Pollen season is still going strong, so let’s talk about how chiropractic care can help with allergies! 🤧

When pollen enters your body, your immune system recognizes immediately that it doesn’t belong there and mounts an immune response to defend against it. What does this defense look like? Sneezing, runny nose, itchy and watery eyes, sinus headaches, etc. This immune response also produces inflammation which can then further increase these symptoms.

Did you know that spinal adjustments can have a positive effect on immune function? Getting adjusted removes interference from your nervous system AKA the controller of EVERYTHING in the body. Once your nervous system is balanced, it can send out appropriate signals to your immune system which can lead to a smaller immune response, less inflammation, and a significant decrease in symptoms and discomfort from seasonal allergies.

So essentially, chiropractic helps your body to better adapt to seasonal allergies. If you’re one of the many dealing with allergy symptoms right now, it’s time to get adjusted!

🌟Perinatal Chiropractic🌟

What is perinatal chiropractic and why should a pregnant mom get adjusted during her pregnancy?

Perinatal is the period that spans from preconception, through pregnancy, and into postpartum. Each phase of this period brings its own challenges and changes to a woman’s body, from hormone shifts to muscular aches and pains.

We use the Zone Technique to assess mom’s body and determine which Zone needs some love and the chiropractic adjustment to stimulate specific points along her spine in order to bring her body back into balance so she can adapt to any and all changes. Less stress on mom= less stress on baby

In addition to Zone, we use the Webster Technique to balance the pelvic bones, ligaments, and muscles to create more room in the abdomen and womb for baby to move and grow. When baby has more space, they have a better chance of getting into an optimal position for birth➡️easier pregnancy and labor

Are you pregnant or planning on getting pregnant soon? Come by and see Dr. Corie to see how perinatal chiropractic can benefit you! And if you’ve had perinatal chiropractic care, drop us a comment and let us know how it helped you!

What other chiropractic myths do you want us to bust??

# health

🔹 Rest: Whether it’s physical, mental, social, or emotional, rest is an integral part of healing!
🔹 Hydration: Being hydrated gives you better clarity, better energy, and helps you make better choices. Add a pinch of Celtic sea salt or some electrolytes to your water to make it more bioavailable for your cells and tissues.
🔹 Nutrition: Eat a diet rich in protein, healthy fats, slow-burning carbs, and fruits & veggies. Prioritize real, whole foods over processed foods, but allow yourself to splurge every now and then (follow a 90:10 rule)
🔹 Exercise: Go to the gym, take a walk, play a game of pickleball, find some way to move your body every day.
🔹 Positive Mindset: Thoughts concentrated on become ideas. Manifest not only good health, but all good things in your life!
🔹 Chiropractic Care: Getting regular adjustments helps keep your body in alignment and bring balance to all systems in your body so you can function optimally!

Keeping up with regular Chiropractic adjustments ensures that the communication throughout the body is strong and that everything is functioning properly

The adult spine is made up of approximately 24 Vertebrae that are categorized into 5 different regions. Cervical, Thoracic, and Lumbar are the largest regions of the spine.

* Cervical: holds our heads up and allows for flexion, extension, and rotation of the head
* Thoracic: stabilizes the rib cage that protects vital organs like the heart and lungs
* Lumbar: supports most of the body’s weight and is the point of attachment for many muscles and ligaments

Subluxation in the spine can cause a disturbance in nerve function, but how is it determined what area of the body the disturbance in nerve function affects.

Each area of the spine is responsible for different functions throughout the body like muscle and organ function. This chart shows just exactly what part of the spine controls what part of the body!
