Stress & Burnout
Stress & Burnout
An integrative approach to stress and burnout addressing both the lifestyle factors that contribute to the development of burnout whilst also addressing the physical components of how stress manifests within the body and any underlying medical conditions that may contribute to or be exacerbated by stress and burnout.
Stress and burnout can have far-reaching impacts on your physical, mental and emotional health. An integrative approach takes into account the different factors and needs in creating an effective treatment protocol to address the multiple-faceted nature of burnout.
At The Health Lodge we work collaboratively to effectively diagnose and treat stress and burnout, utilising a combination of medical and complementary therapies to effectively diagnose and address burnout and its associated symptoms.
Functional medicine provides a foundation for diagnosing and treating underlying medical conditions that may contribute to stress and burnout, whilst complementary therapies, such as mindfulness meditation, yoga, and relaxation exercises, can help individuals manage stress, reduce anxiety, and improve resilience. These techniques promote self-care, self-awareness, and emotional well-being. Integrating psychological support through counselling can help individuals explore the emotional and psychological factors contributing to stress and burnout.
Functional Medicine & Burnout
Functional medicine offers a holistic approach to addressing stress and burnout by understanding the underlying factors contributing to these conditions. At The Health Lodge we aim to identify and treat the root causes of your burnout.
Adrenal fatigue, caused by chronic stress and overworking the adrenal glands, can result in feelings of exhaustion, lack of motivation, and a loss of purpose. Similarly, hormonal imbalances can disrupt the delicate equilibrium in the body, affecting mood, energy levels, and overall well-being.
Our functional medicine practitioners specialise in evaluating and addressing these imbalances. Through a comprehensive assessment of your medical history, in-depth testing, and personalised analysis, we can identify specific dysfunctions in your adrenal and hormonal systems that may be contributing to your loss of direction and purpose.
Treatment approaches at The Health Lodge may include tailored interventions, this can involve personalised nutrition plans, stress management techniques, targeted supplementation, and other modalities to optimise your body’s function and vitality.
Psychology & Burnout
Psychology can be helpful for treating stress and burnout by providing individuals with strategies to understand and manage their emotions, thoughts, and behaviours, thus promoting psychological well-being and resilience.
Through various therapeutic approaches, such as cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based stress reduction strategies, and psychodynamic therapy (EMDR and IFS), psychologists can assist individuals in identifying and addressing the underlying causes of stress and burnout, developing coping skills, enhancing self-care practices, promoting healthy lifestyle changes, and fostering positive mindset and resilience, ultimately leading to improved stress management and overall mental health.
Working integratively with the practitioner team at The Health Lodge, our Psychologists understand and effectively address and support patients in the multi-faceted nature of stress and burnout.

Craniosacral Therapy & Burnout
Craniosacral therapy can be helpful for treating stress and burnout by employing gentle touch and manipulation techniques to restore balance in the craniosacral system, which includes the bones, tissues, and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. By applying subtle pressure to specific areas, craniosacral practitioners aim to release restrictions and tension, allowing the body’s natural healing mechanisms to engage and promote relaxation.
Craniosacral therapy can help regulate the nervous system, reduce stress, and enhance overall well-being. Through the gentle touch and focused attention, the therapy can create a safe and nurturing space for individuals to unwind, release emotional blockages, and alleviate physical and mental strain associated with stress and burnout.

IV Vitamin Therapy & Burnout
Intravenous vitamin therapy involves administering nutrients, vitamins, and minerals directly into the bloodstream via an intravenous line. Stress and burnout can deplete essential nutrients in the body. IV therapy provides a direct and efficient way to replenish these nutrients, such as vitamin B complex, magnesium, and antioxidants.
Adequate levels of these nutrients are crucial for maintaining energy levels, supporting the nervous system, and promoting overall well-being. IV therapy can quickly rehydrate the body, as well as provide a boost of energy. Dehydration can worsen stress symptoms, while proper hydration is vital for optimal physical and mental functioning. Some IV therapies can also include substances like magnesium or certain amino acids that have stress-reducing effects.
IV Vitamin Therapy at The Health Lodge is operated by our team on integrative Nurses and GPs.
