Here are a few reasons why you should consider getting adjusted by a chiropractor!
1. Maintain a healthy brain and nervous system!
Your body's tissues and organs are connected to the spinal cord by nerves and connected to your brain. Your body uses this information to adjust to the environment by sending signals down to your tissues and organs. Your brain function changes as your posture and spine changes. Adjustments directly affect brain function and can be beneficial to your nervous system.
2. Pain Reliever
Back pain and nausea are common symptoms of pregnancy. Some women experience no symptoms at all, but others experience hunched posture, back pain, headaches, or nausea. A chiropractor can help alleviate these pain-related conditions by adjusting the spine to relieve tension and discomfort.
With more than 14,000 chiropractor practices in the United States, there are many options available for pregnant women who want to seek relief from pain and discomfort.
Chiropractic care is safe during pregnancy and delivery. It can also help relieve some of the pressures that come with having a growing baby inside you. So if you're experiencing any kind of pain during pregnancy, it would be wise to see a chiropractor to help relieve it as soon as possible.
3. Helping your baby come out the correct way!
Research shows that chiropractic care can help reduce the incidence of breech births by providing chiropractic care to pregnant women, particularly near their due date. Many women report childbirth was much easier than they expected, and credit their chiropractic care.
4. Diabetes Chiropractic Help
The human body has a natural addiction to sugar, which is why so many people struggle with intense cravings for carbohydrates. A person’s internal chemistry is responsible for the craving for sugar, and the result is a need to eat more and more in order to feel satisfied. Sugar addiction can lead to weight gain, fatigue, mood swings, digestive issues, and even teeth decay.
As a chiropractor treating patients with chronic pain and health conditions, it is important for me to know how I can help them. This knowledge includes understanding how the body processes sugar and how it affects moods and emotions.
5. Lowering Your Blood Pressure
Blood pressure is the force of blood in the arteries of your body. When the force of blood flowing through your arteries is too high, it can increase your chances of having a heart attack or stroke. High blood pressure can also damage your arteries and make it harder for the heart to pump blood to your body.
By reducing your risk of high blood pressure, chiropractic care can help you lower your risk for a number of cardiovascular diseases.
For example, chiropractic care can help lower your risk for cardiovascular disease by improving overall blood flow and circulation. It can also reduce stress and anxiety, which have been linked to high blood pressure. Pregnancy-related high blood pressure is more common if you already have high blood pressure. The National Library of Medicine shows that chiropractic care is promising for hypertension but more studies need to be done.
