The term mood disorder is a broad description that includes depression and bipolar disorder. Mood disorders can affect any age population, but the symptoms do not always present the same between children and teenagers and adults. Many people experience feelings of elevated moods which alternate with periods of depression. There are many factors that contribute to mood disorders including stress, family history, imbalance of brain chemicals, and low oxygen levels. Research has shown that gut microbiota also plays a role in how well our brains function. Anxiety disorders consist of panic disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, generalized anxiety, and phobias. The fear and worry of these conditions perpetuate the cycle by fueling the symptoms to continue.
Traditional treatment for mood and anxiety disorders involves medications such as antidepressants or mood stabilizers and/or therapies such as psychotherapy, family therapy, electroconvulsive therapy, or transcranial stimulation. However, these treatments are not addressing the root cause of the issue. Our brains are highly sensitive to oxygen concentrations. Low oxygen levels can result in decreased availability of nutrients, inadequate discharge of waste products, more cell injury/death, less neural plasticity, impaired immunity, and neurological dysfunction. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is an alternative treatment which will oxygenate the entire body, decrease inflammation, stimulate the growth of new healthy blood vessels, and release stem cells, up to 800% more after 20 sessions. Research has shown increased neural plasticity for mood disorders, reduced gut anaerobes, increased healing in the gastrointestinal tract, and decreased systemic inflammation.
A Quantitative EEG shows us electrical activity of the brain. We will be able to see if inflammation is present, if there are any areas of hyper- or hypoactivity, and any areas of disconnect. Using this information, we can focus on the area(s) of the brain most affected and bring those areas back into balance using Neurofeedback Therapy. Research has shown that Neurofeedback Therapy improves depression, even depression that has been resistant to medication, and decreases anxiety. Regarding PTSD, research has shown significant improvement in avoidance/numbing and hyperarousal. When using Neurofeedback Therapy to treat OCD, research shows a significant improvement in symptoms related to OCD.
In our nutritional services, our mission is to teach clients how to nourish their bodies and minds by paying attention to everything they take in, noticing the effect on their daily lives, and empowering them to make ever-healthier choices. Nutrition has a direct correlation to mental health and mood disorders, so noticing and changing the foods being consumed can help individuals regulate their bodies and their mental health at the same time.
Nutrition coaching provides the information and support you need to learn to enjoy health-building foods, create a healthy living environment, and feel good in your body. We help you to learn more about food and how food interacts with your body while providing you support and guidance on your journey with nutrition.
