According to the American Chiropractic Association, three in four people who see a chiropractor describe their care as “very effective.” That’s a pretty good batting average. Whether you’ve been in an accident or are experiencing sudden back pain, a chiropractor can help you get back to your daily activities.
Surprisingly, most people don’t realize corrective chiropractic care extends well beyond your neck and spine. Chiropractors are trained to help patients assess their overall health. This includes neurological functioning, healthy pregnancies, immune system function, and more. Ready to have your mind blown? Here are seven amazing facts about chiropractic care.
1. It Boosts Brain Function
It’s true! Brain activity increases after an adjustment. That means better control over bodily functions, less inflammation, regulated hormones, improved muscle strength, and more.
2. It’s Great for Pregnant Women
Chiropractic care is not only safe but beneficial for pregnant women. When pregnant women receive adjustments, their uterus and pelvis are balanced. This creates more room for both mommy and baby, and can eliminate some of the lower back pain pregnant women endure.
3. It’s About More Than Back Pain
While chiropractors are the go-to for back and neck pain, a lot more can be treated than just that. You can also talk to your chiropractor about digestive issues, urinary tract issues, insomnia, anxiety, headaches, and more.
4. It Can Prevent Illness
Chiropractic care can help prevent illnesses. Remember that boost to brain activity and decreased inflammation? Well, all that is working to boost your immune system. Regular visits to your chiropractor can result in fewer visits relating to colds, the flu, and sore throats.
5. Chiropractors Don’t Crack Backs
When your chiropractor is performing an adjustment, the cracking sound you hear is a build-up of gas inside your joints- think of it like popping a soda can. That release of gas helps to alleviate discomfort-causing pressure and move your skeletal structure back to it’s optimal placement.
6. Chiropractors are Doctors
Somewhere along the line, people started thinking chiropractors were less trained than medical doctors. Chiropractors spend the same amount of time in school as MDs. But, while MDs go on to focus on pharmaceuticals and surgery, chiropractors go on to focus on specialties such as nutrition and neurology.
7. Chiropractors Can Order Blood Work
Because people don’t understand that chiropractors are “real” doctors, they don’t consider speaking to their chiropractors about blood panels and other annual checks. Blood work can help your chiropractor assess your current nutritional state, the health of your gut, your hormonal balance, and more.
