Here’s what low levels of neurotransmitters might feel like

🔹 Dopamine – No motivation, low libido, brain fog, craving caffeine
🔹 Serotonin – Sad, anxious, moody, can’t sleep, sugar cravings
🔹 Norepinephrine – Fatigued, unfocused, mentally flat
🔹 Acetylcholine – Forgetful, slow recall, word-finding issues
🔹 GABA – Wired but tired, anxious, restless, can’t shut your brain off

Want to support them naturally?

💡 Best strategies:
→ Eat good protein and healthy fats
→ Sleep deep and get excited about sleep
→ Move your body (HIIT, walks, strength)
→ Try supplements like tyrosine, magnesium, citicoline, or L-theanine (ask a pro first!)
→ Protect your gut + manage stress like it’s your full-time job

Your brain chemistry is highly trainable. Balance it, and you might see big changes

In most all cases when a muscle feels “tight” it is because it is neuromuscularly weak and needs better resting tone (tension) and motor control. This comes from compressing and strengthening a muscle through dynamic range.

Stop stretching and holding deep stretch positions without muscle engagement.

Your muscles are tight because they are lengthened. Like a rubber band, lengthening it more through stretch only increases the tension even more. You must make it shorter- through strengthing exercises.

If something hurts, find an exercise that recreates the pain, hold that position (isometric) and breathe, then slowly contract and slowly release that movement with continued breathing.

If you need help retrain tissues and teaching the brain safe range of motions then DM us and we can walk through a movement analysis to identify key areas for you to focus on!

20g of Creatine Monohydrate per day for 8 weeks resulted in better cognition, memory, and reading in Alzheimer’s patients.

Highlights: Creatine monohydrate
supplementation was feasible in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. Creatine monohydrate was associated with increased brain total
creatine. Creatine monohydrate was associated with improvements in cognition.

Brain Fueling and Brain Energy are everything!

Who takes creatine for brain health?!

If left unmanaged, ADHD can be destructive and problematic

If controlled and optimized, ADHD can be a powerful tool capable of transforming the future

It is a SUPERPOWER if you manage it properly, it can also be CONSUMING if you let it be.

🧠💥 What really happens inside the brain during a concussion?

It’s not “just a bump”—it’s a neurochemical storm:

⚡️ Ionic Imbalance – potassium out, calcium in; creating imbalances in nerve signaling
🔥 Energy Crisis – high demand, low supply
💣 Glutamate Overload – excitotoxicity damages neurons
🧬 Inflammation – your brain’s immune response gets locked into a negative feedback loop.

At Axon Integrative Health, we go beyond rest. We assess metabolic, inflammatory, and neurological changes—and create targeted plans to help your brain heal smarter and faster.

There are plenty of reasons why we use vibration at Axon.

Mainly because it helps turn on the brain 🧠 creating a better brain body connection (spatial awareness and proprioception)

It also helps to change how your body perceives gravity (through modulation of mechanoreceptors and motor neurons called Golgi tendon organs and muscle spindles), making some movements more demanding while on the VibePlate and thus easier on solid ground (like standing and gait training)

It can also modulate the cerebellum and sensory motor circuitry but helping enhance activation and allowing specificity and or flaccidity to be be challenged and more “balanced” so that we can train through it and make plastic changes to reduce specificity and engage more motor control.

Vibration also helps to improve blood flow and lymphatics - which so many people need.

Vibration can also help “beat out” pain as it travels to the brain faster than nociceptive pain does (that’s why you shake your hand after you pinch your finger in a door).

We also use quite a bit of vibrating toothbrushes to help improve proprioception and gait/ balance training along with other functional neurology training to help enhance brain activity and connections.

Thanks and for great vibration tools and helping change the brains and bodies of so many of our patients!

Supplements are supplemental. They’re not to replace or substitute fore real nutrition from the food you eat and fluid you drink. They certainly do help though!

They help to enhance the function and capacity of your current system in order to work on it and improve the demand of that new supply through lifestyle modifications.

Throughout all the research, these supplements seem to show the best results and outcomes measured.

There are many others that aren’t listed, what do you find benefit from?

Understanding Your Hormone Hierarchy

The base of your hormone pyramid is cortisol and insulin—two key players that influence every level above, from s*x hormones to thyroid function. When cortisol and insulin are out of balance, the entire pyramid is affected, leading to symptoms like fatigue, weight changes, poor sleep, and more.

There are also many other factors that affect hormones- your brain, nutrition, sleep, exercise, and microbiome have a lot to do with hormones. Ensuring these are optimized during your hormone journey is crucial.

This interconnected system highlights why brain health and stress regulation are essential for optimal hormone function. If you’re experiencing these symptoms, addressing cortisol, insulin, and brain-body signaling can be a powerful way to restore balance.

Don’t just turn to hormone replacement therapy as a quick fix. Understand your pyramid and how you can make last effective changes with simple solutions.

Ready to learn more? Let’s discuss how to strengthen the foundation of your hormone pyramid for better health. DM us or Call 720-994-2966 to get started.

Want to optimize your performance and longevity? Here’s a comprehensive, science-backed daily protocol:

✅ Prioritize sleep: Kickstart your day with morning sunlight, electrolytes, and movement to set your circadian rhythm. At night, avoid overhead lights and manage your glucose for deeper, restorative sleep. Glucose spikes often correlate with cortisol spikes- at night will wake you up and keep you up. Small protein/ complex carb/ fat snacks before bed go a long way.

✅ Eat with intention: Fuel your brain, body, and mind with nutrient-dense foods—maximize volume, diversity, and micronutrients. Spend time with your food, enjoy it and be mindful with it- not distracted and overeating.

✅ Train smart: Aim for 4-5 workouts each week, blending strength, power, speed, and endurance to support a resilient, high-performing body. Meet yourself where you’re at, don’t hurt yourself but try to do more than you did last week. Progressively overload, while you also consistently fuel recover and support.

✅ Build community: Surround yourself with people who elevate you. See your closest friends weekly for laughter, connection, and support. Time with friends around food double and show to provide countless long term benefits.

✅ Breathe: Take moments each day to ground yourself with conscious, deep breathing. Whether you follow a technique or just aware of the air moving in and out during breath- it’s the only mechanism that is both consciously and unconsciously mediated- there is likely a reason for that- use it.

This isn’t just a protocol—it’s a lifestyle. 🌟 practice it to optimize, perform, succeed, and feel your best on a daily basis.
