Wellness
When most people think of chiropractic care, they think of treatment for back pain. What many don’t realize is that chiropractic care is extremely beneficial to the overall wellness of the body. Wellness refers to the active process of making lifestyle choices that promote a healthy, fulfilled life. It is an ever changing and growing process that leads to better quality of life.
Unlike health, wellness is “an active process of becoming aware of and making choices toward a healthy and fulfilling life” (UC Davis). We aren’t always in control of our health, as there are genetic and environmental factors impacting our health that we cannot change. What we can control, however, are everyday habits and lifestyle choices that promote our health and serve as preventative measures for illness.
That’s what wellness is all about.
It is a means by which to attain and boost our health. Wellness is essential not only to our physical well-being, but also our mental and emotional well-being. To achieve the best quality of life, reduce stress, and prevent illness and disease, wellness must be a priority.
Chiropractic care is a great way to promote physical, mental, and emotional wellness.
Chiropractic helps improve nervous system function, upon which the entire body is significantly dependent. The nervous system communicates with every part of our body, sending signals and transmitting messages. As a result, wellness is very much contingent on the nervous system.
With the spine properly aligned, the nervous system can better communicate sensory information to the entire body. A healthy nervous system, as well as the freedom from pain and stress, that chiropractic allows boosts wellness, leaving you happier and healthier.
Chiropractic improves nervous system function through spinal alignment and adjustments.
Stress management and other benefits of chiropractic care also promote wellness. Here are just a few more ways chiropractic treatments advance overall wellness:
- Reduces stress
- Improves mobility and balance
- Boosts immunity
