Hormones are your body’s chemical messengers — powerful little signals that influence everything from mood and energy to metabolism and reproduction. When they drift out of balance, even slightly, you can start feeling like “you” is slipping away.
Common Symptoms of Hormone Imbalances
For Women:
Fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
PMS or irregular cycles
Hot flashes or night sweats
Difficulty losing weight, especially around the midsection
Hair thinning or loss
Mood swings, anxiety, or depression
Low libido
For Men:
Low energy or motivation
Loss of muscle mass or strength
Increased belly fat
Brain fog or trouble concentrating
Irritability or mood changes
Low libido or erectile difficulties
Sleep disturbances
If you’re reading that list and nodding your head, you’re not alone. Hormone imbalances are common, but they are not normal. And you don’t have to live with them.
How Functional Medicine & Applied Kinesiology Find the Root Cause
In our clinic, we don’t stop at “your hormones are off.” That’s just the starting point. Functional medicine looks deeper — into the why behind the imbalance. Is it stress overloading your adrenal glands? Is it blood sugar swings disrupting your sex hormones? Is there inflammation, nutrient depletion, or toxin exposure slowing your hormone production?
Applied Kinesiology (AK) adds another layer. Through specific muscle testing, reflex point assessment, and functional neurological checks, we can identify which systems are under stress and where your body’s priority for healing lies. AK can reveal patterns you won’t see on a lab test alone — and guide us toward the most effective therapies for you.
Our Process for Restoring Balance
Free Consultation – We start with a conversation. You share your symptoms, history, and goals, and we listen.
Lab Testing (If Needed) – If your symptoms or AK findings suggest deeper investigation, we may run targeted blood work, hormone panels, or other functional labs to get clarity.
Comprehensive Exam – This is where AK and functional assessment meet. We test muscle function, structural balance, neurological pathways, and more.
Individualized Plan – Based on your unique findings, we design a step-by-step plan that may include nutritional support, lifestyle shifts, structural corrections, and targeted supplementation.
Ongoing Support – Hormone balance doesn’t happen overnight, but with consistent care, your body can restore its own equilibrium over time. We walk with you every step of the way.
If you’ve been living with fatigue, mood changes, weight struggles, or other symptoms that you suspect are hormone-related, now is the time to get answers — not just more prescriptions or quick fixes. Your body is designed to heal when given the right support.
