Is It Chiropractic You’re After?

Chiropractic is a form of manual therapy that focuses on disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system. Due to the impact a chiropractor can have on the nervous system, this alternative form of healthcare is able to help the function of the body as a whole rather than it’s individual pieces.

Take the Vagus Nerve as an example. As only two of the 7 trillion+ nerves in the body, the Vagus Nerve has the ability to impact our:

  • Vocal Cords

  • Swallowing

  • Heart Rate

  • Digestive System

  • Fight/Flight Response

All of which have a large impact on various conditions that affect how we go through our daily lives. If this one puzzle piece isn’t quite right, we could notice things like:

  • Hoarseness

  • Reflux (GERD)

  • Bloating

  • Migraines

  • Dizziness

  • POTS

  • Anxiety

All of which could stem from one single puzzle piece in a 7 trillion piece puzzle. When you look at it this way, there’s no question that the body is a complicated thing.

Although Chiropractic can be helpful for a variety of issues, including back pain, neck pain, the reality is that by impacting the nervous system, we as chiropractors are able to facilitate so much more within the body than just assist with the aches and pains (although that is something we can help with).

How Chiropractic Works

Chiropractors use a variety of techniques to adjust the spine and other joints in the body. These adjustments can help to:

  • Improve nerve function  

  • Reduce inflammation

  • Improve blood flow

  • Promote healing

Other Benefits of Chiropractic Care

In addition to the physical benefits of chiropractic care, there are also a number of mental and emotional benefits. Chiropractic can help to:

  • Reduce stress

  • Improve mood

  • Improve sleep

  • Boost the immune system
