The Perky Chronic Fatigue and A Reason Why

By | Benefits of Chiropractic, Ear Infections

The Perky Chronic Fatigue and A Reason Why

Chronic fatigue likes to wreak havoc on our society.  Chronic fatigue is something that tends to just creep up on some, while others will get hit by it right away.  If your body is overworking and firing on all cylinders for a prolonged period of time, eventually your going to need a rest.  Enter your adrenal glands!  Imagine if you hit your “funny bone.”  You will immediately have a weird sensation and might put pressure on your “funny bone” or start to move it back and forth real quick.  What you are doing is suppressing the response by putting movement in the area (proprioception) and masking what you did.  Your adrenal glands have enough time to release some hormones to further suppress the inflammation.  Now, just imagine if your continually hitting your “funny bone” over and over again.  Those adrenal glands are going to be doing some heavy work.  If your body is like that “funny bone” being continually struck over and over again, your body cannot heal / adapt from the stress placed on it.  Talk about chronic fatigue, jeez la weezy.

When your nerve system has stress placed on it: such as chemical stress (medication), physical stress (big brothers), and emotional stress (public speaking), these will place a toll on you body.  So, in order to combat chronic fatigue, just avoid wrestling with your bigger brother, public speaking, and taking medication.  OK, it is not that simple.  When your master control system recognizes that stress is placed on it, those adrenal glands are going to be activated to release hormones.  Any types of stress on your body for a prolonged period of time = over stimulation of adrenal glands.  Over stimulation of adrenals for a period of time would definitely caused chronic fatigue.  As a chiropractor, we check your nerve system for dysfunction (stress) and adjust if necessary.  Have your nerves checked for dysfunction.  Overcome chronic fatigue with a healthy functioning nerve system!

Ear Infections And Chiropractic Care

By | ADHD, Benefits of Chiropractic, Ear Infections

Ear Infections And Chiropractic Care

Ear infections and chiropractic care go together like peanut butter and jelly.  We are trying to be as simple and to the point as we can possibly be here.  Ear infections begin by disturbances in your E-tubes (Eustachian tubes) not properly working.  Then, as a consequence, fluid will begin to build up in the tubes, which then results in pain and discomfort.  If something is not working correctly in the body, who do you blame first?  The nerve system!  Ear infections and chiropractic care are well versed due to the dysfunction that the E-tube plays.  Specific chiropractic adjustments restore proper function to the E-tube, thus allowing the tubes to work correctly.  Ear infections and chiropractic care will allow your child to heal and overcome by restoring proper function.  This, in turn, will limit the duration of the “infection,” and decrease the susceptibility of them occurring in the future.

Chronic and re-occurring ear infections are not NORMAL!  Your child’s body is not healing and overcoming if ear infections keep occurring.  Ear infections and chiropractic care allow continual proper functionality for the long-run.  When your child’s E-tube is not draining correctly, there will be a buildup of fluid that can be virus related.  So, if the fluid is virus related, antibiotics are going to do what?  Well, there are adverse reactions from antibiotics as well.  Sometimes ear infections are not even infections!  What about tubes in the ears?  Tubes in the ears are not allowing your child to heal and overcome.  Just simply give your child a chance to adapt and overcome with chiropractic adjustments.  Ear infections paired with chiropractic care involves no such surgery, cutting, or medication.  Specific adjustments allow your child to function at optimal potential.

Chiropractic Is Natural Healing

By | ADHD, Benefits of Chiropractic

Chiropractic Is Natural Healing

Natural healing comes in the form of doing what is best for your body.  Natural healing is always within normal limits.  Chiropractic is natural healing.  No medication, no surgery, no outside substance is required for natural healing.  So, in our society we apply and use band-aids for multiple reasons and for unknown reasons.  These band-aids come in the form of medications, removal of needed structures (surgery), and substances that are just not necessary for what they say they do.  Just imagine if I cut myself.  The band-aid is not providing some miracle cure,  my body is just healing itself.  Unfortunately for most, your body just needs TIME to heal (something we do not have the patience for).  How does my body heal to it’s utmost potential?  With a healthy functioning nerve system of course.

This is not made up stuff.  We as a society have a pre-conceived notion that we need to take something for our body to heal.  When I sustain the cut, my brain sends messages to release proteins in my blood stream to form a scab.  The scab protects the area from exposure while your brain is continually sending messages throughout your entire body to regenerate millions of cells that are damaged.  Your brain is sending messages via NERVES to areas of dysfunction.  Nothing is required of this process, no protein-enzyme blueberry smoothie, no drugs, no cutting of any kind.  Your nerve system is your master system.  If nerve dysfunction is present than you cannot heal to your utmost potential.  A chiropractic adjustment does not give or take anything away from your body, nor does it give you anything.  It removes STRESS on the nerve system, which in turn allows your body to stay connected!  Natural healing takes time.  A connected nerve system allows proper healing.

Hyperactivity In Children – A Chiropractic Thought

Hyperactivity In Children – A Chiropractic Thought

How do I know if my child needs chiropractic care?  Do hyperactivity and chiropractic share a missing link?  Hyperactivity in children is a growing concern for many, and is usually just “taken care of” with some sort of drug.  The possibility of having a disconnected nerve system does not respond well to drugs, you will have accomplished behavioral changes that are not within your child’s normal parameters.  One early sign that a nerve system is out of balance is, and can be, hyperactivity.  There is no drug that is required to suppress or have mind altering developmental disorders.  A clear and connected nerve system will allow your child’s activity to be suppressed naturally.  Just think, if your body’s master control system was not clearly connected to everything your body does, you would be a little upset.  I dare say your body might even “accelerate” it’s overall functionality just to make sure you are in deed functioning!

Hyperactivity in children is a growing concern due to the alternatives that are available.  A nerve system that is young and still developing has multiple windows of opportunity.  Chiropractic is a safe and effective way to help hyperactivity.  Food additives, brain injuries, gene pool, and environmental factors are all valid variables.  If you have done the research you almost there!  If you would like to learn another way, chiropractic is the answer!  Treating hyperactivity with stimulants is a cookie-cutter formula.  Chiropractic sees that every spine is different.  When a nerve system is disconnected, people have different ways of showing this.  One possible way is hyperactivity.  To allow your child to have a clear and functioning nerve system means to allow your child to be healthy.  We check your child for possible nerve system dysfunction and adjust them if necessary.  Healthy nerves = Healthy life!

The Quick “Fix” Of A Disc Bulge

By | ADHD, Benefits of Chiropractic

The Quick “Fix” Of A Disc Bulge

This entire premise of a quick “fix” for a disc bulge is very condescending.  Disc bulge, disc herniation, disc out place, disc fixated, whatever or however you try to spin it, more than likely will have the same outcome.  One of the quick fixes currently available is to have a lumbar fusion.  Lumbar fusion will result in joining the lumbar vertebrae above and below the disc bulge.  So, the areas above and below the lumbar fusion will be working over-time to compensate for the fusion.  One could have a discectomy, which would completely remove the disc all together.  One could replace the disc bulge with an artificial disc, just like a hip replacement.  One can administer cortisone shots to their body, which will turn you into a super-hero for a short while, but possibly make things worse for you in the long run.

It seems like there are lots of options for the quick “fix” when it comes to the disc bulge.  Chiropractic is not a quick “fix.”  Chiropractic isn’t trying to cure your disc bulge, instead it is allowing your body to heal.  Healing does take time, and does allow your body to become stronger.  If you have suffered an injury to your disc, Chiropractic is not going to make it worse.  We cannot blow a balloon up, pop it, and then blow it back up again and pop it again.  The damage is already done.  Specific chiropractic care that is rendered to your area of nerve dysfunction is important to maintain your injury to make sure you are able to function!  A subluxation (nerve dysfunction, pinched nerve, or whatever you want to call it) is when the vertebra misaligns on the disc.  If a subluxation is persistent and chronic for a prolonged period of time, the disc will become vulnerable to injury.  Abnormal weight bearing on the disc leads to injury.  If you don’t get the subluxation checked, and adjusted if necessary, you could end up with a disc bulge.  Guess what?  The subluxation will still be there making things worse.  Have your nerves checked.

Chiropractic Side Effects

By | ADHD, Benefits of Chiropractic

Chiropractic Side Effects

Chiropractic side effects are far from in between and include better coordination for athletes, fewer colds so less sick days from work, and more restful sleep, just to name a few.  Oh, back and neck pain relief are also available.  Why are chiropractic side effects far from in between?  Well unlike conventional medicine, everybody responds differently to chiropractic care.  There is no cookie-cutter formula to one’s health.  For some people at first they might not like the chiropractic side effects.  Why?  You know that old saying, “If you don’t use it you lose it?”  Well, to a certain extent that is true.  One goes through life and begins to think that signs and symptoms are normal, when in reality things are not working right for you, which means your losing something.  When you go to a chiropractor and have specific adjustments, your nerves have no other option but to turn on and heal.  So, imagine powering something back up that has been turned off for some time.  Initially, to get it up and running back to it’s full capacity, it’s going to take some time.  That’s why sometimes people initially don’t like the side effects.

You see chiropractic is health insurance.  Chiropractic is based scientifically on the relationship between the spine and the nerve system.  The nerve system controls and coordinates all of the systems of the body.  Spinal dysfunction can have wide ranging effects on the body’s health.  Specific adjustments will produce positive chiropractic side effects.  There are no small print disclaimers with chiropractic side effects.  Protect your health by having your nerves checked for dysfunction.  The slightest spinal dysfunction (pressure on a nerve) can lead to illness and/or disease.  If your looking to improve your overall health and well-being, then have your nerves checked!
