Self-Care & Seasonal Depression
October 11, 2024
We’re sure you’ve felt it before – a sore back and stiff neck just upon waking up. Sometimes you barely bend over to put your shoes on and the pain is excruciating. It is seemingly impossible to find a comfortable position and the pain is never-ending.
You try a heating pad, no luck. You try an ice pack, no relief. You stretch, but the pain continues. You move on to over-the-counter pain relievers, but those only masks the pain for a few hours. Plus, you don’t want to take pills for pain relief forever, do you? You need to relieve the pain and for good, but what can you do?
The best solution is to get to the root of the problem which is exactly where the experienced chiropractors at Livingston County Chiropractic Center come in. Here are just a few of the many benefits of chiropractic care.
1. Chiropractic Provides Relief from Pain
At your local Pontiac, IL chiropractic practice, our chiropractors are excellent problem solvers. We are usually able to determine the issues that are causing pain in your back, neck, hips, and other areas of the body. Most of our patients experience pain relief after just one adjustment, but maintaining regular chiropractic care is the key to preventing painful symptoms from returning.
2. Chiropractic Returns Optimal Body Function
Chiropractic is an excellent treatment for pain relief, but there is so much more that it does for your body. Chiropractic adjustments remove misalignments (aka subluxations) from the spine. These subluxations interrupt communication between the central nervous system and the rest of your body. Once they are removed, optimal function is restored and your body can function effectively and efficiently.
3. Chiropractic Restores Motion to the Joints
Many of our patients experience pain due to their joints being locked up or stiff. Chiropractic adjustments can help relax the muscles surrounding the joints, which is an important part of treating joint pain. When the muscles around the joints are relaxed, motion is restored.
If you are living with pain and symptoms like stiff joints, low back pain, or a sore neck, chiropractic care can help – and provide you with so much more! To schedule an adjustment, just click here to contact us. We look forward to helping you find pain relief and enjoy a healthy body.
