Do You Offer Classes or Workshops
We offer onsite workshops on a number of topics which can include subjects that have been requested. Some examples would be: Central Nervous System Health, Physical Fitness at Work, Posture/Ergonomics, Nutrition/Food/Preparing Meals, Emotional Well-being, Mindfulness at Work and at Home, Conflict Resolution, Team Work and Space Awareness.
Why is Chiropractic Part of Your Program
As most people already know, the central nervous system is the master system and controller of the body. More of the world population is looking for a healthcare option that is natural and in keeping with the bodies natural expression of health.
When people have aches and pain it makes more sense to correct the cause, rather than cover up symptoms with chemicals. That is why over 1 million chiropractic adjustments are delivered in the U.S. daily.
Besides being highly educated in the area of healthcare, chiropractors can compassionately and gently facilitate the correction of interference with the central nervous system.
The Brain Reward Cascade
The brain produces feel good hormones. These hormomes make us feel happy, calm, peaceful, and they can give us a general sense of well-being. However, interference with the nervous system flow, as far down as the pelvis, can reduce our ability to produce those “happy” hormones. The predominate production of seratonin in the gut and the potential interference of neuropeptide receptors in the spine is why the chiropractic adjustment can lead to feelings of well-being.
It’s true our patients quite often say they are feeling better, happier and more productive. Some say it just feels like their body is working better, sleeping better and they are experiencing a higher quality of life.
How Can a Wellness Program Reduce Stress
Chemical, physical and emotional stress causes damage. Stress can interfere with the personal and professional lives of a large majority of our population. Stress has an impact on the body that can produce a continual interference with the normal function of the nervous system and the related functions of the organs. A surgeon once mentioned that 85% of the people in the hospital are there because of stress related interference with their normal function.
Fortunately, chiropractic care can help. Regular adjustments by a chiropractor can help correct this interference to restore and normalize the function of the nervous system.
The fight-or-flight response can initiate the stress that affects every part of the body. The brain via the sympathetic nervous system, raises the heart rate and blood pressure to prepare for the inevitable. It does not matter if the stress is real or perceived. The brain does not know the difference.
Stress increases muscle tension which in turn can cause spinal misalignment and abnormal pressure on the nervous system. The immune system is also impaired, and healing is slowed.
Chiropractic adjustments release muscle tension, soothe irritated spinal nerves and improve blood circulation—changes that can often alert the brain to switch off the fight-or-flight response so the body can return to a more relaxed state. The brain goes from Reward Deficiency to Reward Cascade, and the actual or perceived threat is properly handled. Again, the brain does not know the difference between a real or perceived threat. The nervous system reacts the same way.
A chiropractor can also recommend nutritional supplementation, rehabilitative exercises, deep-tissue massage, relaxation techniques and postural changes to help patients manage stress.
