How Chiropractic Care Contributes to Wellness in Lakeville
One of the most important concepts of wellness is that your symptoms (pain, muscle spams, etc.) are generally the last indicators of compromised health. This means that you can have something going on without having any pain. This concept is rooted in dental hygiene- do you go to the dentist when you are not in pain? Of course you do, and your dentist expects to see you every six months for routine check-ups and cleanings. This concept is also integrated in diet and exercise- are you recommended to exercise and eat well only when you feel unhealthy or sick?
Rather than measuring our health by symptoms we experience, the most accurate way to evaluate our health is by determining how well our bodies adapt to physical, mental, and emotional stress.
We know that consistent chiropractic care can improve your nervous system’s ability to adapt to stress by removing obstructions in the spine. Research has demonstrated the positive effects chiropractic care can have on heart rate variability (HRV), which is an indicator of the nervous system’s ability to react to stress.
Back to the original question and answer… the frequency of visits to your chiropractor depends on the amount of physical, mental, and emotional stress that your body encounters, and how well your nervous system can adapt to that stress.
