Inflammation has a huge effect on our health. We have seen many cases over the years in our Lafayette office, and the science backs up. Chronic inflammation has been linked to heart disease, reduced immune functioning, IBS, arthritis, cancer, weight gain, and depression.
Fortunately, many studies have found that chiropractic may have a positive effect on inflammation, offering health benefits besides pain relief.
Basically, when you engage in regular chiropractic care, your central nervous system is able to pass messages effectively between your brain and your immune system, causing it to function optimally and helping prevent a lot of pain-related issues to begin with.
However, should inflammation develop, your body naturally raises the levels of certain anti-inflammatory agents after receiving chiropractic adjustments, possibly helping it to effectively heal on its own.
This means that you may begin to feel better without having to take any types of drugs or other unnatural substances to rid your body of inflammation. Ultimately, chiropractic may reduce inflammation and increase healing.
