Does Wet Weather Seem to Dampen the Way You Feel?
By Tom Herrin
There is something about wet weather that seems to amplify aches and pains. I’m sure some of it is psychological, but it also tends to point out physical problems we have. High and low pressure systems certainly affect our feeling of well-being. Those clear days often help to make us feel at our best. Those damp days sometimes seem to help us to feel every ache and pain. If this sounds like you, it may be time to consider chiropractic. Many people now consider chiropractic to be the best means available of improving lifestyle and providing an overall feeling of health and vitality.
Our Bodies Take A Lot Of Physical Stress
Everyday activities take a greater toll than we may realize. Just gravity and normal routine can create wear on our bodies. Joints are made to move, so they allow a certain amount of subtle movement and shifting. When the vertebrae move even slightly, pressure is placed on the delicate nerves that run through the spine. With this disruption of a clear path, we may have pain. Many times, we don’t realize this movement occurs at the time. We just accept it as getting older. The fact is, this movement, called subluxation, creates greater pain. It is unfortunate that so many people delay treatment because relief may be close at hand, literally.
How Is A Chiropractor Going To Help?
A chiropractor will examine you and determine the best course of action. Most of the time a chiropractic adjustment will be the first step. Your chiropractor will adjust your vertebrae by manipulating them back into place. Since it may have taken a while to move out of alignment, it may take several times to allow your body to fully move back into the correct place and stay. It is not uncommon to experience a little soreness after the first adjustment, which is a good indication that those muscles have gotten used to being out of the correct alignment.
You Will Appreciate The Lifestyle Change
If you have not experienced a chiropractic treatment before, you will feel pretty good about being treated without the use of drugs and medication. There is nothing to become addicted to. Your chiropractor can also give you some exercises that can help strengthen the muscles that support you, helping you to avoid a repeat of the same problem.
