Chiropractic care is centered around the belief that the spine and nervous system are closely connected. Here's how it may help the nervous system:

🧠 1. Reducing Nerve Interference
Chiropractors perform spinal adjustments to correct misalignments (called subluxations). These misalignments may put pressure on spinal nerves, potentially disrupting the communication between the brain and body. Adjustments aim to relieve this pressure, helping restore proper nerve flow.

🌀 2. Improving Autonomic Nervous System Function
Some research suggests chiropractic adjustments may influence the autonomic nervous system, which controls involuntary functions like heart rate, digestion, and respiration. For example:

Adjustments to the upper cervical spine may affect vagal tone (linked to the parasympathetic system), promoting relaxation and recovery.

Spinal alignment might help balance the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems, potentially reducing stress responses.

💪 3. Enhancing Brain-Body Communication
A properly aligned spine allows for clearer and more efficient signals between the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). This can lead to:

📌Better coordination and reflexes

📌Improved body awareness

📌Reduced pain signaling

🧩 4. Pain Reduction and Neuromuscular Control
By alleviating pressure on irritated nerves or muscles, chiropractic care may:

📌Decrease chronic pain and inflammation

📌Improve movement patterns and reduce muscle guarding

📌Help conditions like sciatica, neuropathy, or tension headaches

🧠 What Is a Subluxation? And Why Should You Care? 🦴

💡 A subluxation occurs when one or more of the bones in your spine (vertebrae) move out of proper alignment. This can interfere with your nervous system, causing pain, reduced mobility, muscle tension, and even affecting how your organs function. 😮

Here’s why it matters:
➡️ Your spine protects your spinal cord, which is the communication highway between your brain and body.
➡️ When a vertebra is misaligned, that communication can get blocked or distorted.
➡️ The result? Discomfort, decreased performance, and even symptoms you might not expect—like headaches, fatigue, or digestive issues.

✅ Chiropractic adjustments gently correct these misalignments to restore proper function and help your body heal itself naturally. It’s not just about back pain—it’s about whole-body wellness!

Do you have questions or are wondering if a subluxation could be affecting you? 📞 Give us a call or send us a message—we’re here to help you feel your best from the inside out. Abbotsford 715-223-6308 or Medford 715-748-4433.
