Stress is just a part of life, but when it becomes overwhelming, stress can seriously impact your health both physically and emotionally. We’ve all been there, and the good news is that there are ways to conquer stress before it becomes a chronic issue.

One approach is through chiropractic care – a holistic, mind-body approach to relieving stress and improving mental health. Keep reading to learn how chiropractic care can help alleviate your stress.

Relieves Muscle Tension

As you experience stress, your muscles tense up and cause neck pain. What you may not realize is that over time, this takes a major toll on your overall health. It can lead to panic attacks, anxiety disorders, insomnia, and an inability to focus. Through spinal adjustments and manipulations, an experienced chiropractor can relieve tension in your body by restoring it to its natural balance.

Feeling tense? We can help relieve the muscle tension caused by stress with our chiropractic care services! Call Burghealth Chiropractic & Wellness today at (727) 289-9148.

Restores Normal Bodily Function

Because the brain communicates all bodily functions through the spinal cord, the spine is literally the backbone of your neurological system. When you are stressed, your body tenses up and causes your spine to shift. Through advanced chiropractic care, a chiropractor can help adjust your spine to effectively restore bodily functions. With regular treatments, you will notice that you are sick less, sleep better, have more energy, and are less stressed.

Lowers Blood Pressure

When you are stressed, your blood pressure can skyrocket! Fortunately, chiropractic care can significantly assist with blood pressure management. Studies show that correcting misalignments with chiropractic manipulations can reduce stress, and as a result, lower blood pressure.

Provides a Natural Approach to Alleviating Stress

Chiropractic is an effective, holistic approach to alleviating stress and a great alternative to anti-anxiety medications that can cause negative side effects. At Burghealth Chiropractic & Wellness, we believe in a natural approach to healing and have a proven track record of success with helping clients relieve chronic stress and anxiety. 

Increases Positive Hormones

Another benefit to chiropractic care adjustments and spinal manipulations is that they boost the production of good hormones such as oxytocin and cortisol. When the body produces these hormones, it leads to less stress and anxiety.

Leads to Better Nutritional Habits

Did you know that good nutrition is the foundation of maintaining your health? At Burghealth Chiropractic & Wellness, part of our chiropractic care services includes nutritional counseling. We will advise you on what you should and should not eat, as well as recommend supplements that your body may be lacking.

Focuses on Living a Healthier Lifestyle

In addition to nutritional counseling, our chiropractic care services include “coaching” patients towards achieving a healthier lifestyle. We will advise you on certain activities that you should avoid or do differently to prevent aggravating both mental and physical health challenges.

Promotes Relaxation

When you are stressed out, it’s hard to relax! Fortunately, chiropractic care can help. In fact, one study showed that chiropractic adjustments can reduce muscle activity by 25 percent, making it an effective way to relax and reduce stress as well as combat pain.
