Chiropractic care can definitely help with the flu!

Having regular chiropractic adjustments can help you not only fight off the pain associated with the common cold and flu, but it can also keep your body run properly, helping you fight off the flu altogether and as a result, more and more of our patients are turning to Bellomo Family Chiropractic for relief. Chiropractic is a natural immune booster. 

Chiropractic adjustments when you're sick can boost your immune system and lymphatic flow, and clear the nervous system.

How can chiropractic help reduce your risk of flu?

The benefits of having regular chiropractic adjustments are numerous, including reduced pain and improved mobility. What many people don’t realize, however, is that chiropractic can help strengthen your immune system, your body’s contagion-fighting powerhouse.

When your immune system is working well, your body is primed to fight off nasty infections like the flu. But there are a lot of ways the immune system can be weakened. Elderly individuals and very young children have naturally weaker immune systems, but things like stress, poor diet, chronic illness, sedentary lifestyle, and a compromised central nervous system can weaken anyone’s immunity to infection.

When you get a chiropractic adjustment, the focus is on optimizing your musculoskeletal system, particularly your spine. Dr. John and Dr. Joe are trained and licensed chiropractor that can help ensure that your spine is correctly aligned, facilitating better functioning of the spinal cord, a crucial element of your central nervous system. The central nervous system communicates constantly with your immune system, so when it is out of whack, that communication breaks down and your immune system is weakened.

The stress-relief benefits of chiropractic care can also help support a healthy immune system. In ensuring the proper functioning of your central nervous system, chiropractic can help prime your body to handle everyday stressors. When the central nervous system is compromised, like when your spine is misaligned or you experience joint pain, your body has a harder time dealing with stress and you become more susceptible to infections like the flu.

The Chiropractic Approach

Chiropractic doesn't treat the common cold . It does , however, help raise our natural resistance to disease-the only "cure". Natural resistance is the only reason why colds "go away" rather than last for weeks , months, or entire lifetimes! Chiropractic care helps raise our natural resistance to disease by removing a serious interference to our natural healing ability : Spinal nerve stress or subluxation.

Keeping the spinal column free of vertebral subluxations helps keep natural immunity high. Whatever else you do for yourself , it is essential , if you are suffering from the flu, colds, or respiratory problems , that your spinal column stay healthy. It could make the difference between a quick recovery and a lingering illness-even between life and death.
