Pain is no fun, but it’s a warning sign that tells us that something is wrong.
When we notice back and neck pain, the nerves are usually irritated there, but they are also irritated in the gut or your insides.
Since most of our insides lack pain-sensing nerves, this is a blessing. When someone receives chiropractic care for their neck or back pain, they get the added benefit of unknowingly enhancing the function of affected organs and tissues.
Because the whole-body is likely affected by the nerve irritation we feel in the spine, there are many more benefits to having an adjustment other that back pain relief. I once heard it said that going to a chiropractor just for back pain is like going to Starbucks and ordering a plain, black coffee.
Seeing a doctor who improves your whole body instead of each individual part is more wholistic and best for wellness. It helps us to stay healthier and live longer.
