Cashing In On Chiropractic

All forms of transportation have one thing in common; an engine drives each. The engine is the power behind the operation. You can’t see it but you can see the effects. Without the engine, travel would come to a screeching halt.

Likewise, America depends on its working force. From Wall Street to 4th Street, everyone plays an integral part in keeping our economic engine running smoothly and efficiently. Many times those who put in a full day’s work are not fully recognized for their efforts. Servers, bank tellers, and cashiers … they are on their feet all day behind the scenes making restaurants, banks, auto parts dealers, big box stores and the mom-and-pops on Main Street great -- and making this the greatest country on the planet.

The working class at this level is known for its hard work and has some of the most down-in-the-dirt pressure on them as they drive the economic engine: Operating at peak performance is a requirement, not an option. You are on the front line contacting people, shaking hands and touching money. Germs and infections can be passed in various ways from one person to another. You need a healthy immune system to stay well and do your job.

The human body is designed to stay healthy. Our immune system, when functioning at its optimum, is made to fight off, hunt down and destroy these viruses and foreign organisms like Pacman. When our immune system is functioning at less than its best, our health suffers and, as part of the engine that keeps our economy going, so do those who depend on you. That’s why it’s important to create the healthy habit of incorporating chiropractic into your lifestyle: To help optimize and maximize your wellness potential.

Just as an engine needs regular maintenance, so do you, the American worker. From something as simple as standing all day on your feet to the shoes you wear can cause stress to your spine and lower extremities. This stress can cause joint restrictions, otherwise known as “joint dysfunctions” or “subluxations,” many times without you even knowing it. When spinal joints become restricted in movement, the rest of the body can be affected in ways you never thought possible. Normal nerve communication is inhibited. Your immune system suffers. Your health suffers. Your job suffers. Those who depend on you suffer and, eventually, your lifestyle suffers. Symptoms such as pain and discomfort manifest as your body’s way of telling you something is wrong. Masking pain and discomfort will only provide temporary relief. For every cause there is an effect. Likewise, for every symptom there has to be a cause.

How Chiropractic Affects Immune System and Performance

When one or more joints become restricted in the spine, it causes a lack of motion that, in turn, can cause an interruption of the nerve communication from the brain to the body. This interruption can affect the cells, tissues and organs of the body thereby inhibiting your performance and ability to fight off illness. Licensed doctors of chiropractic (such as those at The Joint Chiropractic), referred to as DCs, apply a gentle, targeted movement to the restricted joints to improve motion of the body’s spinal column and extremities, thereby enhancing nerve function. This highly controlled procedure is known as a chiropractic adjustment.

• Chiropractic is widely recognized as one of the safest, drug-free, non-invasive forms of health care available
• Chiropractic improves joint mobility, physical performance and overall function by applying a gentle, controlled movement into the restricted joints

The working class is the backbone of businesses and is expected to be "on" 100 percent of the time. Isn’t it time you made chiropractic a regular part of your wellness lifestyle? Have your spine checked for joint dysfunctions. Whether suffering from pain or not, keeping your body functioning at its peak may be one of the best investments you have ever made. More and more workers are cashing in on the benefits of routine chiropractic care. They are learning that chiropractic makes a much better vitamin than it does an aspirin. Discover how millions of Americans have not only found relief from pain, but also a pathway to wellness and a healthier, more active lifestyle by making chiropractic part of their healthy habit regimen.
