7 Conditions that Can Be Addressed by Chiropractic Care

Annually, over 30 million people seek medical help from chiropractic practitioners to manage their illnesses. This is because of the immense health benefits that chiropractic care offers patients. Here are seven conditions/ailments that can be addressed through chiropractic treatments:

Headaches

People spend countless hours in front of the computer. The odd angle at which their heads bend, can strain the neck muscles and cause pain. This neck pain can defer to the head and cause chronic headaches. The constant hunching of the back can hurt the spine, which can also sometimes manifest as a headache.

Chronic headaches can result in a loss of focus and increased irritability. Chiropractic care is designed to relieve the pressure in the neck and spine, thereby reducing headaches.

Allergies

Allergy treatment is one of the lesser-known benefits of chiropractic care. Acupuncture, in particular, is designed to help the patient manage their allergies, sensitivities, and sniffles. At Dixon Chiropractic, we have extensive experience in acupuncture and chiropractic care.

High blood pressure

1/3rd of the adult population around the world suffers from hypertension. High BP can cause a wide range of cardiovascular disorders, which may turn fatal if care isn’t taken. Chiropractic treatments can help reduce high blood pressure by relieving the stress on the brain stem that’s responsible for systolic and diastolic BP regulation. 

ADHD

Acupuncture is one of the most-preferred chiropractic treatment technique for ADHD. Studies have found that acupuncture improves the positive impact that biofeedback treatments have on children with ADHD, which in turn helps reduce brain hyperactivity. Chiropractic care is one of the few treatment techniques that doesn’t rely on medication to help children with ADHD and other behavioral conditions.

Back pain

Poor posture isn't the only reason for back pain. Wrong exercise stance and pregnancy are two other reasons why chronic back pain may develop. Chiropractic treatments are designed to ease the pent-up stress in the spine and the back muscles, allowing the body to relax and become pain-free.

Gastrointestinal disorder

Chiropractic care is an excellent solution for digestive conditions like GERD, IBS, colic, and constipation. Chiropractic treatments activate the endocrine system and the nervous system, which are responsible for activities like the production of organ-regulating hormones and digestion. With the endocrine and the nervous system activated, the body safely digests the food, ensuring there is no onset of gastrointestinal disorders.

Cancer

Chemotherapy can lead to muscle wasting, sickness, body pain, and tiredness. Chiropractic care can be used to manage these symptoms.

Chiropractic treatments like acupuncture release the stress in the muscles, ensuring that the patient feels relaxed and calm. At Dixon Chiropractic, we are a chiropractic center based out of Plantation, FL. Our sessions are designed to help strengthen your muscles, relieve stress and re-energize you through holistic medical care.

We also stock premium-quality CBD oil for purchase at our clinic, which has been found to alleviate cancer-related symptoms. Contact us for more information.
