5 ways that chiropractic care can benefit you!
1. Postural alignment
It’s quite widely known now that chiropractic care can really benefit your posture. In order to measure this, we do a postural analysis within your New Patient consultation where we place objective markers. Following your care plan, we re-measure this and often see vast improvements in posture. Chiropractic care helps posture as it allows for increased movement throughout the spine, reducing muscle tightness and tension, and improving all round flexibility. Good posture helps with so much, including reducing headaches, neck pain, and shoulder pain!
2. Easing pain
Chiropractic adjustments work by getting movement through specific restricted joints of the spine, which are causing inflammation, irritating nerves, and causing pain. By adjusting these joints, the pressure on the nerves and the irritation is reduced, allowing the inflammation to heal and the pain to decrease. We normally advise other factors such as rehabilitative exercises and massage therapy to support this.
3. Better mobility
In the same way chiropractic adjustments help with reducing pain by increasing movement in the joints, the same technique also helps to increase overall mobility and flexibility within the spine. This helps to prevent injury but also allows you to progress in your sport or hobby without pain or dysfunction.
4. Improved energy and sleep
When spinal tension or inflammation is healing effectively, we tend to see an overall improvement in sleep and energy. While there are limited studies on this, in our personal experience a lot of patients report noticing that their sleep has improved and they feel more energised since starting chiropractic care.
5. Enhanced mood
With all of the above, it’s easy to see why you would feel in a better mood when you feel like you have good posture, reduced pain, notice you move and sleep better and just feel more energised! A lot of patients report that they feel better in themselves or even their partner or family member note that they are overall happier.
