In recent years, both yoga and chiropractic care have become increasingly popular — and for good reason! Both offer many health benefits for both the body and mind. And, surprisingly enough, the two have a lot in common. Here’s how the two complement each other.

STRONGER JOINTS & LIGAMENTS

When we exercise, we usually target major muscle groups, leaving the small joints and ligaments untouched and weak. But not with yoga! Yoga focuses on all the muscles in the body. When those smaller muscles are strengthened, the larger muscles have less work required of them leading to an evenly balanced body. Yoga promotes strength and flexibility throughout the entire body, making it better able to receive chiropractic care compared to a stiff, sore, and uneven body.

INCREASED RANGE OF MOTION & MOBILITY

Chiropractic is an excellent treatment that helps increase range of motion and mobility. But why stop there? Yoga can help increase flexibility and range of motion, which is especially important for patients who are suffering from a major injury or specific condition. Yoga can help “prep” the body for chiropractic adjustments and is also great for those suffering from joint, hip, back, or neck pain. The more work you do outside of Wills Chiropractic, the more in-depth work our chiropractors can do!

PREVENT FUTURE INJURY

Both chiropractic care and yoga help keep the body in proper alignment, promote balance, stretch and relieve tense muscles, and ensure joints are working as they should. These are all things that make the body less susceptible to future injury. When done together, patients find their results are better than when just doing yoga or just receiving chiropractic adjustments.

When done properly, yoga can reduce blood sugar levels and stress, increase balance, endurance, and flexibility, and strengthen your joints and muscles. Chiropractic adjustments provide many important benefits, including improves nervous system function, corrects misalignments, and promotes better mobility. If you would like to start enjoying those benefits, click here to connect with your local Rochelle, IL chiropractor.
