How Chiropractic Care Can Get You Some Shut-Eye
By Genevieve Cunningham
Sleep is one of those things that everyone wants and no one gets. If only we could put it on our Christmas lists and let Santa bring it. Ahhhh, if only. Unfortunately, most people simply go without their precious shut-eye. Whether it’s because of work, kids, or just life, we’re usually left wanting more.
For some people who need more sleep, chiropractic care has been an incredible answer. If you haven’t tried it, you might be skeptical. But, more and more people are hailing its benefits. Check out these ways in which chiropractic care may help lull you to sleep and keep you refreshed and energized.
Why We Don’t Get Sleep
This list could go on forever, but let’s discuss a few common factors:
-
Families - I love that sweet baby, I really do. But seriously, he is quite the sleep sucking creature. Families bring responsibilities, and unfortunately, too little sleep.
-
Work - Too many hours, too much to do, too many responsibilities. Sound like work? Yeah, it does to everyone else too. Work, though necessary and wonderful all at the same time, definitely causes a lack of sleep for many people.
-
Pain - When you’re uncomfortable, it’s hard to sleep. Need I say more?
-
Lack of Routine - Your body needs and craves routine. When you don’t give it routine, it rebels in routine. Want more sleep? A routine is necessary.
Why Chiropractic Care Helps
While this sort of care won’t help with kids or work, it really does enable some people to get more sleep. Here’s how:
-
Less Pain - This is a well known benefit of chiropractic care. Chiropractors align the spine, which then releases both pain and tension and leaves your body in a much more comfortable state.
-
More Energy - This sounds counterproductive, but more energy throughout the day means that you’re more likely to be tired at night. Since an aligned spine also means a better functioning central nervous system, energy is often freed up and at your disposal. This is good news for those who can’t seem to relax at night.
-
Better Balance - Chiropractic care helps to balance your body. The more balanced your body, the more able you’ll be to balance your mind as well. This can help with routine, as balance tends to spill over from one area to another. A balanced body, balanced mind, balanced life. You get the idea.
