“Adrenal Fatigue” is coined but a more accurate diagnostic label is termed: HPA (hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal) axis D (dysregulation) or HPA-D for short.
Adrenal fatigue is an increasingly common yet sometimes controversial diagnosis used to indicate depletion of the adrenal glands. Cortisol is a hormone released by the adrenals for use in the regulation of blood pressure. In response to stress, the adrenals release greater amounts of cortisol. Adrenal fatigue is thought to occur when the adrenals have become overtaxed by excess cortisol release and can no longer produce levels of cortisol necessary for optimal body function.

Common symptoms of adrenal fatigue are thought to include:
fatigue, particularly upon waking, with intermittent “crashes” throughout the day
poor stress response and mood regulation
cognitive issues or “brain fog”
increased energy levels in the evenings
cravings for salty and sweet foods
unexplained body aches
overuse of caffeine and other stimulants
a compromised immune system
low blood pressure
loss of body hair
Less common symptoms are could include:
insomnia
frequent urination
loss of muscle tone
poor circulation
depression
weight gain
decreased libido
What causes Adrenal Fatigue?
There are four primary triggers for HPA-D:
Perceived stress: Emotional and psychological stress.
Glycemic dysregulation: High and low blood sugar, or alternating between the two.
Circadian disruption: Sleep deprivation, too much light exposure at night, not enough exposure to daylight, shift work, and frequent travel between time zones.
Inflammatory signaling: Inflammation caused by poor diet, physical inactivity or overtraining, gut dysfunction (SIBO, dysbiosis, gut infections, leaky gut, etc.), autoimmune disease, and many other modern sources of inflammation.
Some important things to note about adrenal fatigue:
Adrenal fatigue is not recognized the medical literature.But, that doesn’t mean that it’s a myth. In our experiences, adrenal fatigue is definitely a real thing. Here’s data to back that up: Fatigue makes up more than 20% of all guest contacts in primary care or 18 million visits in the US. 75-90% of primary care visits have been reported to be stress related. Conventional medicine is often at a loss of how to care for these guests.
What’s the difference between Adrenal Fatigue and Adrenal Insufficiency?
While the diagnosis of adrenal fatigue is not accepted by most doctors, adrenal insufficiency is a real medical condition that occurs when our adrenal glands cannot produce enough hormones. Adrenal insufficiency is caused by damage to the adrenal glands or a problem with the pituitary gland—a pea-sized gland in the brain that tells the adrenals to produce cortisol.
A person with adrenal insufficiency may be dehydrated, confused, or losing weight. He or she may feel weak, tired, or dizzy, and have low blood pressure. Other symptoms include stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
Adrenal insufficiency is diagnosed through blood tests, and can be treated with medications that replace the hormones the adrenals would normally make.

Dr. Jacoby is absolutely fantastic! He’s incredibly attentive and takes the time to answer all of my questions thoroughly, making sure I fully understand every step of the process. His support throughout my care has been outstanding — I always feel heard and well taken care of.
The office itself is very organized, and the entire appointment process is seamless from check-in to check-out. It’s clear the whole team runs a tight ship. Highly recommend Dr. Jacoby and the Stonelake Chiropractic team to anyone looking for excellent, patient-centered care!
I got in a car wreck and I was worried that I would have to scour all of Austin to find someplace that would help me, but this is the first place I looked up and they’ve been incredibly helpful and kind
I highly recommend Stonelake Chiropractic. Dr. Jacoby is very professional, the clinic is very clean, and he explains everything so clearly. Everyone there is very kind. I was in a car accident with my mom and my grandma, and thanks to the doctor, all three of us feel so much better.
What an awesome experience I just had. I met with Dr. Bergeron today for the first time and am thoroughly impressed with his professionalism and the warmness of his staff and facilities. I highly recommend StoneLake Chiropractic.
Dr. Jacoby has helped me tremendously. From carrying children to an occupation sitting in a car or at a desk, I needed some help. He identified the issue, set up a recovery plan and I feel so much better!
best customer service I’ve ever had! To start, they texted me when I prematurely hung up on their call before they answered. Made sure I was taken care of day of. The receptionist is super friendly and can tell she loves her job and is proud to work for a great doctor. Dr Jacoby has pictures of all his clients he has fixed everywhere in the office. Diagrams, machines, and other tools were used to show just how messed up I was. And the issues were not only said by him first from just feeling my spine, but shown and proven in these techniques and adjustments. This was a really cool experience and he even referred me to a great lawyer as I am here for a car accident. I paid nothing! I couldn’t recommend this place more.
Dr. Jacoby is the best chiropractor I have encountered. He is very thorough and takes his time with your specific need. He doesn’t try to give you a quick adjustment and rush you out of the door. If he recommends the spinal decompression machine, it is a must. The whole progress he recommended to me took me from barely being able to bend down and put my own shorts in to feel the bets I’ve felt in years.
Dr. Jacoby has created such a positive experience from the start. He genuinely cares, takes time to listen, and makes sure you feel comfortable and informed during each visit. You can tell he’s passionate about helping people improve their health and overall well being. I’ve already noticed positive changes and feel encouraged and confident moving forward in my journey. Highly recommend Stonelake Chiropractic!
"I highly recommend this chiropractor to anyone dealing with pain. This is the place to come if you're ready for relief. From my experience, be prepared to start feeling better!"
Doctor Jacoby knows what he is doing, he’s got very good determination of what’s happening with your spine, also he is very caring, detail oriented, explains everything about the process, and i always felt elevated after every visit. I’m glad i made the right decision by coming here, because i randomly found this place on google and i feel lucky. Also, there are good stretching technologies/machinery, and massage like room which feels very good and is very good perk to be included on every visit. I think everyone should do sessions with him to maintain a healthy spine before any issues arise
First time I ever been hurt enough to have to see a chiropractor, but I really felt the care and concern from the receptionist and the doctor. Hurt or not, I recommend any and everybody to check out Stonelake Chiropractor, you'll feel like another person. Thanks Stonelake! Look at the progress before, during the push to not giving up when I wanted instant gratification, but the struggle is real, I will always be greatful for Stonelake and going above and beyond is what God has put in their purpose, And I know He is pleased. Blessings, blessings and more blessings our Stonelake angels that spoils us rotten. Now I think I rather break some bones, than have babies. But let me think a little bit more. You're good at all the care you show up daily to do. Thank you so much. 🦵🦾✌️🥇🚬🚯♿

I’ve had an amazing experience after years of chronic neck pain and headaches due to a car accident + TMJ. Within one session I felt better and it’s only gone up from there!
Dr. Jacoby is fabulous! I walked in there as a 32yo woman barely able to walk after a wreck. He was very thorough in the examination process and explained everything along the way. It took one special visit that my bones finally cooperated and got into the right place and I FINALLY walked up right with very low pain and am no longer hobbling along or doubled over. The pain is still there and some days I almost get knocked to my face from the shooting pain but I’m very early in the healing process and completely trust in the process.<br><br>The same way that I trust in God, I trust in Stonelake Chiropractic to heal my body and help me to live and walk without pain again.<br><br>My healing journey isn’t over but I am so thankful to have a wonderful doctor and amazing Miss Dasa who gets everybody scheduled flawlessly and knows and greets everybody by name.
Dr. Jacoby is amazing- I truly can’t recommend him enough. His office is state-of-the-art, and he has an instinctive gift for knowing exactly what your body needs to heal.
Dr Jacoby and Mrs Dosha are amazing! I've been doing this little over a week and half and feeling ALOT better! I 100% !! Recommend Stonelake Chiropractor!
Dr. Jacoby Bergeron has been great. He has help me with the pain in my neck and back after my car accident. Dosa up front with scheduling is a great help. Thank you for helping me get back to normal again. Still a bit to go but it’s in the right direction. Thank you
I have experienced relief from my back pain with the aid of Stonelake Chiropractic. Dr. Bergeron explains everything clearly. Everyone is friendly and helpful. I have had a great experience and appreciate the help I have received.
Referred to Stonelake by my son and didn’t know what to expect as it has been years since going to a Chiropractor. Experiencing weakness in left leg and lower back pain for sometime. Hoping to avoid surgery. After several weeks both conditions have improved tremendously. Overall Practice is extremely professional and efficient. Highly recommended.
Dr. Jacoby is great! I have had chronic back pain from years of gymnastics and my lower back has never felt better! Also the staff is so friendly and helpful! Highly highly recommend
After being in pain Dr. Jacoby was very professional and efficient. He put me on his decompression table and then gave me the best chiropractic adjustment. I can now work a full day without being in pain.<br>Thanks Stonelake Chiropractic!
This is one of the best chiropractors in town! Excellent facilities and very friendly staff. Dossa at the front desk is the best and Dr. Jacoby always does a great job with adjustments.
This place has 5 stars for good reason. Amazing service, kind staff, and genuinely great treatment for any sort of pain you may have! 10/10 would recommend.
Stonelake is great! Dr Bergeron is super friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and gives the best adjustments! Don’t bother going anywhere else! Stonelake is the best in town!
The entire experience at this chiropractic office was excellent. The staff is welcoming, organized, and genuinely cares about patient comfort. The chiropractor really listens and explains things in a way that’s easy to understand. You can tell they genuinely care about helping you feel better, not just getting you in and out. Each visit has been consistently positive. I’ve noticed a real improvement and would absolutely recommend this office to anyone looking for quality care.
Dr. Jacob is the real deal, he really feels your pain, gives you an accurate and fast diagnosis and inmediately creates for you a therapy plan. Can't wait to get well soon....
I have pretty bad "tech neck" and as a result I get tension headaches pretty often. Dr. Jacoby was able to identify the issues and work with me to stop the pain. Dr. Jacoby is amazing!
Dr. Bergeron and staff have been great, I’m currently recovering from a car accident and my attorney sent me here. I can already feel my pain easing after just a few visits. The spinal decompression is a godsend. You never know how bad your back and neck really are until you see the x-rays and start the treatments. Thanks a ton!
Dr. Jacoby Bergeron has been amazing to work with, along with his assistant Dassa. He took the time to thoroughly explain everything and provided excellent care for my neck. The machines in his office have truly helped kick-start my healing journey, and I’ve already noticed a difference with my neck problems. I’m so thankful for Dr. Jacoby and highly recommend his care.
This is my first experience going to a chiropractor, and Stonelake Chiropractic has me hooked! The pain in my lower back and hip has significantly decreased, and I'm only halfway through my suggested appointments. Not only that, I truly enjoy my visits & even look forward to them. They are kind & helpful, and I always leave feeling glad I went in.
Dr. Jacoby is truly exceptional. From the very first visit, he made me feel comfortable, heard, and confident in my treatment plan. His knowledge, attention to detail, and genuine care for his patients really set him apart. I noticed improvement not only in my pain but also in my overall mobility and quality of life. He takes the time to explain everything and never rushes appointments. If you’re looking for a chiropractor who truly cares and delivers real results, Dr. Jacoby is the one.
