As many of us maintain our focus on a healthy year, it can become confusing to understand your level of health. One this is certain, how you feel is not a clear indicator of your health. If how you feel doesn’t dictate your health, then what does? Here’s what you need to know.  

HOW DO I KNOW IF I’M HEALTHY?  

There are countless ways to affect your health, but the foundational piece is the nervous system. Your brain transmits information down your spinal cord through miles of nerves that go to every organ, structure, system, and call in your body. The information is then transmitted from these cells, systems, structures and organs back to the brain through the nerves and up the spinal cord. This is your body’s communication system, and it is this system that dictates your health.  

Poor transmission in your communication system leads to miscommunication and function that is less than ideal. This suboptimal function leads to “dis-ease” in your body and, if left alone for long enough, results in a multitude of malfunctions. So, foundationally, communication along the spinal cord and nervous system is key to being healthy. Another important factor to understand is that 90% of this communication does not transmit pain, which is why using pain as an indicator of health isn’t the best idea.  

HOW DO I IMPROVE MY HEALTH?

In order to achieve optimal health, your body needs to have optimal communication. Your nervous system is that communication system and it is the optimal level of health and body function. So how do you improve your health and make sure your communication system is in tip-top shape? Make regular chiropractic care a part of your health care routine!  

The spine is the home and protector of the nervous system. The better your spine is functioning, the better the overall health of bones and joints which means you provide your body with the best opportunity to communicate effectively. Chiropractic adjustments improve function and restore motion of the spine.  

The daily wear and tear that your body takes along with everyday stress means your body needs to recuperate, which is done through regular chiropractic adjustments. To learn more about how chiropractic care can improve your health, click here to contact us and schedule an adjustment!
