Mood Disorders

Struggling with Mood and Emotional Balance?

Do you feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or disconnected from yourself? Are anxiety, irritability, mood swings, or trouble focusing making it hard to get through the day? These feelings could signal deeper imbalances in the body, such as:

Neurotransmitter disruptions (like low serotonin or dopamine)
Nutrient deficiencies
Hormonal shifts
Gut health issues

These challenges don’t arise without cause. Understanding the root causes of your emotional struggles is the first step to feeling better and finding lasting relief. At Create Wellness Clinic, we go beyond just treating the symptoms to uncover the imbalances affecting your mood and well-being.

How Imbalances Affect Mental Well-Being

Many factors can contribute to emotional instability, including:

Chronic stress that drains the nervous system
Environmental exposures to toxins that impact brain function
Poor sleep habits disrupting the natural balance of hormones and neurotransmitters
Diet and nutritional gaps that deprive the brain of essential nutrients

These factors can disrupt brain chemistry, leading to emotional challenges. For example:

Low serotonin or dopamine levels can drain motivation and negatively impact mood, often leading to feelings of depression or anxiety.
Vitamin and mineral deficiencies (such as low B vitamins, magnesium, and zinc) can worsen symptoms of anxiety, fatigue, and depression.
Hormonal fluctuations, such as those experienced during menopause or PMS, can significantly affect emotional balance, causing irritability or mood swings.
Gut health imbalances, via the gut-brain connection, can influence mood and cognition, creating a vicious cycle of mental and digestive health issues.

Immediate and Lasting Relief at Create Wellness

At Create Wellness Clinic, we don’t just treat symptoms. We offer a range of therapies designed to address mood imbalances from multiple angles, providing both immediate relief and long-term solutions:

1. Acupuncture

A powerful tool for calming the nervous system, acupuncture can help balance neurotransmitter levels, reduce anxiety, and promote a sense of calm. It also aids in stress management and improving sleep quality—two essential factors for emotional well-being.

2. Functional Lab Testing

Identifying nutrient deficiencies, neurotransmitter imbalances, and other underlying issues is the key to a personalized approach. Whether it’s neurotransmitter testing or comprehensive blood panels, we can assess the root causes of your mood disturbances and tailor a treatment plan to address them.

3. Nutrient Therapy and Vitamin IV Drips

Nutrient replenishment is essential for optimal brain function. We offer Vitamin IV therapy to quickly boost essential vitamins and minerals that may be deficient in your system, helping to alleviate symptoms like anxiety, fatigue, and brain fog. This is especially helpful for those with chronic mood challenges who need a quick nutrient boost for immediate relief.

4. Herbal Medicine

We utilize custom herbal remedies specifically formulated to support brain chemistry, stabilize mood, and improve emotional resilience. Our botanicals can help support the adrenal glands, calm the nervous system, and restore balance to the body.

5. Stress Management and Lifestyle Counseling

We emphasize the importance of stress reduction techniques, mindfulness practices, and lifestyle changes to help you maintain emotional balance. With expert guidance, we can help you develop a daily routine that supports long-term mental wellness.

6. Targeted Nutrition Counseling

Proper nourishment is one of the most powerful tools for improving mental health. Our nutritionists will work with you to create a personalized meal plan that addresses nutritional deficiencies, reduces inflammation, and supports neurotransmitter function. Simple, healthy changes to your diet can have a profound impact on mood stability.

7. Gut Health Optimization

Since mood is strongly influenced by gut health, we focus on addressing the gut-brain connection through targeted therapies. By optimizing digestion, improving gut flora, and addressing inflammation, we can help support emotional well-being and reduce feelings of anxiety and depression.

Nourishment and Mental Health: The Key to Stability

Proper nourishment is one of the most powerful tools for improving mental health. Your brain needs a steady supply of nutrients to maintain balanced neurotransmitter production and support overall emotional stability. A nutrient-dense diet that includes healthy fats, protein, vitamins, and minerals helps maintain stable blood sugar levels and reduces inflammation—all of which are vital for mood regulation.

Common nutrients that support mood health include:

B Vitamins: Essential for neurotransmitter production and energy levels.
Magnesium: Known for its calming effects on the nervous system and its role in reducing anxiety.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Important for brain function and reducing inflammation.
Zinc and Vitamin D: Vital for immune function and emotional health.

When the body lacks these vital nutrients, it can contribute to symptoms like irritability, mood swings, anxiety, and even depression. At Create Wellness, we focus on addressing these gaps through personalized nutrition plans and supplements that support long-term wellness and help stabilize mood.

To make it easy for you to access the right supplements, we offer a convenient online dispensary through Fullscript. You can browse and order the high-quality supplements that our providers recommend, delivered directly to your door.

Simple Lifestyle Tips for Emotional Balance

In addition to the therapies and treatments we offer, incorporating healthy lifestyle habits is key to supporting your emotional well-being. Here are some simple, actionable tips to start feeling better today:

1. Practice Daily Mindfulness

Implementation: Set aside 10-15 minutes every morning or evening for mindfulness or meditation. Even five minutes of focused breathing can help calm the nervous system and improve mood.

2. Establish a Sleep Routine

Implementation: Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep each night. Avoid caffeine and electronics at least one hour before bed to promote better sleep quality. Consider using essential oils like lavender or a calming herbal tea to wind down.

3. Stay Active

Implementation: Regular physical activity helps release endorphins (feel-good hormones) and can reduce stress. Aim for 20-30 minutes of exercise most days of the week—this can be as simple as walking, yoga, or light stretching.

4. Reduce Stress with Deep Breathing

Implementation: Practice deep breathing exercises throughout the day to reset your nervous system. Try taking 5-10 slow, deep breaths with a count of 4 on the inhale and 4 on the exhale to activate the parasympathetic nervous system.

5. Eat Balanced, Nutrient-Rich Meals

Implementation: Focus on including lean proteins, healthy fats, and plenty of vegetables at every meal. Reduce processed foods and sugar intake, which can lead to blood sugar fluctuations and mood swings.

6. Get Sunlight Exposure

Implementation: Aim for at least 15-30 minutes of sunlight exposure every morning to help regulate circadian rhythms and increase serotonin production.

7. Socialize and Connect

Implementation: Spending time with loved ones and nurturing positive relationships can help boost oxytocin and reduce feelings of anxiety or depression. Schedule regular social activities, even if they’re small, to stay connected.
