What Is Depression and How Does It Develop Over Time?
Depression is a complex mental health condition characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, emptiness, and loss of interest in activities. Depression involves biological changes in brain chemistry, hormone levels, and nervous system function. Many cases of depression related to burnout and stress develop when the body's stress system becomes chronically overactivated.
At Reboot Vitality, we are dedicated to providing chronic depression support through our innovative nervous system approach to depression. We avoid unnecessary medications and surgeries with our approach while still providing you optimal healing.
If you're looking for help with depression related to burnout and stress, schedule your appointment today. Our depression treatment program can help you restore balance so that you return to feeling like yourself again.
Common Causes of Depression
Understanding the potential causes of depression can help you prevent it in the future. For those already experiencing depression, it can be helpful to understand the causes in order to determine what depression treatment options are right for you.
Depression is often the result of one of a variety of factors:
Chronic Stress and Burnout
When your body remains in a state of high alert for extended periods, the stress system breaks down. This chronic activation depletes neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which are essential for mood regulation.
Traumatic Experiences
Past trauma, whether from childhood, relationship difficulties, or specific events, can rewire the nervous system and create lasting changes in how your brain processes emotions and stress.
Hormone Imbalances
Disruptions in cortisol, thyroid hormones, testosterone, estrogen, or progesterone can significantly impact mood, energy, and emotional stability. Many people don't realize their depression has a hormonal component.
Lack of Support and Connection
Isolation and lack of meaningful social connections can worsen depression symptoms. Humans are wired for connection, and without it, depression can take hold more easily.
Poor Sleep and Lifestyle Factors
Disrupted sleep patterns, poor nutrition, lack of physical activity, and excessive screen time can all contribute to the development and persistence of depression.
Common Signs of Depression and Nervous System Dysregulation
Depression is a biological breakdown involving the nervous system, neurotransmitter production, and hormone regulation. Chronic nervous system dysregulation leads to:
- Persistent sadness or emptiness
- Loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed
- Fatigue and low energy
- Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
- Changes in appetite or weight
- Sleep problems (insomnia or oversleeping)
- Feelings of worthlessness or guilt
- Irritability or restlessness
- Physical symptoms like headaches or digestive issues
Our Dual Stellate Ganglion Block (DSGB) is one of the most effective tools in resetting the body's stress system and restoring nervous system balance. Combined with peptide therapy (Semax, Selank, and Dihexa), amino acid IV therapy, Red light therapy, BrainTap mental reset programs, Dopamine Pod, molecular hydrogen, and hormone optimization, we help patients restore mood, motivation, and emotional resilience.
About Our Depression Treatment Program
At Reboot Vitality, we offer a specialized program for depression treatment that targets the nervous system's role in mood regulation. The process utilizes Dual Stellate Ganglion Block (DSGB) to help reset the mind's stress responses and restore balance to the sympathetic nervous system. The stellate ganglion is a bundle of sympathetic nerves in the neck responsible for regulating stress responses.
When these nerves become overactive due to trauma, chronic stress, or prolonged adrenal overload, the brain gets stuck in survival mode leading to disrupted neurotransmitter production, emotional numbness, persistent sadness, difficulty experiencing pleasure, and changes in sleep and appetite. DSGB works by using ultrasound‒guided precision injections to temporarily block these sympathetic nerves, interrupting the stress circuitry and allowing the brain to reboot.
We offer multiple levels of treatment for comprehensive depression treatment options. At higher tiers, we're able to better diagnose how your body is responding and determine the best support treatments to further enhance your recovery.
TREATMENT OPTIONS
Additional Treatment Options for Depression
While DSGB is our primary method for providing non-medication depression treatment and related conditions in our patients, we provide a variety of support treatments to further enhance healing. Some of the additional depression treatment options we offer include:
These advanced peptide therapies work at the neurological level to support brain function, improve mood regulation, enhance neuroplasticity, and reduce anxiety. Semax promotes cognitive function and stress resilience, Selank provides anxiolytic effects and emotional stability, while Dihexa supports neurogenesis and long-term brain health.
Amino acids are the building blocks of neurotransmitters. Our IV therapy delivers targeted amino acids directly into your bloodstream to support serotonin, dopamine, and GABA production, the key neurotransmitters involved in mood regulation and emotional well-being.
Red light therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular energy production, reduce inflammation in the brain, and support mitochondrial function. This therapy has been shown to improve mood, energy levels, and overall brain health.
BrainTap is one of the most advanced brain-based therapies available for reducing stress, balancing the nervous system, improving sleep quality, and optimizing mental performance. The technology uses guided visualization and brainwave entrainment to reset mental patterns.
The Dopamine Pod™ is a proprietary neurochemical restoration therapy available exclusively at Reboot Vitality. It is designed to rebalance dopamine pathways, which are often disrupted in depression, and improve overall mental health and motivation.
Reboot Vitality specializes in precision-based Hormone Optimization, using advanced lab testing, medical-grade protocols, and personalized treatment plans to restore hormonal balance safely. Many cases of depression have underlying hormone imbalances that need to be addressed for complete recovery.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can depression treatment help with chronic fatigue and low motivation?
Yes, depression treatment can significantly improve chronic fatigue and low motivation. These symptoms often result from nervous system dysregulation and depleted neurotransmitter levels. At Reboot Vitality, our DSGB treatment resets the stress response system, while our peptide therapies (Semax, Selank, and Dihexa) and amino acid IV therapy work to restore the brain chemicals responsible for energy and motivation. Many patients report noticeable improvements in their energy levels and drive within weeks of beginning treatment.
What are common emotional and physical symptoms of depression?
Common emotional symptoms of depression include persistent sadness, loss of interest in activities, feelings of worthlessness, difficulty concentrating, and emotional numbness. Physical symptoms often include chronic fatigue, changes in appetite or weight, sleep disturbances (either insomnia or oversleeping), unexplained aches and pains, digestive issues, and headaches. Depression affects both mind and body because it involves changes in brain chemistry, hormone levels, and nervous system function. Our comprehensive depression treatment options address both the emotional and physical aspects of the condition.
Are there non-medication depression treatment options?
Yes, there are highly effective non-medication depression treatment options available. At Reboot Vitality, we specialize in treatments that target the biological root causes of depression without relying on traditional antidepressants. Our primary approach uses DSGB to reset the nervous system, combined with peptide therapy, amino acid IV therapy, Red light therapy, BrainTap mental reset programs, and hormone optimization. These treatments work together to restore brain chemistry, balance hormones, and regulate the stress response system naturally.
How is depression treatment different from burnout recovery?
While depression treatment and burnout recovery share some similarities (both often involve nervous system dysregulation and stress system overactivation), depression treatment focuses more specifically on mood regulation, neurotransmitter restoration, and addressing persistent emotional symptoms. Depression related to burnout and stress can develop when burnout is left untreated, but depression may also have other causes like trauma, hormone imbalances, or genetic factors. At Reboot Vitality, we tailor our treatment approach based on your specific condition, whether that's primarily burnout, depression, or both. Our DSGB treatment is effective for both conditions because it addresses the underlying nervous system dysfunction.
