Let’s get this straight from the beginning. Chiropractic is all about looking after your nervous system and in specific your spine.
Your spine protects your spinal-cord and nerves that come out of it and if you have a problem in your spine that is causing a neurological deficit or surplus from a misaligned vertebrae called a subluxation.
Chiropractic may help. We are very well known for neck pain and low back pain and sciatica headaches because these are the most common problems. But if your nervous system controls all of your body and Chiropractic can possibly help other things too.. but let’s talk about some lesser known problems.
Let’s start with sleeping problems. As you know + have heard me say before, you sleep 1/3 of your life so making sure you have good sleeping posture is essential. Using a correct pillow + mattress is vital but also having chiropractic adjustments. When your spine is out of alignment it can affect the way you sleep. The posture that you sleep and of course if you’re uncomfortable you may not get as good sleep.
Subluxations or misalignments of your spine, which may be the result of injury, poor posture, bad habits, work, diet or even genetics can be corrected or improved with chiropractic.
The goal is to correct misalignments in the neck and upper body which may improve the muscle integrity of the pharynx and larynx, or a kyphosis of the neck may restrict respiration or contribute to airway blockage. Chiropractors use spinal adjustment to return the nervous system to normal, relaxing muscles, reducing tension, and promote proper breathing which may even help people with sleep apnea.
Next thing we can help with is shoulder pain, one of my staff had constant should pain before coming to work here. After years of cortisone injections and relying on pain killers to get through the day. She started here and after seeing her X-rays she found out that her neck was translated to the right and also had a reverse curve in her neck. With this particular problem the muscles in her neck and shoulder were over compensating which gave her should pain. She has been with us for 3 years now and hasn’t had shoulder pain for about 2 years since she gets regular adjustments and does spinal rehab. It worked for her and every case is different but maybe you know someone who has trying everything and maybe this could be the next thing that could help them..
Chiropractic can help with the participation in sport, the recovery of sport injuries, and an instance of my son taking your abilities to the next level. Because just like a car needs regular maintenance or repairs we looked after properly a car will perform better and so will your body. And if you want that edge over your competitors in Chiropractic has been known to help with getting the best out of your body. Preventing injuries. And allowing you to be the best person you can whether you’re an athlete or not
