Holiday Digestion With Chiropractic

The holiday season can take a toll on your gastrointestinal health. Combined with holiday stress, rich foods that are high in sugar and fat can wreck your digestive system. However, there is no need to worry because chiropractic care can benefit your digestive system through the season.

CHIROPRACTIC CAN BENEFIT YOUR DIGESTIVE SYSTEM

Chiropractic care is not only beneficial for joint mobility but can also help with gastrointestinal problems. In fact, your digestive system and nervous system are linked, meaning your spine can affect your digestion. If there is a misalignment within the spinal column, the central nervous system may not be able to send signals to your digestive system. Chiropractors can correct spinal subluxations and misalignments with adjustments. As a result, this will help your nervous system function properly, which may alleviate your digestive issues and other body pains.  

HOLIDAY STRESS CAN POSE A THREAT

As much as we love the holidays, they can also be very stressful. There are many reasons for this, including lack of time, gift-giving pressure, financial worries, and family gatherings. The effects of stress on the body are many, including digestive issues such as bloating and cramping, constipation, diarrhea, and weight gain or loss. Even though chiropractic cannot eliminate your stress triggers, it can help your body deal with them. By regularly adjusting the spine, our chiropractors can eliminate most of the tension that builds up. By removing the stress, the body will not react to these triggers as strongly. A time like the holidays is perfect to experience chiropractic benefits.
