You already know the benefits of chiropractic care when it comes to pain relief, stress management, and just plain feeling better. But what if you’re suffering from digestive issues? Chiropractic can also help you enjoy better gut health, especially if you suffer from chronic conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
Think of chronic digestive issues the same way you’d think of any other sort of pain. If symptoms persist beyond a day or two, it likely means there’s a larger issue. Having stomach problems for multiple days could mean that the culprit is more than just overeating or overestimating your tolerance for spice.
No matter the stomach problem, the symptoms will likely be very similar. Notable signs of digestive issues include abdominal cramping and pain, nausea, heartburn, bloating, gas, and changes to bowel movements. If one or more of these symptoms persist beyond a couple of days, talk to your primary care physician and your chiropractor.
When you have a condition like GERD or IBS, you’ll likely need to approach treatment from multiple angles, including eating a healthier diet and being more active if possible. Chiropractic care can also be a helpful tool for building better gut health. Regular adjustments can help promote a healthier central nervous system. The central nervous system helps control and regulate digestion, and better digestion means less severe symptoms and better gut health overall.
Chiropractic care is one of the many tools you can use in building better gut health and enjoying better health and well-being overall.
