The sounds of the 4th of July are sometimes also used to describe how we sound when we move. Why does this happen? Is seeing a Chiropractor beneficial? Here are a few words from Dr. Meier Miller at Restoration Dallas Chiropractic:
Chiropractic focuses on maintaining proper function of the nervous system through spinal correction. Your spine is the lifeline that connects all cells, organs, and systems in the body, making it responsible for all function and healing. By optimizing the nerve supply, you allow the body’s systems to interact and integrate without interference, unlocking the body’s own natural potential for health, healing, and peak performance.
Improper spinal alignment is common and likely due to the physical, emotional, and chemical stress you apply to your body every day. These misalignments diminish nerve supply, weakening the body, therefore causing poor function and the symptoms of bad health. This means nerve supply must be addressed as the foundational challenge to living at your full potential. Chiropractic is not designed to treat the pain or symptom, but rather to treat the underlying issues which are causing the problem. Symptoms that can arise when the spine is misaligned can include but are not limited to: neck pain, low back pain, headaches, digestive problems, allergies, asthma, ADD/ADHD, sleeping problems, and many more.
How do massage therapy and chiropractic care work together? Much like chiropractic care, massage seeks to offer healing through a hands-on, drug-free technique, providing benefits of lasting relief. When combined, the two can be extremely helpful. Here are some of the reasons that an individual may benefit from the use of both chiropractic care and massage: quicker recovery, increased range of motion, improved circulation, improved posture, and a decrease in pain.
To assess the spine and nervous system, Dr. Meier does a full consultation, exam, nervous system scan, and set of X-rays. Normally, to have all of the appropriate testing done in the office it’s $130. However, for Rejuvenate with Christina clients, we’re extending an offer to come in for $52 through the month of July. If you or a loved one is experiencing any of these symptoms and would like an assessment to see how your nervous system is functioning please call our office to set up an appointment today at 469.941.4899
