Few conditions are as frustrating to treat as adrenal fatigue.
If you have asked your family doctor about it, you may have ended up with a prescription for antidepressants.
If you have visited a natural health practitioner, they may have recommended you take hundreds of dollars in supplements (all of which they conveniently sell).
The only thing these approaches have in common is that they don’t work.
Both leave you frustrated. And confused.
How to properly treat adrenal fatigue in Calgary
The key to diagnosing adrenal fatigue is identifying the root cause.
When you don’t treat the underlying or root cause, no amount of supplementation or medication is going to improve your energy.
Adrenal fatigue is caused by stress, but the source of stress may not be what you think it is.
The main cause of adrenal fatigue are hidden stresses. Not financial stress, work stress, or, any of the common culprits that come to mind when you think about stress. Hidden stress is the real reason your adrenal fatigue is not getting better.

How we help you overcome adrenal fatigue
We follow a four step process in all of adrenal fatigue treatment protocols. The four steps to move you from fatigued to flourishing include:
1. Identify your fatigue fighting nutrition plan
No templates here. We’ve developed a system to help you learn exactly which foods work with your body.
2. Identify and remove hidden gut issues
Even though your family doc or specialist says your gut is fine, most people dealing with adrenal fatigue have hidden gut issues. Until these are identified and resolved, your symptoms will remain.
3. Balance your stress hormones
Being sick for a long time creates an imbalance in your stress hormones. An imbalance in these hormones will prevent your body from healing – no matter what you do.
4. Uncover the hidden toxins making you tired
It’s not that any one of these steps has magical healing powers. It’s the synergy of all four steps working together in the correct order at the appropriate time. That’s when you start to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
I know or have worked with hundreds of alternative medicine practitioners. And I’ve never seen any of them implement these four steps into a cohesive treatment plan for their patients.
Some do food allergy/sensitivity testing. But what happens when you remove the foods but your symptoms remain?
Others specialize in gut health. But these knowledgeable practitioners forget about the stress hormones and hidden toxins.
Most practitioners know about stress hormones. But none of them know the 3 hidden causes behind them. Instead, they load you up with herbs and supplements. None of which end up improving your energy over the long-term.
I’ve not yet met any practitioners knowledgeable in the realm of environmental toxins. Weird toxins are all too often the root cause of strange illnesses like adrenal fatigue. If they’re not identified and removed, any treatment you do will not improve your condition.
Why you should consider working with Flourish Clinic
Care and mastery are what make the difference here at Flourish Clinic.
By the time any of our patients find us, they’ll – on average – have seen 5 other healthcare providers. Ranging from family docs and specialists to energy healers and shamans.
Those working in the conventional medical paradigm possess a great deal of mastery. But the care found in these clinics is almost non-existent.
In alternative medicine, you’ll often come across healers who truly care about your well-being – sometimes to a fault. But all too often this high level of care is married to a low level of mastery or understanding of your illness.
In order to overcome your illness, you need an abundance of care. And a practitioner with an expert level of understanding – or mastery – over your particular illness.
Care and Mastery are the foundation to the Flourish Framework. It’s these values that consistently gets us outstanding patient outcomes.
We’ve spent thousands of hours studying adrenal fatigue. No one in the Calgary area has the in-depth understanding and knowledge needed to help you overcome your fatigue.
