As I'm sure you all know, the holiday season can be a stressful time no matter what your situation. And now that the holiday season is officially over, there's some things that you can do to de-stress.
Most people don't associate chiropractic with being a de-stressor, however, regular chiropractic care is one of the best ways to ensure that stress doesn't take a stranglehold on your body.
When your spine and nervous system are correctly aligned, there won't be any disturbances with the connection from your brain to your body and vice versa. When your body and brain are able to communicate without any interference, it can deal with other problems more easily.
When your spine is lined up, it also isn't pulling on muscles, ligaments, and tendons abnormally. If these soft tissues aren't being stressed in different directions, it is much easier for your body to relax and to feel relaxed.
There's another realm of medicine that we have talked about briefly called psychoneuroimmunology. This basically states that when your body is able to correctly communicate with itself, it makes you have a better outlook on life. Essentially, you feel happier. And when you feel happier, you tend to be less stressed.
So, I guess what I'm really trying to say is that if you feel stressed or even overly stressed, try getting a chiropractic adjustment along with your massage or meditation or deep breathing. It will probably help more than you might think.
