How Chiropractic Care Assists The Immune System

The Flu season is in full swing and it is time to give your immune system some extra reinforcement.  This year’s flu has been breaking records and putting everyone at risk of catching this virus. You can choose to kill the virus by wiping down your living space with disinfectants or, you can make sure that your immune system is strong enough to fight it.  Chiropractic care is not only great in dealing with neck or back pain but also provides assistance in dealing with full body health benefits. Spinal manipulation has been shown to give the body a fighting chance against current or potential health issues.

Spine Health is Directly Correlated with Our Immune System

The body is an extremely complex and intricate system.  When one system is out of alignment the whole body falls out of alignment.  The nervous system runs through the spine and directly assists with the immune system. Spinal misalignment can cause stress on the body and the nervous system which has been shown to weaken the immune response in the face of a pathogen.  During a chiropractic adjustment your spine is placed back into alignment. This alignment rids your body of stress, and equips it to fight off illness whilst strengthening the immune system. One study in specific, showed the effects of chiropractic care on the neuroimmune connection and how getting adjusted has shown to boost the body’s immunity.  You can also better assist your immune health with this limited time immune boost bundle which can be found here.  While scrubbing the counters may keep the virus at bay, it is more conducive to get an adjustment and make sure the immune system is strong enough to fight off whatever comes its way.
