ALLERGY RELIEF THROUGH CHIROPRACTIC CARE?
ALLERGY RELIEF THROUGH CHIROPRACTIC CARE?
The next time you sneeze, it may be time to visit a chiropractor. Yes, a chiropractor. Most people never think about it, but chiropractic care can help provide allergy relief. That’s because chiropractic care, often thought necessary for only back and neck problems, can help in keeping the body operating at peak performance.
The body’s immune system helps with preventing disease and infection, dealing with stress and overall well-being. The immune system also tackles the invasion in a body of foreign substances such as pollution, dust, dead cells, etc. Current research is showing that there is a direct link between the nervous system and the immune system. Chiropractors remove nerve interference and allows the immune system to work at its optimum.
Allergic reactions are the most frequent immune disorders and happen when the body’s immune system overreacts to allergens such as dust, pollen, pet dander, etc. The response is that the body overproduces neutralizing chemicals such as histamines to correct the problem.
What causes allergies? No one knows for sure. Some theories say it’s our increasing sterile environment. Others suspect the overuse of antibiotics and vaccinations. But our immune system is at its best when fighting off disease, parasites and bacteria all by itself. The more we try to protect and help it, the weaker it becomes. It is proven that children who live on farms and are exposed to different animals and the outdoors have fewer allergies than those who are not exposed.
Traditional allergy treatments only deal with the symptom without addressing the cause. This is because western medicine has no cure for allergies. Worse yet, antihistamines used over time or combined with other medications can be dangerous.
But just how can chiropractors help with such problems? The answer is simple. Chiropractic care releases stress on a patient’s nervous system. This allows the immune system to operate more effectively, which is beneficial to anyone, especially those suffering from allergies.
The chiropractic approach is to remove subluxations, a term for misaligned spinal vertebrae pinching a nerve. Subluxations place stress on the nervous system. Free from nervous system stress, your body will work more effectively to neutralize the allergy-causing chemicals in your environment. Spinal health can be as important for your overall healing as proper nutrition. A healthy spine can improve your life.
