Chiropractic Care and Stress Relief

Chiropractic care can help to relive stress. It can help a patient’s body function optimally, and when the body is functional a patient is better able to deal with stress. There are also studies that show that stress can manifest negative physical consequences within the body, and many of those manifestations can cause pain and soreness. Stress is incredibly common, and it’s completely normal to feel, at times, overwhelmed. Stress can cause fatigue and can even develop into depression. Physically, symptoms of stress can include: respiratory issues, which increase the rate of breathing, possibly causing hyperventilation or a panic attack; the muscles in the body can tense, causing migraine headaches and other physical pains and soreness, including back pain; the endocrine system can also react to stress by releasing cortisol, which is a hormone released by the body as a counteragent to stress, and cortisol in continuous quantities has a negative impact on the body, possibly even leading to the development of chronic conditions such as diabetes and heart disease.

Regular chiropractic care will help to alleviate the pains and soreness associated with stress (Not to mention the many physical benefits that happen when the body is in alignment and functioning optimally). Your chiropractor at Larson Chiropractic can adjust your body to relieve the restrictions and possible joint issues that may inhibit the body, and inhibit the body’s communication systems.
