Why schedule monthly chiropractic adjustments?

• Adjustments provide lubrication to the tiny joints of your spine that can otherwise stiffen up over time, eventually leading to arthritis

• Inflammation hardens over time (specifically over about 4 weeks) creating adhesion and fibrosis between layers of muscles, ligaments and joint capsules. Adjustments break up these adhesions and allow your body to process and get rid of inflammation

• Improve sports performance in the way of mobility, speed and strength. Adjustments improve joint mobility, ligament alignment and affect and reset muscle spindles and corpuscles which allow them to be more responsive. 

• Reset your nervous system. Adjustments have a profound effect on the nervous system and it’s communication with your entire body. You may sleep better, have better focus and concentration at work or school and feel more relaxed.

• Feel better. Adjustments affect your immune system, sinuses, ear cavities and reduce headache triggers. Adjustments also improve digestion and PMS symptoms.
