Chronic Stress Load Management

Meaning

Chronic Stress Load Management is the clinical and behavioral practice of systematically assessing, mitigating, and building resilience against the sustained physiological and psychological demands placed upon the neuroendocrine system. This practice is essential for preventing the maladaptive hormonal responses that arise from prolonged activation of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis. Effective management aims to restore diurnal cortisol rhythm and reduce the cumulative allostatic load, thereby safeguarding overall metabolic and hormonal health.
