At Absolute Wellness Center Inc , the intent of care in our office is to assist our clients on improving their neurological function. Also, we want to aid you in obtaining ideal neuroplasticity. Does this sound complicated? The nervous system simply can adapt and respond to a stressor and maintain homeostasis and balance. We have powerful tools at our fingertips, and our office has the latest technology that neuroscience has to offer. This means that you will not find another office that offers this technology unless you take a trip to Kansas City or St. Louis.

Holiday Stress & How to Deal

Thanksgiving and Christmas are on the horizon, and this can elicit all sorts of feelings of joy and merriment, but there is a HUGE part of the population who will breakdown into a nervous sweat when they see a Christmas countdown. The term is actually called “Festive stress” and it’s a real epidemic. In fact, there are studies showing that 31 percent of Americans describe the holidays as frantic. The turning point between mild stress and severe stress happens on December 18th, and it peaks until Christmas day around 2:05 - generally the time that families sit down for dinner. If the holidays bring you an enormous amount of anxiety, stress, and for many, even depression, now is the time to start your holiday regime and find ways to cope with the pressure of the season.
