Adrenal gland treatment is a naturopathic medicine subspecialty that aims to restore adrenal gland function and improve your quality of life.
The adrenal glands are two small organs located above your kidneys. They release hormones, like cortisol and adrenaline, when you feel stressed or anxious. This is perfectly normal, but if you suffer from chronic stress or anxiety, it may cause your adrenal glands to work overtime.
If your adrenal glands are triggered multiple times daily, they can burn out and stop functioning properly. This increases your risk of more serious health problems and may affect your energy levels and mood.

Dr. Cavaiola reviews your medical records and asks about your symptoms, including when they started and if they’re worse at certain times of the day, like when you first wake up in the morning.
Diagnosing adrenal fatigue is challenging because there isn’t a specific test for it. Dr. Cavaiola completes a physical exam and orders lab work, including blood tests and urinalysis. He uses blood tests to assess the levels of certain hormones, like cortisol and adrenaline.

Dr. Cavaiola treats adrenal gland problems, like adrenal gland fatigue and adrenal insufficiency, using a holistic, integrative approach.
Although hormone imbalances typically require prescription medication, Dr. Cavaiola optimizes results through healthy lifestyle changes. He might suggest:
