CHIROPRACTIC AND INFLAMMATION
Inflammation is a natural part of the healing process, but when it becomes chronic, it can contribute to joint pain, fatigue, poor immunity, and even serious conditions like heart disease or arthritis. While medications may offer temporary relief, chiropractic care targets one of the most overlooked contributors to inflammation: nervous system interference.
Key Insight:
When the spine is misaligned, it can place stress on the nervous system, disrupt communication between the brain and body, and trigger an inflammatory response. Chiropractic adjustments help restore proper alignment and improve nervous system function, which can naturally reduce inflammation at its source.
If you’re struggling with pain, stiffness, or signs of chronic inflammation, chiropractic care may offer a safe, drug-free path to healing.
