As a Plano chiropractor, we understand the importance of a healthy body. Your health stems from the health of your spine, brain, and body functions. If any of these are out of alignment, your health will suffer.
Most people are at least vaguely aware of the benefits of chiropractic care. However, there are many benefits that are not widely known. Many consider seeing a chiropractor only when they have a back injury or pain. While this is a start, Plano chiropractors do more than only treat back and spine problems. We can assist you with a wide range of concerns safely and naturally.
Let’s look at how a visit to your Plano chiropractor could help you improve your health.
Makes Breathing Easier
The lungs rely on nerve function to function properly. Lung issues might occur when your thoracic or cervical spinal areas are misaligned. Chiropractic treatment for these problems can help reduce lung irritation and make breathing easier.
Range of Motion
Chiropractic care manipulates your body to preserve and improve your range of motion. Even if you’re not in pain, your ligaments, joints, and connective tissue degenerate over time.
It promotes joint mobility and may lower the risk of joint and cartilage degeneration later in life. Chiropractic care also addresses muscle strength, assisting in loosening tight muscles and strengthening weaker muscles.
Increased Blood Flow to the Brain
A properly positioned spine promotes blood flow throughout the body, including the brain. People suffering from neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis or epilepsy may benefit greatly from this.
Sleep Quality
Misalignments in the spine may interfere with your sleep even if they don’t cause pain. Regular chiropractic adjustments relieve unhealthy strain and stress on your spine’s nerves and bones, promoting relaxation.
Dr. Mary Ellen Kirwan can advise about appropriate sleeping positions in addition to changes. She can discuss with you the importance of a supportive pillow or mattress. She can discuss with you about avoiding resting on your stomach, which can help your body feel better when sleeping.
Helps with Headaches
Chiropractic therapy can be an excellent approach to control and reduce migraine and tension headache pain. Routine chiropractic therapy offers migraine and tension headache patients a safe, non-addictive alternative to over-the-counter pain medications (OTCs) and prescription drugs. These medications are routinely administered to help patients manage their pain.
While we have talked about some of the ways you can benefit from seeing your Plano chiropractor, many other benefits, such as helping with ear infections, can help lower blood pressure, and easing various joint pain.
