Neurotransmitter Balance Profile

Meaning

The Neurotransmitter Balance Profile is a clinical assessment and conceptual model that evaluates the relative concentrations and functional ratios of key signaling molecules in the central and peripheral nervous systems. This profile includes excitatory neurotransmitters like glutamate and inhibitory ones such as GABA, alongside modulatory amines like dopamine and serotonin. Optimal cognitive function, mood stability, and sleep architecture depend critically on the precise, dynamic equilibrium among these chemical messengers. Deviations from an individual’s optimal profile can manifest as anxiety, fatigue, or impaired focus, requiring targeted neuromodulatory support.
