We often associate chiropractic care with accidents and injuries. Did you know that regular chiropractic therapy plays an integral role in promoting whole body health? Our next series of articles will highlight some ways in which various types of chiropractic therapy (i.e., adjustments, dynamic cupping, chiropractic massage, etc.) can help improve and maintain your overall health.

Reduces Stress and Tension

As we have discussed in previous articles, chiropractic care can significantly reduce stress and tension throughout the body. Chiropractic massage, dynamic cupping therapy, spinal adjustments, decompression therapy and other treatments can reduce blood pressure, ease muscle tension, slow high rates of breathing, reduce lung inflammation and more.

Enable Electrical Impulses to Freely Travel Throughout the Body

Your body relies on electrical impulses to send messages from the brain via the spinal cord to other parts of your body. When there is a “block”, these electrical impulses can be affected.  Chiropractic adjustments, chiropractic massage, decompression therapy, dynamic cupping, and other techniques help resolve these “blocks”, thus enabling electrical impulses to freely travel throughout the body without interruption.
