Health tip: Spine adjustments help your immune system
Special to the Bonanza
Patient question: Doctor, since I have been coming to see you, I have only been sick once in three years. Could that be from my chiropractic care?
Yes, and here’s why. When you have back pain and stiffness the surrounding nerves get irritated. When the nerves become irritated a stress signal is sent to the organs. When the body receives a stress signal it stops digesting food, fighting disease and repairing itself.
Adjusting the spine alleviates the pain and stiffness and relieves nerve irritation. Removing nerve irritation allows the body to maintain a healthy balance which includes boosting the immune system.
