2026 Workshop Programme

This practitioner-focused talk explores how hormesis can be used as a clinical tool to build resilience and improve patient outcomes. It reframes stress as a dose-dependent signal'highlighting when it drives adaptation versus when it contributes to dysfunction'and shows how to assess a patient's adaptive capacity using real clinical data. Attendees will learn how to integrate Organic Acids Testing, cortisol rhythm analysis, and key inflammatory markers to gauge metabolic, neuroendocrine, and immune resilience, and how to practically 'dose' lifestyle stressors like exercise, fasting, and thermal exposure. The session offers a clear, test-guided framework to personalise interventions, avoid overloading depleted patients, and strategically build adaptive reserve for long-term health.
