How Chiropractic Can Help with Digestion

Digestive issues and stomach pain can be a serious issue and is often made worse by the rich and unhealthy foods associated with the holidays. No one wants to constantly worry when their stomach issues are going to act up and an effective treatment can be challenging to find. Whether you’re frying up latkes or baking Christmas cookies, chiropractic may be the natural and non-invasive solution you are looking for.

Chiropractic: It’s for More than Back Pain

Dr. Jared Hoffman and Dr. Thomas Dickert are well known in Brooklyn as back and neck doctors, but did you know regular adjustments can benefit the entire body? Chiropractors focus on treating the spine, which is essential to the function of the central nervous system, which is responsible for every function in the body – including digestion. When it isn’t functioning as it should, the other systems don’t perform at their best, either. By improving the health of the central nervous system, you enable it to function optimally which allows the other systems of the body to follow suit.

How Chiropractic Can Help with Stomach Issues

The first approach will be to return the spine to its proper alignment. Everyday wear and tear cause the vertebrae to move out of place or become misaligned. Spinal manipulations and other chiropractic treatments can return those vertebrae to their place. This allows the spine and central nervous system to work together to improve the health and function of the rest of the body systems, including the digestive system.

Studies have found that with regular chiropractic care, digestive issues including discomfort, heartburn, and bloating have decreased and patients have seen an improvement in constipation and irregularity. One of the foundational pillars of chiropractic is the body’s natural ability to heal itself, so why depend on medications when you can help your body heal itself naturally?
