Managing Your Stress: Chiropractic Stress Relief
Stress is a reality of life. The good news is that chiropractic care is useful in helping individuals manage their stress and live a happier, healthier life.
There are three basic “channels” through which we perceive stress: traumas, thoughts and toxins.
- Traumas: Physical stress like accidents, strains, and sprains are easy to understand as a source of stress. However, one of the biggest physical stresses we are subjected to is sitting for long periods of time.
- Thoughts: Emotional stress can be much trickier to identify as being “busy” or “stressed” is often what is considered normal in our modern world. Stress from work, family life, and unhealthy or toxic relationships, can have long reaching and enormous effects on our body and nervous system. Feeling tired, worn down, having mood swings, or poor sleep are good indications that your emotional stress is taking a toll on your quality of life.
- Toxins: Chemical stress comes from both our internal and external environment. Our diet, smoking, and excessive or unnecessary medications can all move our body away from balance.
When under stress, the body’s fight or flight response is triggered. Your sympathetic nervous system is stimulated, which means your heart beats faster and your senses become more acute. This is a protective mechanism. However, the danger is that in modern society, we have become overstressed. Chronic stress on the body can manifest as high blood pressure, migraine headaches, autoimmune disorders, and more. While stress can be beneficial in certain high-performance situations, experiencing it constantly will leave you significantly worse for wear.
Luckily, chiropractic care can help you manage your stress. After all, chiropractic focuses on the spine, which is the root of the central nervous system and overall health. Call today to experience how chiropractic adjustments can help alleviate the effects of your chronic stress, thus helping you lead a more fruitful and productive life.

I’ve dealt with lower back pain for many years. After having 2 kids in 2 years it became too much and I went to a back pain doctor who put me through 5 weeks of physical therapy. Unfortunately that didn’t work and was very frustrating because I really worked hard at it, stopped running and would do the daily recommended exercises and stretches. My wonderful neighbor recommended I come here and within my first appointment I left feeling much better! Im excited for me new health journey with Van Ness Chiropractic!
I’ve been to many chiropractors for upper back and neck issues and Van Ness Chiropractic is the best! Dr. Jeff and Dr. Rani are amazing! I went in with terrible pain and they had me feeling better in no time. The office is very relaxing and everyone is so friendly and kind. Scheduling is always easy, even when I need care last minute, they alway make time for me! I always look forward to all my visits with the team!
After rounds and rounds at many other chiropractors with no success, I was referred to Van Ness Chiro! The doctors listen to your concerns and address them accordingly. I have been an avid patient for almost a year and every adjustment has been different! This speaks volumes as they truly adjust what is necessary versus the “basic” for everyone. I have also thoroughly enjoyed the additional services that are offered such as electro therapy (included with you adjustment), acupuncture, cupping and massage! The office staff is also very understanding and accommodating! 100% recommend!
Dr. Jeff Parkin & Dr. Rani Sabri are amazing! This is my first chiropractic experience & I would recommend Van Ness Chiropractic to anyone. The atmosphere in the office is completely relaxing. I look forward to each visit. I've also tried the acupuncture sessions and truly love them. Leaving each session, I feel relaxed, renewed & rejuvenated!
Van Ness Chiropractic is a place that cares for its’ patients like they are family. I’ve had many freak accidents and have called them first for help. Each provider wants to help you be at your best, and it’s rare these days to feel cared for after leaving the doctor. So grateful for them!
I love Van Ness Chiropractic! The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating! Dr VanNess has does wonders for my pain. I have worked as a CA and his technique is very effective compared to previous chiropractors I’ve worked with and have been treated by. I would highly recommend making an appt. You will not regret it.
I have been to many chiropractors before for low back issues. Van Ness Chiropractic is the best I have experienced. Dr. Van Ness is very knowledgeable, professional has kept me moving without pain. Everyone in the practice is friendly and caring. I appreciate that they offer alternative remedies, such as dry needling to alleviate sports injuries. Thank you Dr. Rani! I highly recommend the practice.

I can't say enough about Dr. Jason Van Ness and the team at Van Ness Chiropractic! When people ask if I know a good Chiropractor in town, without hesitation, I recommend Van Ness Chiropractic. Not only for "fixing" what's broken, but for wellness maintenance, too. I see people in the office ranging from babies to elderly, athletes of all kinds, people who travel far and wide and make time, when in town, to visit Dr. Van Ness. Van Ness Chiropractic offers a vainly of services and is not limited to Chiropractic care. Besides my regular Chiropractic visits, I have taken advantage of Acupuncture and Massage Therapy. My quality of life is enriched by regular visits to Dr. Jason Van Ness and his team!Stop by and meet the team...you'll be thankful you did.
Dr.Van Ness has built himself a great place for health. I’ve been seeing him since he did a residency with Dr.Cox, late 1990s. As a legacy patient he has always kept me straight. He even came in on a weekend to assist my wife with an issue. His place isn’t just straightening crooked people. He treats young athletes to the “ole guys” equally. His center of health has a variety of therapists to get you the proper care you want.
I have been nothing but happy and feeling great after 6 1/2 years of seeing Jason and Jeff! Thank you for being so positive and always available!Your office and staff are wonderful and so welcoming! Keep up the awesomeness and congratulations on the big 25!
I didn’t even know I had mild back problems until I came here. Very thorough and very friendly staff! I love the fact that it’s also a clean and safe place as they wipe surfaces often. Definitely recommend!
