Asthma Treatment
Asthma, according to some recent estimates, affects more
than 300 million people worldwide and 22 million people in the
United States. It does affect those of all ages and mostly begins
in childhood.
Some possible factors linked to Asthma are allergies, environmental (pollution) and tobacco smoke. Asthma, in spite of all the research, the exact cause(s) may still be unknown. What is a definite is that asthma is characterized by a set of symptoms.
Do you have pain in your arm, even when you don’t go to the
gym? Does your elbow hurt even if you don’t play tennis? Even when
you rest do these pains stay with you?
This condition is common in people who play racquet sports
and you may even be living a lifestyle that worsens this
condition, even if you don’t play these sports. Many
people think that tennis elbow is just for those who play tennis.
Not so. Since more people are doing desk jobs, especially computer
work, or any task that requires repetitive strain; tiny tears in
your tendon can be created, causing pain, are more common than you
might think.
Upper Back Pain Relief
“My neck is hurting again!?” Do you ever find yourself
thinking this? Did you know that neck pain often comes from
tension in the upper shoulders? Unlike our cars, our bodies are an
interconnected network of physiological processes. One area does
effect another.
When you have tension in your upper back, it can sometimes
cut off necessary blood and nerve supply to your head and neck.
And, as we know, a steady, free-flowing supply of oxygen, carried
by our blood supply is necessary for clear thinking. Our brains
are the command and control center of our bodies, needed that
immediate feedback loop to stay open.
Neck and Shoulder Pain Treatment
How often do you feel pain when you turn your neck? Do you even
feel pain in your shoulders? Becoming even more common is the
stress generated by desk and computer work. Let’s face it, that’s
our modern culture. It’s inspiring we can touch the world by a
keyboard.
What isn’t inspiriting is when pain interferes with your daily
life. How often does this happen to you? Neck and shoulder pain
are very common in our modern world. This is where we hold our
tension.
Let’s do a little test to see how you hold your tension? Focus on
your neck and upper shoulder area? Close your eyes, if even for a
few seconds, and feel that area. Are your muscles are tight or
relaxed?
What is Chiropractic?
"Chiropractic is a health care discipline which emphasizes the
inherent recuperative power of the body to heal itself without the
use of drugs or surgery. The practice of chiropractic focuses on
the relationship between structure (primarily the spine) and
function (as coordinated by the nervous system) and how that
relationship affects the preservation and restoration of health."
- Association of Chiropractic Colleges
Allergies
Chiropractic can help reduce the severity and the
frequency of your allergies. Chiropractic does not work like an
anti-histamine as a direct, short term relief from allergies.
Chiropractic allows your body to be better equipped to fight
against allergies.
When your spine is misaligned it can impinge on the
nervous system in your body. Studies have shown that the nervous
system has an effect on the functionality of your immune system.
When your nervous system is under stress and not functioning
properly, your immune system cannot work at an optimal level.
Chiropractors work with the nervous system by aligning the spine
to relieve any stress on nerves. This allows the immune system to
work at a higher level, making it easier to fight off infections
while recognizing allergens. When your immune system recognizes
allergens, it will not overreact to them, or at least not react as
severely to them.
If you suffer from allergies, chiropractic can help you find
relief. Schedule an appointment today.
Whiplash
Whiplash is a common injury for people involved in car
collisions. When a car is struck from behind or collides with
another object, it causes the neck to snap back and forth
violently. This causes the muscles and ligaments to overextend,
leading to strains and/or tears. This is referred to as soft
tissue damage, and can cause stiffness and soreness. Whiplash can
also cause structural damage such as misaligned vertebrae,
herniated, bulging or ruptured discs, or nerve damage due to the
overextension from the violent movement.
Chiropractic can help with both types of injuries. Adjustments and
alignments can be performed specifically for those who have been
in car accidents and suffered from whiplash. The pressure on the
discs and nerves is released when the spine is returned to its
proper alignment. Chiropractic massage can be used to help relieve
the pain and discomfort from soft tissue injuries. If you have
been in a car accident, schedule an appointment with us before
relying on pain medications and surgery.
Chronic stress and the chiropractic approach
It is true that chiropractic approach can help people
cope with chronic stress. Chronic stress occurs when
stress levels do not go down as they are meant to. Our
bodies are hardwired to confront anxious or stressful
situations by increasing our stress levels and hormones
and then return to a normal state. This function happens
in every person and is what has kept our species alive.
Chiropractors have a very unique approach to helping the
body relieve itself from chronic stress.
The vertebral subluxation complex is a very serious
condition in which pressure is put on the nerves in the
spinal column and causes irritation. For people who
suffer from chronic stress, they are never able to fully
relax. This means they are much more susceptible to
fatigue, lower immune system, and disease. When a
doctor of chiropractic locates and corrects the subluxations, not only
is stress being removed from the nervous system, but
also the entire functioning of the body is improved.
These two factors relieve stress from the body directly,
and indirectly.

Pinched Nerves Hurt- Relief at Last
Do you ever feel longer than normal periods of fatigue?
Do you want more energy?
Let’s start with the basics. A nerve is like a wire. A wire is usually made of copper and wrapped in a thermoplastic coating for insulation. A nerve is wrapped in a myelin sheath for insulation. A nerve sends signals (electrochemical) to and from the area sensed to the brain and spinal cord.
The Mayo Clinic defines a pinched nerve as: A pinched nerve can occur at several sites in your body. A herniated disk in your lower spine, for example, may put pressure on a nerve root, causing pain that radiates down the back of your leg (sciatica).
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: A Cure?
Do you find it hard to concentrate? Do you have periods of
prolonged restlessness? Do you know someone who might exhibit
these symptoms? ADHD, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, is
one of the most common neurobehavioral disorders of childhood,
according the Center for Disease Control, CDC.
ADHD can be common in childhood. According to the Mayo Clinic staff ADHD may not diagnosed until later in life. Some adult symptoms may include unstable relationships, poor work or school performance and low self-esteem.
Let’s take a closer look at how brain functioning may be impaired in a person with ADHD. Did you know your brain is an organ? Sending billions of signals all over your body, your brain uses a combination of electricity and neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters may help or hinder the connection of these signals. Neurotransmitters are brain chemicals that communicate messages throughout our brain and throughout our body.
Why Chiropractic Care for Ear Infections
According to a New York Times article, “Too many doctors,
and parents, rely on antibiotics for ear infections, despite a
woeful lack of evidence for their benefits.”
Would it surprise you to discover that Acute Otitis Media “is
the most common childhood infection for which antibiotics are
prescribed in the United States?”
What is sciatica? Why is it so painful?
The sciatic nerve comes from nerves
called the sacral plexus. These nerves travel to the sacrum and
lumbar regions of the body. The sciatic nerve is actually a bundle
of two nerves, the tibial and common peroneal nerves. Since the
sciatic nerve is the largest and thickest nerve of the human body,
it’s no wonder that this structure could be easily impinged.
A
bigger wire, so to speak, is easier to get stepped on, than a
smaller one. But, in your body, your nerves don’t get stepped on,
they get caught in between things. These things in your body, come
in the form of muscle, adipose or fat tissue. Other structures may
impede but muscle and adipose are the most common.
