When Worry Won't Quit, Chiropractic May Help

By Sandy Schroeder

We all worry when we have too much to do, too many bills, or too much sickness, but constant worry is different. When worry simply never quits, it leaves its imprint on everything we do and demands solutions.

If you are living with constant anxiety, you may want to see your doctor for a referral to a psychologist to work through the issues.

At the same time, you may find chiropractic support can help you work on daily wellness with better sleep, more energy and less pain.  

How Your Chiropractor Can Help

Stop by The Joint Chiropractic clinic near you to get started. The Joint’s doctors of chiropractic will start where you are to help you find the best answers.

The chiropractic focus on spinal health may help you start fresh with a gentle targeted spinal adjustment to relieve aches and pains and generate well-being. Weekly 15-minute adjustments may help you stay relaxed and develop some good stress relief habits.

Get outdoors - Find time every day to enjoy the greenery and soak up some sun. Researchers have shown outdoor time lifts the spirit and relaxes the mind and the body.

Start moving - Try for 30 minutes each day to walk, bike, run or jog. Or do other fun things like dancing, skating, playing golf or shooting hoops.

Reach out - Make the effort to connect with friends and family for lunch, dinner or weekend visits. Knowing you have the support of others helps to lower stress.

Laugh a little - Look for the funny side in old movies, jokes, and zany friends. Laughter releases tension, relaxing the mind and the body.

Lend a hand - Helping someone in need can put everything in perspective. Enjoy the feelings of satisfaction that come with giving.

Find a group - If you have lost someone, look for a support group to talk with others who are in the same place.

Add a furry friend - If it works at your house, consider adopting a dog or cat that needs a home. Pets make wonderful listeners.

Make sleep a priority - Turn your bedroom into a sleep haven with white noise air filters and light-blocking drapes. Leave your electronics outside and close out the day with soft music, a warm bath or some gentle stretching.
