CHIROPRACTIC & THE COMMON COLD

HOW CAN CHIROPRACTIC HELP?

Chiropractic does not treat the common cold.  Chiropractic helps to increase the body's natural resistance...it increases immunity. Subluxations are misaligned vertebrae within the spine and they interfere with the nerves and the flow of information & energy between the brain and the rest of our body.  Subluxations lower your natural resistance to disease by causing a disconnection in this vital communication system.  Adjustments relieve nerve stress and restore optimal body function for higher resistance to not only disease, but to other stresses including bacteria, virus, dust and temperature changes.  Another great benefit of getting adjusted when you have a cold is that when you are adjusted it is actually possible for the proper drainage to occur in the sinuses and ears thus easing congestion. 

There are approximately 62 million cases of the common cold each year.

The best thing you can do to prevent a cold is to keep your body in balance and your immune system working hard; chiropractic is proven to do both.  The next time you feel yourself coming down with a cold...call the office or drop in and get an immune boosting adjustment to help fight any infection.  One of the most common benefits that we hear from people who are under regular chiropractic care is the decrease in the number of colds/flu that they experience.
