Ways Chiropractic Can Help Anyone in Your Family

By Sara Butler

Your body was designed to lead an active life. From the time you're just a baby crawling on all fours to the time you're a senior trying to perfect your golf swing, the body you have is meant to help you lead a vibrant life. Helping your body to handle the bumps in the road along the way is where chiropractic care comes into play.

Chiropractic is a natural, effective treatment for a variety of conditions and is appropriate for people of all ages. Here are just a few of the ways that chiropractic can help anyone in your family achieve optimal health no matter what stage of life they're in.

What Can Chiropractic Treat?

Chiropractic care is a useful treatment for a variety of conditions. While most people associate it with back and neck pain, which it does help, chiropractic is also useful in the treatment of conditions such as:

  • Headaches
  • Migraines
  • Stress and anxiety
  • Sinus problems
  • Whiplash
  • Hip pain
  • Shoulder pain
  • Knee Pain
  • Muscle spasms
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome
  • Jaw pain
  • Asthma
  • Allergies
  • Colic
  • Ear infections
  • Arthritis
  • Sciatica
  • Scoliosis
  • Lifting injuries
  • Sports injuries
  • Falling injuries

The goal of chiropractic is to identify and treat joint dysfunctions that may be interrupting the communication between your central nervous system and the rest of your body. Once your brain and spinal cord can send signals unimpeded everywhere, then the body can do what it was made to do: heal itself.

Chiropractic Benefits Through the Ages

Chiropractic care offers a host of benefits to people of all ages.

Infants and Children

The first few years of life can be bumpy. From the birth process to learning to walk to climbing trees, newborns and children can benefit from regular chiropractic care too.

For babies, the birth process can put stress on the central nervous system that can lead to joint dysfunctions that contribute to common issues seen in babies such as chronic ear infections, trouble sleeping, and colic.

In older children, their energetic and active lives can lead to injuries and accidents. Even everyday stress and strain from things such as heavy backpacks or using handheld devices can lead to musculoskeletal issues that can cause problems. Chiropractic care can help ensure that your child's growth and development isn't impeded by injuries or dysfunctions.

Teens

Many teens are involved in sports -- even if that sport is texting as fast as they can. Poor posture combined with potential sports injuries can be an issue for kids in their teenage years, having a negative impact on the central nervous system. Taking them for regular chiropractic care can help them stay strong and flexible while also helping to relieve any pain and stiffness they may encounter from injuries, both new and old.

Adults

By the time you enter adulthood, your body has seen a lot. The chiropractors at The Joint Chiropractic often perform spinal adjustments to help rehabilitate old injuries and attack joint dysfunctions that can cause communication problems within the body.

Many adults also work jobs that are physically demanding -- from being on their feet all day to sitting behind a desk, it all takes a toll on your body. The chiropractors at The Joint can help you to feel better and also help you to discover some of the other benefits to chiropractic care as an adult, such as reduced pain, better sleep, and less stress.

Seniors

Many older people who seek out chiropractic care report vast improvements to their quality of life. The chiropractic techniques used on seniors can help improve things such as balance and the range of motion in the joints. It can also help to reduce symptoms experienced as a result of degenerative conditions such as arthritis and help seniors avoid falls that can lead to sharp declines in health.

No matter your age, chiropractic care has something to offer you and it's never too late (or too early) to start. It's effective care that millions of Americans use each year to help them lead healthier and more productive lives, so help your family get started and bring them into The Joint Chiropractic today.
