If you feel wired but tired, overwhelmed by simple tasks, or like your body just isn’t bouncing back anymore — you’re likely experiencing the physiological effects of chronic stress. Burnout isn’t just in your head. It’s in your nervous system, your hormones, and your energy metabolism.

At Front Range Functional Medicine & Chiropractic, we help patients recover from burnout by rebuilding their ability to regulate stress, restore energy, and re-engage with life.

What is Burnout Really Telling You?

Chronic stress isn’t something your body can just “push through.” Over time, it drains your recovery capacity — flattening hormone rhythms, suppressing metabolism, and over-activating the nervous system.

We commonly see burnout linked to:

  • Elevated cortisol and flattened stress hormone rhythms
  • Slowed thyroid function and reduced metabolic rate
  • Sleep dysfunction and circadian rhythm disruption
  • Nutrient depletion (magnesium, sodium, potassium, B vitamins)
  • Nervous system dysregulation and parasympathetic under-activation

Burnout means your recovery system is maxed out. Our job is to help you rebuild it.

Common Symptoms Associated with Stress & Burnout

  • Waking up tired no matter how much sleep you get
  • Afternoon crashes or dependence on caffeine
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or emotionally flat
  • Trouble winding down or falling asleep at night
  • Brain fog and loss of motivation or drive
  • Frequent colds or slow immune recovery
  • Loss of interest in things you used to enjoy

What to Expect in Your Recovery Journey

Step 1: Comprehensive Recovery Evaluation

We assess your nervous system tone, stress history, sleep quality, metabolic markers (like temp/pulse), and recovery patterns — to map out where your system is stuck.

Step 2: Targeted Recovery Strategy

Your plan may include breathwork, movement prescription, circadian support, metabolic nourishment, soft tissue therapies, and nervous system regulation — without overwhelming protocols or more to “do.”

Step 3: Ongoing Progress & Support

All care is delivered through structured Recovery Packages, blending Comprehensive (60-minute) and Targeted (30-minute) sessions.

You’ll also receive access to our Recovery Portal — with nervous system tools, recovery exercises, and stress support strategies to help you build capacity between visits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the same as therapy or counseling?
No. While emotional health matters, we focus on the physiological side of stress recovery — nervous system, hormones, energy, and healing capacity.

What if I already meditate and still feel burnt out?
That’s common. Many people are doing the “right things” — but their system needs a deeper reset. We address the underlying biology, not just the habits.

Do you offer one-off sessions?
No. We offer care exclusively through Recovery Packages so that each step builds on the last and creates lasting results.

Burnout Isn’t a Character Flaw. It’s a Recovery Problem — and It Can Be Fixed.

Located in Westminster, CO, we help patients rebuild their energy, stress resilience, and health from the inside out.
