The primary reason that people seek out chiropractic care is to relieve lower back pain, neck pain, headaches, etc. What is not common knowledge is that there are several other real benefits of maintaining a healthy spine and nervous system. These benefits include:
* Improved range of motion: Some people are naturally very flexible while others have limited motion due to injury or simply everyday use. When your spine is perfectly aligned there is a marked increase in your range of motion, this improvement provides benefits that perhaps you had forgotten about. You will have complete rotational freedom of your head, you can now turn your neck and head to back out of the driveway in the morning; you will be able to enjoy gardening once again and bend over to tie your shoes without pain. The human body was designed to move, our sedentary lifestyle leads to stiffness. Chicago chiropractors can help increase your range of motion without suffering any pain.
* Better sleep: When you spine is misaligned there is pain and tension, this makes it very difficult to get a good night’s sleep. It can be difficult to get to sleep in the first place and then when you move you may disturb yourself. Proper sleep is extremely important to your health. Chicago chiropractors can manipulate your spine, ensuring that it is properly aligned. A properly aligned spine leads to improved circulation and less tendency to toss and turn during sleep.
* Improve athletic performance: Regardless of the sport you are involved in; biking, running, swimming, body building, etc, proper alignment of the spine is crucial for the prevention of sports related injury. The slightest misalignment will cause unnecessary wear; this tends to accelerate the damage, resulting in pain. Serious athletes know the benefits of proper spinal adjustments including a marked increase in performance.
If you feel that you lack energy, you are not sleeping well or you are having problems with digestion you should seek the care of a skilled and dedicated chiropractor.
