Chiropractic + wellness care.

There are several reasons why wellness care is so important.. Because of that little thing or in some cases a big thing called STRESS.

Everyday we all come intact with stress in several different forms. The different ways that we can experience this stress is through: physical, chemical, and emotional elements. Physical stress can include big traumas and little traumas. Big traumas are things like car accidents, slips and falls, sports or exercise related injuries, and other major incidents. Little traumas include things that we do every day, like sit at a desk, look down at our phones, carry a heavy backpack or purse, and even labor at work. Chemical stress includes toxins we are exposed to and can be as simple as the food and drink we put into our bodies, medications, and even the air we breathe. Emotional stress can come from an argument we had, the workload we experience, family life, dealing with finances, and other daily occurrences that affect our mood. Stress is something we deal with, for better or worse, every day and many experts are exploring the mind-body connection and how to mitigate the detrimental effects stress can have on both. As a profession whose core philosophy is about optimizing the nervous system and brain-body communication, chiropractic is viewed as a lifestyle that promotes whole-body health and wellness.

Research is quickly catching up to what chiropractors have known for years. It is progressively being shown that chiropractic offers many measurable health benefits to people regardless of the presence or absence of symptoms. A number of body systems can see increased function, including improvements in respiration, range of motion, heart rate variability and autonomic function, endocrine function, cardiovascular function, digestive function, immune function, muscle strength and overall athletic ability of otherwise “healthy” or “normal” individuals. Other studies have documented statistically significant improvements in blood pressure, neurocognitive functions like reaction-time and information processing, visual acuity, stress and reproductive hormones, healing/recovery time, general health of senior citizens, and reduced labor times of pregnant women.

Specific, scientific, gentle chiropractic care is for more than just neck, back, and other musculoskeletal complaints and many families are taking advantage of the benefits of wellness care to add life to their years.
