Did you know chiropractic care helps improve the nervous system? When the nervous system is functioning correctly, it aids in strengthening the immune system. By utilizing chiropractic adjustment, we are able to improve movement of the spinal bones, helping to relieve pressure on the nerves. When you have high amounts of stress, the body produces more cortisol. the cortisol is dangerous to the body as it causes a handful of ailments and pretty soon you can find yourself susceptible to colds and viruses more frequently.
The Immune System
The main role of our immune system is to fight off infection and prevent them from entering the body, leading to problems. We have a complex immune system that is tied to several things from tissues to organs, cells and proteins. The immune system does have issues that can cause it to be vulnerable. Some of the common issues with immune systems include:
- Autoimmune disorders
- Allergies
- Immunodeficiency
- Cancer
- Respiratory ailments
- Age
- Weight problems
- Poor diet
When you have something like an autoimmune disorder, the immune system is vulnerable to viruses. Fortunately, there are treatments available to assist people with autoimmune disorders and other conditions that lead to a weak immune system.
