#getadjusted movement: Day 11

Day 11: What is the most common condition you see in your practice?

The most common condition I see in my practice is stress. Stress can manifest in the body in many different ways. Stress can lead to injury, delayed healing, digestive issues, illness, poor posture and headaches to name a few. This is why ensuring all aspects of my patients’ lives are congruent with achieving wellness is so important. It is way more than “my back hurts.” When the body is constantly under stress it lives in the sympathetic nervous system, or flight or fight mode. This state depletes the body of its resources it should be using to heal an injury or strengthen the immune system. Chiropractic adjustments and developing positive habits to combat stressors facilitates the body’s shift to the parasympathetic nervous system. The parasympathetic nervous system is the rest and digest mode. Removing interference from the nervous system via spinal adjustments allows the brain to effectively communicate with every cell, organ and tissue in the body.  This state frees up resources to allow the body to heal and repair from the inside out.
