A Biological Approach to Treating Anxiety
OUR PHILOSOPHY: ANXIETY IS A TREATABLE CONDITION, NOT A DISORDER
Anxiety is a feeling of fear, dread, and uneasiness. It might cause you to sweat, feel restless and tense, and have a rapid heartbeat. It can be a normal reaction to stress. For example, you might feel anxious when faced with a difficult problem at work, before taking a test, or before making an important decision. Occasional anxiety is a normal part of life. Many people worry about things such as health, money, or family problems. But anxiety disorders involve more than temporary worry or fear. For people with an anxiety disorder, the anxiety does not go away and can get worse over time. The symptoms can interfere with daily activities such as job performance, schoolwork, and relationships. There are several types of anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, and various phobia-related disorders.
While most people have tried different medications and other treatments, often they report that they do not find relief from their symptoms.
Our Treatments offer a biological approach that identifies and treats the root cause of your symptoms.
Dual Stellate Ganglion Block (DSGB)
Dual Stellate Ganglion Block (DSGB)
The Dual Stellate Ganglion Block is an innovative treatment that utilizes two strategically placed injections on one side of your neck that target your body’s stress response system – the sympathetic nervous system. The Dual Stellate Ganglion Block (DSGB) is a promising biological intervention addressing an array of debilitating symptoms tied to an overactive sympathetic nervous system triggered by trauma or sustained stress.
Hormone Optimization
Hormone Optimization
Chronic stress causes alterations in brain function, leading to anxiety and depressive disorders affecting the hippocampus, amygdala, and prefrontal cortex. When testosterone and other hormones are imbalanced, the brain minds the gap with cortisol, leading to elevated heart rate and high blood pressure.By re-introducing hormone balance, symptoms often are relieved and an improved quality of wellness occurs.
BrainTap
BrainTap
BrainTap helps resynchronize your brain waves to their proper state. This leads to more energy and clarity during the day, and better, deeper rejuvenation sleep at night.
Because BrainTap can also help your brain shift to a meditative, open-minded, and relaxed state where the division between conscious and subconscious isn't as definitive, BrainTap can also be used therapeutically to help address various thought patterns and mental habits.
Identifying anxiety

Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) usually involves a persistent feeling of anxiety or dread, which can interfere with daily life.

How the Brain Uses Testosterone
Testosterone plays a crucial role in the brain, from organizational to bodily activation effects. Testosterone helps keep the brain's psychophysiology (mental process) running smoothly. Testosterone is strongly dependent on cognitive, emotional, and biobehavioral functions. Researchers have repeatedly confirmed that as men age, testosterone naturally decreases, hindering the brain's normal functions.
