Let's break it down:
Your gut health and microbiome balance plays a huge role in one’s overall health and wellness, as shown by many research studies now with a surge in interest in this complex part of the human body.
Not only is your gut considered our body’s “second brain” as the body’s main producer of serotonin (a whopping 95% of your body’s serotonin!), but it also houses 80% of your immune system and is vital for proper inflammation control. From nutrient absorption and metabolism to expulsion of waste and detoxification, the health of your intestines and how well the good bacteria in them are thriving have a surprisingly large impact on our health outside of digestion.
This includes our longevity, brain health and cognitive function, mood, immunity, skin health, neuromuscular health, and pain levels.*Let’s think about your plumbing or the trash bins in your house. With clean, unblocked pipes and regular trash/recycling pickups, you have smooth flow of water and waste in and out on a regular basis.
But what would happen if there were to be clogs here and there in the pipes, or if the trash/recycling bins weren’t emptied? Things would start to get backed up and cause a lot of issues– the same thing often happens with our lymphatic system!
Chronic inflammation oftentimes from poor dietary and lifestyle habits can lead to slower, weaker pumping of the lymphatic vessels. The result? Poor fluid balance with swelling in the body and/or face, weaker immunity from poorer circulation of white blood cells throughout the body, buildup of cellular waste from less efficient detoxing processes, worsening skin health, slow metabolism, and sometimes even pain.
Our unique treatment method helps target the lymphatic system to support & drain for better inflammation control.*The adrenal glands, located above the kidneys, play a crucial role in regulating hormones that control metabolism, immunity, blood pressure, and the body’s response to stress. Adrenal fatigue occurs when prolonged physical, emotional, or mental stress forces these glands to overproduce cortisol, the primary stress hormone. This hormonal imbalance disrupts the production of other essential hormones, leading to a range of health issues, including fatigue, weakened immunity, and other symptoms. A high-stress lifestyle, poor diet, and accumulated toxins can keep the body in a constant fight-or-flight state, which only worsens over time.
At Thomas Acupuncture & Wellness, our focus is on restoring the natural balance between the sympathetic (fight-or-flight) and parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) nervous systems. We aim to regulate cortisol levels, support kidney functions, and reduce the inflammation that drives chronic stress. By addressing these underlying issues, we help bring the body back to a state of balance, allowing for improved overall health and a reduction in stress-related symptoms.
