9 Surprising Ways Seeing A Chiropractor Regularly Benefits Your Health

9 Surprising Ways Seeing A Chiropractor Regularly Benefits Your Health
April 22, 2019Dr. Grant Radermacher

Are You Missing Out?

If you’ve never experienced chiropractic care, you’re probably not totally aware of the health benefits – in addition to getting out of pain – that come with regularly seeing a chiropractor.

Whether you make an appointment for the first time because you’re experiencing a specific problem or just want to benefit your overall health and well-being, when you become a patient at Ascent Chiropractic, you’re taking a positive, natural approach to your improving your health.

Here are 10 health benefits that regular chiropractic care can provide for you and your family.

1. Fewer Colds and Flus

Research indicates that your immune system is stronger under regular spinal care. In a recent study Dr. Ronald Pero, chief of cancer prevention research at New York’s Preventive Medicine Institute, compared 107 individuals who had received long-term chiropractic care with patients who were not receiving regular spinal care. The chiropractic patients were shown to have a 200% greater immune competence than the control group.

2. Better Sleep

With 40 million Americans experiencing a chronic sleeping disorder and 62% of American adults experiencing problems sleeping multiple nights a week, Americans desperately need to sleep better. Common sense tells us that a good night’s sleep contributes to good health. How does chiropractic help? Chiropractic treatment helps to reduce the pain and associated anxiety of spinal misalignments which often interfere with sleep patterns. In a double-blind study published in 2005, one third of the chiropractic patients reported that their sleep patterns improved immediately after treatment.

3. Less Pain

When the spine isn’t moving correctly, pain is a common symptom. Research tells us that chiropractic adjustments are effective for not only decreasing immediate pain symptoms but reducing the likelihood of future problems as well.

4. Saved Healthcare Costs

Chiropractic care has also been shown to be more cost-effective than the medical approach of drugs or surgery. For example, the 1993 Manga Report published by the Canadian government concluded:

“There would be highly significant cost savings if more management of low-back pain was transferred from physicians to chiropractors. Users of chiropractic care have substantially lower health care costs, especially inpatient costs, than those who use medical care only.”

5. Decreased Dependence On Drugs

Each year, about 4.5 million Americans visit their doctor’s office or the emergency room because of adverse prescription drug side effects. Chiropractic care is a drugless approach to healthcare that has been shown to reduce pharmaceutical costs by 51.8%.

6. Healthier, Happier Kids

In a study of 200 kids under chiropractic care versus 200 kids under traditional medical care, those receiving regular adjustments had fewer ear infections, asthma and allergies.

7. Better Posture

Chiropractors are experts at identifying the problems at the root of poor posture through the analysis of spinal curvatures and structural alignment. Chiropractic adjustments (along with targeted soft tissue therapy and active rehabilitation exercises) restore proper posture, remove irritation from the soft tissues surrounding the vertebra and the nerves that exit between them, and allow your body to function optimally.

8. Improved Mood

Research has demonstrated those suffering with anxiety and depression frequently have dramatic results with chiropractic care. This is because chiropractic has been shown to reduce chronic system inflammation, leading to improved hormone balance. Decreasing ‘negative’ hormones, such as cortisol, and increasing ‘postive’ hormones, such as dopamine and norepinephrine, makes a big difference in how the brain and body works and how a person feels.

9. Fewer Hospital Visits

The Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics reported that patients under chiropractic care experienced 43% fewer hospital admissions compared to those under medical care.

It’s good that you point out that seeing a chiropractor can benefit people who suffer from back pain. I have back pain due to a recent basketball injury, so I’m considering going to a chiropractor. I’m going to look for a good provider of chiropractic care in my area.

My husband has been struggling with his sleep, and we are looking for advice. I liked that you mentioned chiropractic care can help you to reduce the pain related to anxiety and help you to improve your sleep.

While the first thing that comes to mind when you think of chiropractors is most likely spine adjustment, they can also help with other areas.

While the mainstay of chiropractic is spinal manipulation, chiropractic care may also include other treatments, including manual or manipulative therapies, postural and exercise education, and ergonomic training.

I loved that you mentioned chiropractic care will help you to improve your immune system and prevent that you have colds and flu. My wife and I are thinking about how to improve our overall health, and we are looking for advice.

It’s good to know that a chiropractor could help a person sleep better since they fix spinal misalignments, which often interfere with sleep patterns. My husband and I have not been getting good sleep lately, and we thought it was because of our old mattress. Perhaps I should schedule an appointment with a chiropractor first to see if we only need help with our spinal misalignments. Thanks. http://longochiro.com/

It’s terrific that you elaborate on how receiving chiropractic care reduces back pain. I have been experiencing back pain almost daily for the past three years, so going to a chiropractor this month sounds like a smart idea. I’m going to search for a reputable chiropractor in my area to use.

It’s nice that you talked about how chiropractic treatment would help in reducing the pain and associated anxiety of spinal misalignments which often interfere with sleep patterns. I’ve been having some trouble sleeping lately and I think it is because of the discomfort I am feeling on my back. I don’t want this to impact my overall health so I should probably consult with a chiropractor soon.
