Are Chiropractic Adjustments Good For You?

Hello everyone welcome to another segment of Ask Dr Doug today we’re gonna answer the question, Are Chiropractic Adjustments Good For You? Before we get into that, a little bit about me, I am a structural corrective care Chiropractor based in the Charlotte North Carolina area. We focus on  restructuring reshaping the spine to get back to normal kind of like what an Orthodontists does with the teeth, that’s what we do with the spine. So Are Chiropractic Adjustments Good For You? The short answer is absolutely yes, as most of you know that I’ve been following me we understand that when there are misalignments in the spine and they put pressure on the nervous system, it can affect the way the brain and body communicate with one another, those are known as subluxations and what we do as Chiropractors as we reduce those subluxations or remove those subluxations so that the brain and body can communicate with one another effectively the way they were designed to, so that it can function and heal at an optimal level. Today, I thought I would take this a little bit different direction, and show you a little bit of research that we have that shows that Chiropractic can not only help your body function and heal better, but also reduce some of the symptoms that are associated with subluxations. The first study that we have here is out of University of Chicago Hypertension Center, and what they found is miss alignments in the upper neck or upper cervical spine can affect blood pressure, and they found that by reducing the subluxations or specific atlas adjustments in this region had the effect of not one but two blood pressure medications given in combination. They saw that it was adverse event free they saw no side effects and problems. Another study that we have is based on Chiropractic treatment and the enhancement of sports performance. A Canadian research team included Chiropractic care in a rehabilitation program of 16 injured, female long distance runners, not only did the runners recover more quickly, nearly half of them scored personal best in performances, while under Chiropractic care. Another study out of Holland Medical Journal reported that in a group of a 115 families with asthmatic children, 70%… 73% sorry of the families utilized Chiropractic care for the asthma related symptoms of those 92% of those families reported that Chiropractic care was both beneficial for the reduction of the asthma related symptoms in their children. We also got a couple of case studies here, one show the improvement in quality of sleep in patients with attention deficit disorder. As you know, that something that we deal with a lot here at Clearview Family Chiropractic, and then the last one here was a case study of a 45 year old female with an 11 year, history of Fibromyalgia symptoms and she found a resolution of all of her fibromyalgia symptoms, while under Chiropractic care.
