Sleep Analysis & Stress Regulation
Restorative sleep is not a luxury — it is one of the most essential foundations for psychological stability, regeneration, and hormonal balance.
Chronic stress, inner restlessness, or disruptions in cortisol and melatonin rhythms can significantly disturb sleep — affecting mood, energy, and concentration.
In my practice, I offer sleep and stress assessments to understand how the autonomic nervous system and hormonal stress axes (e.g., cortisol, DHEA, melatonin) are functioning.
When indicated, targeted laboratory testing of sleep and stress hormones is conducted to uncover regulatory imbalances.
Treatment focuses on re-establishing the body’s natural biorhythm through:
-
Sleep hygiene strategies
-
Psychotherapeutic support
-
Stress management
-
Breathing and relaxation techniques
-
Micronutrient or hormonal support, when necessary
When sleep and stress are in balance, the mind finds rest.
