Is Stress Making You Sick?

50-70% of patients seeing medical providers today have a stress induced illness. Stress related mind body diseases have replaced infectious disease as the major medical problem in Western Society.

We live in an fast-paced society with financial, personal, and emotional stress around every corner. This constant state of emergency over stimulates our Sympathetic Nervous System. We are continuously responding to a threat that never goes away! In response, our body produces damaging hormones that attack our own immunities. This causes harm to the body, wreaking havoc on our health and over all well being.

Because of imbalance in our lives, we must constantly strive to bring about a state of relaxation and tranquility. When we are in a relaxed state our Parasympathetic Nervous System is stimulated, which allows our bodies to begin producing healing hormones that fight disease and enhance overall health.

Measure your stress level, your risk of developing a stress-related disorder, and understand the effects stress may have on your life.
