Spring may have just begun, but we’re already thinking about allergy season. As enjoyable as spring is — the warmer weather, the sunshine, more time outside — seasonal allergies can really put a damper on things. Here’s how chiropractic can help manage your symptoms.
SEASONAL ALLERGY SYMPTOMS
For those that suffer from allergies, symptoms can range from mild to severe. It all just depends on the body and how it reacts to the environment’s allergens. The most common seasonal allergy symptoms we treat patients for include:
- Sneezing
- Runny nose
- Itchy eyes
- Congestion
When you experience these symptoms, they can be a huge interruption in your daily life and that’s when it is time to seek help. At Wills Chiropractic, our experienced chiropractors may be able to help you find natural allergy relief.
TRADITIONAL ALLERGY TREATMENTS
Traditional treatments can be helpful for allergy sufferers, but the issue with them is that they only mask the symptoms, rather than treat the underlying issues that are actually causing the symptoms. Some also come with side effects including drowsiness and upset stomach. That’s why whenever possible, we suggest going with a natural treatment (like chiropractic care!).
CHIROPRACTIC CARE FOR ALLERGIES
Your nervous system is the control center of your body, including your immune system. Allergic reactions — including seasonal allergy symptoms — are essentially an overreaction by your body to the environment. Even though allergies are something many people deal with, there is something you can do about it. By focusing on improving the health of the nervous system with chiropractic adjustments, you may find that your body reacts differently to the environment it is in, including allergies!
Regular chiropractic adjustments remove joint restrictions and dysfunctions from the spine, meaning your nervous system can function optimally. This causes your body to respond better to environmental allergies so you can feel better and suffer less.
