Stress, worry, anxiety, burden... Call it what you will, any of these can put stress on your nervous system. If you have been stressed and gotten a cold or the flu, or started having headaches, your nervous system may have been reacting to your mental or emotional stress level. If you have put stress on your body by perhaps over-training for a marathon or working all weekend in your yard, you may feel exhausted or have pain in your joints. This is your nervous system reacting to the physical stress you have put on your nervous system.

What does this mean for me?

Getting chiropractic adjustments when you are experiencing stress in life, whether physical, emotional, or mental provides tremendous relief! When aspects of your life are causing stress, your muscles often react by tensing up. When this happens, subluxations can occur in your spine, causing dysfunction in your nervous system. By visiting your chiropractor for adjustments and staying on a regular wellness routine, you are keeping your nervous system healthy. This can help prevent illness, headaches, and pain, all common side effects of stress.

So, if your crazy aunt or in-laws are coming to visit or you have a big test, marathon, or work deadline coming up, call your chiropractor. You can also prevent any possible dysfunction in your nervous system by getting regular adjustments. Schedule an appointment today at one of our convenient locations. www.chiropartners.com/Locations
