Chiropractic and Immunity

At this time of year we look for ways to give our immune system a boost to beat those seasonal colds and flu infections. Your immune system protects you from viruses, bacteria, parasites and toxins.

How does Chiropractic care affect your immune system?

Chiropractic is about far more than the relief of back pain; it can help your body fight infections, reduce their severity and improve your chances of avoiding them in the first place.

This is because chiropractic adjustments enhance your body's ability to heal itself and help to restore the balance of your nervous system which controls all the functions in your body, including your immune system. Your spine consists of 24 moving vertebrae which if they lose their normal position, irritate the nervous system and disrupt the function of your tissues and organs. Interference in your nervous system can reduce the strength of your immunity, allowing infections and allergic reactions to develop.

Chiropractic does not claim to be able to cure flu or colds but can significantly help your body resist them, reducing their severity and frequency. Why wait to be ill or in pain before you see a chiropractor?

Pop in and see us for some spinal inspiration and find out more about chiropractic and immunity.
