The chiropractic adjustment has been found safe and effective in treating a wide range of health problems including headaches, joint pain, and backaches. It also helps to improve the overall quality of the patient’s health and life by relieving systemic problems associated with the central nervous system and muscles. Here are some of the other primary benefits of chiropractic treatment.

The chiropractic adjustment is one of the most trusted and popular alternative, non-invasive, non-medical and holistic treatment approaches available today. It is also commonly referred to as spinal manipulation, chiropractic manipulation, or manual manipulation. In a chiropractic adjustment, the Doctor of Chiropractic applies pressure to the spine in order to mobilize the vertebrae, minimize the subluxation, enhance function, improve range of motion, and alleviate nerve irritability.

Chiropractic treatment has been found safe and effective in treating a wide range of health problems including the ones listed below.

Advantage #1 - Immune System

When there are obstructions or barriers with the signaling pathway that connects the immune system and the central nervous system, the body’s natural defense mechanism and healing ability are impaired. A chiropractic adjustment can greatly help in getting rid of such obstructions without the need for medication or surgical operation, thus stimulating the immune system.

Advantage #2 - Sports Performance

Professional athletes and even non-athletes can benefit from chiropractic care. Chiropractic adjustments will not only help improve functionality in everyday life, but also helps enhance athletic and physical performance.

The sports-specific Doctors of Chiropracitc can not only help you alleviate a multitude of sports injuries, but they can also teach you effective techniques that can help you avoid injury, maximize athletic performance, minimize inflammation, enhance joint function, shorten recovery time, and alleviate pain, strains, and sprains.

Advantage #3 - Migraine and headaches

Next to neck pain and back pain, headaches are considered one of the most common reasons why patients visit a chiropractor. If you are suffering from a frequent headache, tension, or migraine, a Doctor of Chiropracitc can be of great help. A chiropractor is an expert when it comes to removing the irritation to your nervous system that is the cause of most headaches, neck and back tension, as well as muscle tension.

Advantage #4 - Pregnancy

It is common for pregnant women to experience chronic back pain and muscle spasms during the course of their pregnancy. This is because of the increased weight and the change in weight distribution on the joints and pelvis. Muscles spasms and back pain are not only disturbing; they also increase the chances of more painful and challenging labor and delivery.

A chiropractor will help balance ligaments, muscles, and the pelvis to eliminate pressure on the uterus, thus minimizing spasms and pain leading to an easier pregnancy and delivery.

Advantage #5 - Neck and lower back pain

Chiropractic adjustment has been found more effective than any other approach used in dealing with neck and lower back pain. It was also found to be more affordable and cost-efficient than physical therapy and general medical care.

According to the British Medical Journal, a clinical study was done in 2003 involving 183 patients who were suffering from neck pain. Patients were randomly selected and assigned to undergo either medical care, chiropractic care, or physical therapy for 52 weeks. The result of the study revealed that patients who received chiropractic care recovered faster. The total cost for the chiropractic care was also just one-third of the cost spent by those patients who received general medical care and physical therapy.

Aside from the above-mentioned benefits, chiropractic care is also helpful in relieving other health problems including scoliosis, allergies and asthma, frozen shoulder, neurological conditions, sciatica, anxiety, vertigo and dizziness, Bell's palsy, insomnia, ADHD, colic, acid reflux and ear infections. It also help improve the overall quality of the patient’s health and life by relieving systemic problems associated with the central nervous system and muscles.
