You might not be aware that constantly being stressed could take a toll on your overall health. There are three main types of stress: chemical, emotional, and physical. Fortunately, chiropractic care can help alleviate stress. Learn how chiropractic provides natural stress relief & eases the side effects of stress.

Types of Stress and Their Side Effects

CHEMICAL STRESS

A chemical stressor is any chemical in your life that is harmful to your health and wellness. For example, our bodies can be affected by ingesting medications, alcohol, processed foods, and environmental toxins. While minimal amounts may not be harmful, prolonged consumption may damage the nervous system and ultimately harm your health.

EMOTIONAL STRESS

The emotional and mental health of an individual is essential to their wellbeing. To visualize this, picture a person who has had a long, stressful day. It's not like they walk confidently into a room with proper posture. Instead, a person who is stressed tends to round their shoulders forward with a look of exhaustion. Financial problems, family problems, and problems at work are some common types of emotional stressors. Ultimately, a buildup of stress can result in muscle tension, misalignment and eventually physical stress.

PHYSICAL STRESS

It is common for people not to realize how much stress they are under. Physical stress can be caused by various factors, including injuries, poor posture, and sedentary lifestyles. These situations can put a strain on your spine and lead to misalignment. Which can cause constant pain, sleep deprivation, and decreased overall wellbeing. Through chiropractic care, physical stress can be reduced by adjusting misalignments.

NATURAL STRESS RELIEF WITH CHIROPRACTIC CARE

Stress is a significant cause of misalignments in the spine. Tension in the neck and back caused by stress can misalign the spine and lead to various health issues. These misalignments lead to incorrect communication between the nervous system and the body. Chiropractic adjustments can counteract this. A chiropractic adjustment can reduce the effects of stress while simultaneously increasing nervous system function. No matter what type of stress you're experiencing, chiropractic care can help you to improve your overall health.
