off the throttle.

A physician-formulated botanical blend — valerian, skullcap, catnip, and cramp bark — that targets the neurotransmitter and muscle pathways behind head, neck, jaw, and shoulder tension.

PROFESSIONAL GRADE · 66 CAPSULES · VALERIAN · SKULLCAP · EQUOL

Daily Tension Release bottle
GABA PATHWAY
125 mg Valerian root per serving

Calm the firing rate.

Valerian root modulates GABA-A receptor activity — the inhibitory system that governs how loudly the nervous system talks to itself. Relaxation without sedation when dosed for daytime use.

MUSCLE RELEASE
100 mg Wild Yam + Cramp Bark

For the muscles that won't let go.

Wild yam and cramp bark are traditional antispasmodic botanicals — supporting the smooth-muscle and skeletal-muscle release behind jaw clenching, tension headaches, and upper-back holding patterns.

STRESS RESPONSE
SNP targeted formulation

Designed around the genetics of tension.

Built to address the neurotransmitter and stress-response SNPs that keep the nervous system locked in fight-or-flight. (R,S)-Equol and magnesium ascorbate round out the antioxidant and hormonal layer.

MAY BENEFIT

Tension is a
nervous system problem.

01
Head & jaw tension
Valerian and skullcap modulate the central pathways behind tension-pattern headaches and jaw clenching.
02
Neck & shoulder release
Wild yam and cramp bark are traditional antispasmodics for the postural muscles that hold chronic load.
03
Stress-related tightness
Catnip leaf and skullcap are studied for their calming effect on nervous-system arousal and sympathetic drive.
04
Daily calm
A non-sedating botanical blend that supports parasympathetic tone without stimulating or drowsy side effects.
05
Nighttime unwinding
Valerian's relaxation profile makes the PM dose useful for patients who carry the day's tension into sleep.
06
Antioxidant support
Magnesium ascorbate supplies vitamin C alongside the magnesium many tense patients are functionally low in.

Questions

Frequently asked.

How is Daily Tension Release different from a muscle relaxer?
Prescription muscle relaxers suppress skeletal-muscle firing broadly and often cause sedation or cognitive dulling. This formula works upstream — modulating GABA tone, calming the stress axis, and supporting specific smooth-muscle pathways through botanical antispasmodics. Daytime relief without the grogginess.
When should I take it?
For daily support, take 2 capsules in the morning. For acute tension, take 2 capsules as needed — before a stressful meeting, at end of day, or before bed if tension is disrupting sleep. Do not exceed 4 capsules per day.
Will it make me drowsy?
Most people do not feel sedated at 2 capsules. Valerian and skullcap produce a calming effect rather than a pharmaceutical-level drowsiness, but sensitivity varies — test the morning dose on a low-demand day before relying on it for work or driving.
Can I take it with anxiety or sleep medications?
Consult your healthcare provider. Valerian, skullcap, and catnip can potentiate the effects of benzodiazepines, SSRIs, and sleep medications. They are not contraindicated, but stacking should be supervised by a practitioner who knows your full medication list.
Who is this formula designed for?
Adults with chronic muscle tension, stress-pattern headaches, jaw clenching, or a nervous system that struggles to downshift. Particularly useful for patients with neurotransmitter-related SNPs affecting GABA, serotonin, or catecholamine chemistry.
Is it safe long-term?
The formula is designed for daily support. Valerian is generally considered safe for extended use, though some practitioners recommend occasional breaks. Do not use during pregnancy or lactation without consulting a practitioner — several of the botanicals are not routinely recommended in those settings.

How methylation shapes mood, focus, and energy

Mood, focus, and energy aren't separate systems — they run on the same methyl groups. Here's how the methylation cycle underwrites neurotransmitter chemistry, mitochondrial output, and the difference between a good day and a flat one.

COMT polymorphisms and stress: the "warrior vs worrier" gene

COMT clears dopamine and norepinephrine from your prefrontal cortex. One common polymorphism changes the speed — and shapes how you perform under stress. Here's what the research shows.

SAM-e and the universal methyl donor: why it matters

SAM-e is the molecule your cells actually use to perform methylation — the universal methyl donor that sits downstream of B12, folate, and methionine. Here's what it does, the research behind it in mood and liver health, and where supplementation fits.
