Amino acid therapy is used to optimize neurotransmitter function so a person can eliminate signs and symptoms of neurotransmitter imbalance, including depression, anxiety, obsessive thoughts, difficulty sleeping, compulsive and/or addictive behaviors, cravings for sweets, increased or insatiable hunger, increased pain (like in fibromyalgia), chronic fatigue, the urge to pull and pick (as in trichotillomania), migraines, poor memory, inability to focus or concentrate (including ADD/ADHD), weight gain/inability to lose weight, restless legs, Parkinson’s disease and many gastrointestinal imbalances (including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis).
Determining exactly how to use amino acid therapy to correct your specific imbalances requires the guidance of a properly trained health care professional; however, there is a lot you can learn to make sense of not only why you feel the way you do, but to understand the fundamentals behind how and why amino acid therapy can help you feel and be at your best.

The science behind amino acid therapy can seem pretty daunting, but the basic premise is that we need to restore proper communication within the brain/body. Once this communication is restored, symptoms of imbalance (including all those things listed above) disappear. In order to re-establish proper communication, we need to determine and provide the body the building blocks that it needs. We do this using specialized testing to guide our amino acid therapy recommendations until optimal communication is restored and you are free of symptoms due to neurotransmitter imbalance.
