Are you adaptable?Stress really is that one constant in our lives. So much of our health depends on how we are able to adapt and manage this stress. Most of us think we would feel better if we just had less stress but the past two years have shown us that stress is here to stay. It’s up to us to build a resilient system. In our office we measure resiliency and adaptability by doing a Heart Rate Variability (HRV) scan. HRV testing is a simple and accurate test that uses complex mathematical calculations to analyze the rates and rhythms of the resting heart beat pattern. The data can be evaluated to reveal the intricate balance between the Sympathetic Nervous System (flight or flight)and the Parasympathetic Nervous System (rest and digest). Regulating your nervous system and taking care of that vagus nerve can help us build resiliency and adaptability in an ever increasingly stressful world. Fun fact not only can this test be performed on adults we have an adapter that makes it easy for us to test your child’s resiliency.Together we can build strong healthy resilient families
