How Does Stress Affect
Your Nervous System?
Physical
This includes factors like injury, poor posture, repetitive strain, and physical trauma. Physical stress can cause misalignments in the spine, which may lead to nerve interference. This interference can result in pain, restricted movement, and impaired communication between the brain and body. The nervous system's response to physical stress often includes heightened sensitivity and muscle tension, which can perpetuate discomfort and dysfunction.

Emotional
Emotional stress triggers the body's "fight or flight" response, which involves the release of stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. Chronic emotional stress can lead to overstimulation of the nervous system, affecting its ability to regulate physiological processes. This can result in symptoms such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, and physical manifestations like muscle tension and headaches. Emotional stress can also impair the nervous system's ability to manage and recover from other types of stress.

Chemical
Chemical stressors include exposure to toxins, pollutants, and imbalances in diet or medication. These stressors can disrupt the nervous system by affecting neurotransmitter function and overall brain chemistry. Chemical stress can lead to imbalances that influence mood, cognitive function, and overall neurological health. Chronic exposure to harmful chemicals can also impair the nervous system’s ability to maintain homeostasis and adapt to other stressors.

Your first visit is about understanding, not guessing.
We use advanced INSiGHT™ nervous system scans to get a clear picture of how your body is adapting to stress — so we can deliver care that supports healing from the inside out.
What we measure:
-
Heart Rate Variability (HRV): How well your body manages stress and recovers
-
Surface EMG (sEMG): Muscle tone and energy use along your spine
-
Thermal Scans: Temperature patterns that reflect nerve interference
Why It Matters:
These scans help us see more than just symptoms. They reveal how well your nervous system is functioning and adapting to daily physical, emotional, and chemical stressors.
Our Care Philosophy:
Our goal is to help your body expand its window of adaptability — so you can handle stress better, heal more efficiently, and live with more clarity, balance, and energy.
