What Is Sympathetic Dominance?
Sympathetic dominance occurs when our body’s “fight or flight” response, controlled by the sympathetic nervous system, outweighs the relaxation and restorative functions of the parasympathetic nervous system. This imbalance can lead to a range of physical and psychological symptoms, from increased heart rate to heightened anxiety and difficulty sleeping.
Why Does It Matter?
Balancing sympathetic and parasympathetic activity is crucial for overall well-being. Chronic sympathetic dominance isn’t just uncomfortable; it can contribute to serious health problems like hypertension, insomnia, and digestive issues. By managing sympathetic dominance, we can reduce our risk of these health conditions and promote a healthier, happier life.
The Impact on Health and Wellness
When our sympathetic nervous system is constantly in overdrive, it can have far-reaching effects on our health. Elevated stress levels can weaken the immune system, making us more susceptible to infections and illnesses. It can also lead to chronic inflammation, which is linked to a range of health problems, including heart disease, diabetes, and autoimmune disorders.
Finding Balance
By prioritizing stress management and taking steps to reduce sympathetic dominance, we can support our body’s natural healing processes and promote overall well-being. From improving sleep quality to enhancing immune function, finding balance within our nervous system is key to living a vibrant, healthy life.

Our family loves Jessica and her whole practice. We feel well cared for, seen and heard! In this day and age of quick doctor visits and high costs of care, the care we receive here is integral to wellness.
This practice is incredible! They are very friendly and welcoming. I was recommend to this practice from a relative and I couldn’t be happier. I’ve taken my son here twice so far and they have been great with him. What I also like is that it is a judgement free office. They respect my decisions regarding my son and always give me the best advice and service. They’ve answered all of my questions and concerns as well as took their time with us during our visit. Highly recommend!
My first time with the Oakbrook office and staff has been the kind of experience I’ve longed for. Although I have only been there twice(in one week), it’s the most genuine communication I’ve had from a doctor’s office. I’ve been searching for a practice that treats our family as more than just a number, and I’m truly grateful for the care and attention to detail they’ve provided. The follow-up phone calls and the extra check-up were instrumental in demonstrating their practice’s excellent understanding of bedside manners and true thoughtfulness that his sickness matters.
We love Well-Rooted Pediatrics. On every visit I feel like Jessica listens to my concerns and cares about my opinions on things regarding my kids. She looks at the whole child and treats the body from the inside out while still knowing there’s a time and place for medicine. With this approach I absolutely trust her and the care she provides for my four kids. Highly recommend, your family will love her too!!
