Treat Yourself with Chiropractic Care!
The holiday season fills us with peace, love, and joy…but it can also be stressful. After spending to much time and energy and ensuring that you’re loved ones enjoyed the holidays, it’s time for a little self-care. Here’s why you should treat yourself to chiropractic care.
BACK PAIN, NECK PAIN, AND SO MUCH MORE
Chiropractic care may be all about your spine, but you can benefit in more ways than just back and neck pain relief. Your spinal column is made up of 24 independent vertebrae and they are what allows your body to twist, move, and bend through all the motions of your busy day. It also protects and encases the delicate central nervous system that coordinates and controls every muscle, tissue, and organ in your body. This is why we believe the first step to an active and healthy lifestyle is a properly functioning spine.
JOINT DYSFUNCTIONS
When just two or more vertebrae aren’t functioning as they should be, a misalignment or subluxation occurs. These subluxations are joint dysfunctions that can cause pain, decreased mobility, discomfort, and many other uncomfortable symptoms or conditions. Joint dysfunctions often go unnoticed and can cause miscommunications between your body and brain.
Eventually, joint dysfunctions in the spine may lead to symptoms in other joints or parts of the body. These symptoms are your body’s only way of letting you know that something isn’t right. Unfortunately, simply not being in pain isn’t enough to indicate health. By the time the symptoms and pain appear, the issue may have been present for months or even longer. Fortunately, you can help prevent these types of conditions with regular chiropractic care.
