San Francisco Mission District Chiropractor explains how her treatments help the whole body.
Our brain is continuously working. Even when we are sleeping. The reason why chiropractic is so beneficial for total health is because we help the brain process signals easier up and down the spinal cord. Every spinal segment has nerves branching off to areas of the body. The brain also has cranial nerves and areas that are responsible for sending specific signals and hormones for function of our body.
When our spinal segments are not moving properly, our signals are not moving properly either. This causes stress and strain on our systems, organs, hormones and body. Our body wants homeostasis at all times so when one part is not working correctly, it affects other areas leading to wear and tear.
When areas of the body (spine, arms, legs, feet, wrists etc.) are not moving properly, the brain receives these signals and then locks up, tightens or administers pain as protection. When we adjust these areas, it sends signals back up to the brain letting it know that it is safe to have them unprotected. This goes with every tissue, organ, gland in our body. Our brain knows what they should be doing at all times and decides if they are safe.
