever cherish, as she exudes and radiates a beautiful light towards her patients' health care needs. Also, her staff, Joslyn and Ariana are as sweet as they come and have been as helpful as can be to me. One issue I had (and have had a few) was a lack of nutrient absorption and it was Dr Olivia who helped me change that status (thank God!) which I'm already seeing immediate results from and I've had this issue for years which my nails and hair loss were severely revealing! I've also experienced so much stress in the last year and a half, that having Dr Olivia as part of my healing process has made all the difference in my recovery to a more whole being! At this point, I seriously don't know what I'd do without her, as she is now my go-to health advocate and will be to my end days. Dr Olivia is a GodSend! Don't hesitate to call her office. High fives for the brightest healing light you could ever pray for in life! After eight long years, Dr Olivia just recently finished her GM residency and once again, I must congratulate her on such discipline and hard work as it has obviously paid off in spades! Long live Dr Olivia!

Dr. Watkins is life changing! I am so grateful that I was referred to Living Wellness and her specifically. I’ve been dealing with severe stomach issues for 10 years and have gone through the ringer with the test, labs, and over-the-counter medicine suggested by other doctors. Dr. Watkins is so smart, thoughtful, and attentive to every detail so that she can really get down to the bottom of your problems. She feels like a teammate and a very strong coach and a friend all in one. I’m finally on my way to feeling better and I couldn’t have done this without her. If you’re struggling don’t even hesitate to see her or any of the staff at living wellness. I promise you won’t regret it!

I saw Dr. Warkins several times and was overly impressed her. I was going through cancer treatments and she was compassionate and resourceful. We connected and I felt at such ease with her. She followed up with me multiple times to see how I was doing and feeling. I will continue to see her for any future Gyn needs.

I began to see Dr. Watkins for some general Women's Health issues and she was incredible to work with. She helped my body become more balanced, pain was relieved naturally, and my body was prepared for a healthy pregnancy. She is kind, knowledgable, and very supportive!
