Every serious athlete understands the importance of recovery, but do you know about central nervous system fatigue? Dr. Drew Wagner at Wagner Chiropractic explains it perfectly: "Your central nervous system is your activation of going, lifting heavy, doing PRs, training, working towards your goal. That is a heavy reset."
When your nervous system gets stuck in overdrive, "your body will go into a fail-safe mode, and it will start eating itself, because it can't produce as much energy, because it's in survival mode." This is where overtraining becomes dangerous.
Dr. Wagner's approach combines sports chiropractic with the Zone Technique to reset your nervous system. "We're taking away the stress. We're taking away the interference. We're stimulating the spine and bringing everything back to baseline, back to balance."
As he points out, "Every pro athlete that we hear, they have a chiropractor. Every NFL team, every MLB team has a chiropractor on staff" because they understand the performance advantage proper spinal health provides.
Whether you're a powerlifter, bodybuilder, or competitive athlete, Dr. Wagner's goal is simple: "How can I help you get to the highest performance rates?"
