Stress Management

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.

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.

chiropractic and stress relief - managing stress with chiropractic careWhen 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 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 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!
