Find Stress And Anxiety Relief With Chiropractic

When most people think of the chiropractor, they think of back and neck pain treatment. While we can certainly help with that, there are many more benefits of chiropractic care, including stress and anxiety relief. This month is Stress Awareness Month, so it’s a great time to get an understanding of how chiropractic care can help with stress and anxiety.

Stress and anxiety are caused by many different factors. Regular chiropractic adjustments can help ease anxiety by improving your quality of sleep, relieving spinal restrictions and misalignments, and helping to control blood pressure. Here’s what you need to know:

SLEEP

One of the factors that greatly affect anxiety and stress levels is quality of sleep. When your joints aren’t in proper alignment, your sleep can pay the price. Simple spinal adjustments can relieve tension and inflammation that cause discomfort and improve quality of sleep.

SPINAL MISALIGNMENTS

Spinal misalignment and restrictions can also contribute to stress and anxiety. When your spine is out of alignment, it affects the nerves surrounding the spine, which leads to tension and inflammation. This is problematic because all of the body is connected to the nervous system and the spine plays an integral role in that communication. With regular chiropractic care, proper communication is restored and information can pass smoothly between the brain and the body to locate and manage triggers for stress and anxiety.

BLOOD PRESSURE

Blood pressure is also a huge contributing factor to stress and anxiety levels, and chiropractic can help control it. The higher your blood pressure, the greater your anxiety may be. Chiropractic is a natural way to help control blood pressure. There are specific parts of the spine that affect different areas of the body, so a small and precise adjustment in the spine could lead to a decrease in blood pressure.
