Anxiety (Neurologically Driven)
What It Is
While anxiety can have emotional and psychological causes, it’s often tied to dysregulation in the autonomic nervous system — where the body stays stuck in a “fight or flight” response even when there’s no immediate threat.
Common Symptoms
- Racing thoughts or panic
- Heart palpitations or chest tightness
- Insomnia or restlessness
- GI discomfort (nausea, IBS)
- Dizziness or lightheadedness
- Irritability or overstimulation
Our Approach
We help regulate the nervous system by addressing the physiology of anxiety, not just the psychology. Our methods include vagal nerve stimulation, visual desensitization, breathing techniques, and gentle neurological rehab to build resilience and calm.
What to Expect
Our patients often report feeling more grounded, less reactive, and better able to sleep or concentrate within the first few weeks of care. We coordinate care with therapists when needed.
