Chronic Conditions to Treat With Chiropractic Treatments

Are you interested in finding an alternative to pain medication? Chiropractic care is an effective pain management option that corrects your body’s alignment and can reduce discomfort and pain. At Vida Integrated Health, we have chiropractors that offer a wide range of services to address chronic conditions.

Below are some of the chronic conditions to treat with chiropractic care.

Asthma

A chiropractor realigns your spine and loosens your breathing muscles, helping you take deeper breaths. When you suffer spine misalignment, your asthma worsens since you cannot breathe freely. Misalignment of the spine occurs after an accident, poor lifting, or improper exercise techniques in your vertebrae. 

Chiropractic care makes it easy for your brain to send messages to your lungs through the nerves. The treatment frees up the tendons, muscles, and nerve endings responsible for breathing. 

Lower Back Pain

Lower back pain resulting from an inactive lifestyle, bad posture, pregnancy, tension, and stress are eliminated through chiropractic treatments. The treatment releases stiff muscles that causes pressure and lower back pain. 

Regardless of the cause of lower back pain, always seek chiropractic care as it helps address the root cause of the pain. You can pair chiropractic care with traditional therapies such as physical therapy or massages and stretches to combat lower back pain.

Headaches

Chiropractic treatments help eliminate neck pain linked to cervicogenic headaches. Cervicogenic headaches are often confused with migraines. They are felt in the temples, back of the head, or behind the eyes.

Getting chiropractic treatment stimulates serotonin production, reducing stress and related headaches. During the session, your body produces serotonin (the feel-good hormone). This helps to drive out any feelings of tension and stress-related headaches, leaving you relaxed. 

Generative Disk Disease (DDD)

Chiropractic care increases the elasticity and flexibility of the vertebrae reducing DDD impacts. When you grow older, the discs between your vertebrae start degenerating and breaking down due to many years of overuse and strain. These discs lose their elasticity, flexibility, and ability to absorb shock. Chiropractic treatment stretches the discs and improves their functionality, lowering DDD.

Insomnia

Acquiring chiropractic services reduces pain and eases stress, promoting sleep. High-stress levels and chronic pain cause insomnia. Chiropractors help relieve your body pain, enabling you to sleep more comfortably.

A chiropractic session spurs the release of the serotonin hormone. This makes you feel calm, flexible, and happy, stimulating sleep. At Vida Integrated Health, we provide chiropractic services that help address and prevent insomnia.

Strains and Sprains

Chiropractic care relaxes overstretched muscles, calming your back. Strains occur when ligaments holding bones together get torn or overstretched. They mainly happen when you play a strenuous sport, lift too much weight, or improperly twist. At Vida Integrated Health, we offer Chiropractic care that alleviates back pain and helps you recover from your injury quickly.
