Need More Sleep? Chiropractic Solutions

By Randi Morse

One of the things the average adult doesn't get enough of is sleep. Sleep is extremely important for our bodies, but it often feels like there aren't enough hours in the day to allow us to get the sleep that we need. Then there are those times when we finally make the time to get to sleep we need and we are unable to fall asleep, or we do not sleep deeply enough to give our bodies the rest it needs. If you are having a difficult time sleeping, the solution may be as close as your nearest chiropractor's office.

Insomnia

Unless you've had insomnia you can't understand the frustration and depression that being unable to fall asleep brings on. There are a number of reasons why people deal with insomnia, but the truth is we aren't sure what causes insomnia and everybody. Here are some of the most common reasons why people aren't able to sleep well.

Distractions - The world we live in is filled with screen, now more than ever people are unable to sleep because they are distracted. Falling asleep with the television on may seem relaxing, but you may be staying awake longer simply because the television is on. Keeping your bedroom screen free may help you get to sleep easier.

Routine -  When children are young, one of the first things we are told is that they need to have a routine. The same advice holds true for adults. Erratic schedules prevent our bodies from figuring out when it is time to sleep and when it is time to be awake. Having a routine give your body the security and knowledge it needs to help you fall asleep and stay asleep when you should.

Discomfort - If you are dealing with a great deal of pain or discomfort, sleep may seem almost impossible. You may find that a visit to your local chiropractor is the solution. Pain nerves flow through the spinal column, and if there is a restriction in the joint, your brain may be getting the wrong pain signals.
