Have you ever been to a Chiropractor? While some swear by it, and others stay away,
there are so many benefits of a chiropractic Adjustment that may surprise you.
Hi viewers and welcome back to Bestie!
It’s estimated that a whopping 80% of adults will experience back pain at some point and
the effects can have a significant impact on day to day life. A Chiropractic adjustment is
one of the best non-invasive treatments that can provide significant relief from pain,
plus many other benefits. And in today’s video, we will tell you what they are.
From improving joint mobility, relieving pain, providing stress relief, boosting
immunity to reducing inflammation and more, watch till the end to learn about all of them.
Makes exercising easier: When your body hurts, you’re less motivated to hit the gym. Forcing
yourself to exercise means you probably won’t have the great workout you usually do.
Chiropractic adjustments help you relieve your back, knee, neck and elbow pain,
which means that you can go back to your normal workout and burn more calories.

Better Nerve Signaling: The nerves that stem from your spine communicate with your brain to control
thousands of bodily functions. They require a clear pathway for optimal performance.
However, when the joints within your spine are misaligned, they can place too much pressure on
the nerves that stem from your spinal cord. This compression limits the nerves’ ability to conduct
signals to and from your brain which can cause discomfort or interfere with normal functioning.
A Chiropractic adjustment helps maintain proper spinal alignment.
This in turn, alleviates pressure on the nerves that stem from the spinal column. And when
your nerves can transmit information easily, your entire body feels and functions better.
Improves joint mobility: Chiropractic adjustments can improve joint mobility. It helps patients
live more comfortably and reduce their reliance on pain meds. A Chiropractic
adjustment actually helps aid recovery from sports-related injuries and in most cases,
the recovery time is much shorter. Increased joint mobility can also help to strengthen
muscles and joints, reducing the frequency of joint or back pain.
Reduces Blood Pressure: The common cure for high blood pressure is medication. But in 2007,
hypertension expert George Bakris showed the amazing effect of a single chiropractic
adjustment on blood pressure. This single adjustment had the same effect as two different
drugs designed to lower blood pressure. The effects also lasted over six months.
Other studies of patients with high blood pressure show similar results.
Drugs may not be appropriate for you based on other health factors.
Getting a chiropractic adjustment could reduce your blood pressure, without the need for them.
Improves posture: Over time, poor posture can have an impact on your back and the rest of
your body. Strain and imbalances can open the door for degenerative diseases in the muscles,
ligaments and joints. Regular chiropractic adjustments along
with lifestyle modifications can help alleviate problems.
This is especially important if you spend most of your day sitting. Adjustments help correct
any tilting or curvature in your spinal cord that may occur during long periods working or studying.

Relieves pain: Many people have eliminated their need for pain medication because of
chiropractic care. Spinal manipulation, a term for general chiropractic treatment,
has often been shown to be more effective than mediation. Particularly for those
people who suffer from acute neck pain. In fact, there is data showing that a
high percentage of people actually pay less for their care this way. In the long run,
a chiropractic adjustment can not only replace medication but also cost less.
Some common ailments chiropractic care relieves are: scoliosis, ear infections, headaches,
neck pain, lower back pain and sciatica.
Improves Athletic Performance: Athletes place a substantial amount of pressure
on their bodies and as a result need on-going care for peak performance.
Many athletes get regular adjustments to relieve pain, as it improves nerve function.
Improving nerve function improves the immune system,
which can increase energy levels and release muscle tension, but more on that in a minute.
Stress relief: Misaligned skeletal and muscular systems mean a misaligned nervous system.
This can cause one part of your body to begin compensating for the weakness.
This results in a great deal of stress both physically and mentally if symptoms are severe
enough to cause pain. Once you receive an adjustment and balance out your body,
you’ll feel less tense. And your musculoskeletal system can better deal with stress.
Better Breathing: Did you know that a regular chiropractic adjustment can improve
your breathing? There’s a connection between the lungs and the nerves in the spinal cord
that send messages to the brain. If your spine is misaligned, particularly in the upper or mid-back,
this can lead to interruptions in nerve signaling and breathing difficulties.
Misalignments can also lead to inflammation in and around the lungs.
This inflammation can prevent you from breathing as well as you’d like to.
Increased energy: As we mentioned earlier,
regular chiropractic adjustments can help you to feel more relaxed and energized. If you’re tired
of sneaking coffee or sugary snacks for an extra boost, maybe consider a chiropractic adjustment.
This can reduce tension, eliminate blockages, and improve blood flow throughout the body.
These effects can deliver more oxygen and nutrients to the brain,
which means more energy and improved alertness.
Better digestion: When your spine is all out of alignment, your nervous system may end
off signals for chemical production. This can result in digestive issues,
such as heartburn, bloating, acid reflux or gas. Adjustments can bring the nerves
in your spine back to a healthy place and reduce your digestive and other issues.
Eases pregnancy troubles: Any woman who has experienced pregnancy and childbirth
knows that it changes your body in many ways. Chiropractic adjustments can help
relieve pain and ease tension caused by the added weight near your spine.
It can even make childbirth easier. Aligning the spine has also been shown to improve the
nervous system and create a healthier all-around mother and child during pregnancy and childbirth.
Boosts immunity: A healthy immune system should be able to fight off most bacteria and
viruses. It requires only minimal assistance from antibiotics or other drugs. Because the nervous
system controls the function of cells, organs and tissues a misalignment can reduce the ability of
the immune system. A chiropractic adjustment can realign the spine, freeing up the immune
system to fight off intruders. Studies show that people who visit a chiropractor have fewer colds.
Apart from getting a chiropractic adjustment, there are other natural ways to boost immunity.

Now, back to Reasons Why You Should Get A Chiropractic Adjustment
Very affordable: A chiropractic treatment may be a cheaper alternative for chronic low back
pain. In a study, researchers found that people who received
a chiropractic treatment had lower overall treatment costs.
The study also determined that their treatment was shorter than conventional medical treatment.
Reduces inflammation: Inflammation is often the cause of muscle tension,
back pain and joint issues, but a chiropractic adjustment can help. The manipulation techniques
reduce inflammation, relieving back pain and easing tension in your neck and spine.
The treatment works by realigning your neck and spine, so that the nerves function as they should.
This reduces the production of neuropeptides, which can help to reduce inflammation.
A chiropractic adjustment can also reduce the production of
certain proteins that regulate the cells of the nervous system.
Studies suggest that a chiropractic treatment can reduce pain and inflammation in the body.
Fewer Headaches: Do you often struggle with headaches? If so,
chiropractic neck or back adjustments can help. There are lots of reasons why
you might suffer from headaches, from poor posture to allergies or sinus infections.
Chiropractors will work with you to identify the cause of your headaches
and then come up with a treatment plan that addresses them from the root.
They won’t just write you a prescription for painkillers and send you on your way.
Better balance: Chiropractic adjustments can improve your balance. If your spine is misaligned,
or if you’re dealing with tightness or inflammation in a certain part of the body,
you may be more prone to balance issues. By working to fix these problems now
you can avoid more serious complications as you get older.
