Have you ever heard someone blame their condition or problem on a “chemical imbalance”? Well as crazy as that sounds, there may be some truth to it.
In a chemistry lab, if you add more acid than the experiment calls for, you may end up with some dangerous results! When the chemicals of your body are out of balance (too much adrenaline, too much blood sugar, etc) this can also cause some dangerous results to your health. This is precisely why in America, we see hundreds of “side effects” with prescription and OTC drugs. Drugs are unnatural and they confuse the body with artificial chemicals and concentrations. As a result, some functions will abnormally increase or decrease (heart rate, breathing, blood pressure, energy, etc).
Your body naturally produces it’s own chemicals to control functions like energy, moods, menstrual cycles, immunity, digestion, heart rate, blood pressure, and sleep. Chiropractic works with the nerve system which is what balances the chemistry of your body. If our central nerve system has a CLEAR channel to send messages through the spine, life is good. If any of the 24 spinal bones moves out of position, this can alter the body chemistry, creating a multitude of problems! Chiropractic has one objective: to find and correct this nerve interference, for optimum expression of life! Get your spine checked regularly for a balanced body chemistry!
