What Exactly Is a Chiropractic Adjustment?

With the busy lives we lead, stress can come in many forms. Whether it is physical, chemical, or emotional stressors, they can all have an affect on us. Your posture, work deadlines, a family crisis, poor nutrition and more can cause stress.

All of these stressors can put a strain on your nervous system. Our chiropractic care is designed to help give your nervous system what it needs to be functioning optimally again after those stressors have attacked it.

Your Body’s Natural Protection

Your nervous system has a built-in protective mechanism that will make your spine tighten and lose its range of motion when under stress, also causing your muscles to tighten in order to further protect the spine and nerves. This begins the cycle of spinal degeneration, where your spine can form spurs and pressure is put on your discs. Medical doctors refer to this condition as osteoarthritis.

The Many Benefits of Care

Chiropractic care helps prevent spinal degeneration by releasing that pressure on the vertebrae caused by that tightening mechanism. This will:

  • Improve your range of motion
  • Increase flexibility
  • Decrease pain
  • Reduce interference in your nervous system

Center For Healthy Living would love to help you fight off the stress in your life through chiropractic care! (403) 769-0093
