Chiropractic Care- The Many Benefits

Chiropractic is based on the idea that the relationship between the body’s structure (mainly that of the spine) and its function (as coordinated by the nervous system) affects our health. 

 

Some benefits of Chiropractic are: 

correcting alignment problems, 

alleviating pain, 

improving function, 

and supporting the body's natural ability to heal itself (NCCIH.)

 

Regular Chiropractic adjustments can minimize your chances of getting ill. 

Chiropractic can help your immune system be stronger.

  

Studies show that regardless of age, long-term chiropractic care can have a 200% increase in immune development and function. This in turn has the ability to help your body to resist disease (Pero, Campbell).  

Chiropractic care is also wonderful for children. Reports indicate that Chiropractic care successfully treats children’s health issues such as acute earaches, upper respiratory infections, muscle pains, neck pains and accident traumas. 

Spinal manipulation for children as young as newborn babies is an alternative treatment for the discomfort of colic as well as other digestive disorders (Clarke). 

Moreover, Chiropractic care can also help with epilepsy. Studies have demonstrated that seizures were able to go from several seizures a day down to just a few a month (LifeSpring).

 

I am a firm believer in Chiropractic care and that the mind and body are interrelated regarding health.

I grew up with Chiropractic care. My father and brother are Chiropractors. My father is retired and my brother is a Chiropractor in Salem Virginia. Learn more about Chiropractic at my brother's website, Dr. Dan Davidson: http://www.backresort.com/   

My brother Dan came through Nashville recently and only had time to meet up with me at a restaurant. I insisted on getting a Chiropractic treatment from him....so here is a picture of me getting an adjustment- at a Subway Diner. (Then I insisted on a selfie.)

I personally go regularly for Chiropractic adjustments to
