Chiropractic Care for Allergies 

The arrival of spring is usually a time of excitement and anticipation. It’s also a time of growing leaves and flowers, and the days are getting longer. Unfortunately, for many of us, the season brings about an unpleasant feeling of sneezing, runny noses, and itchy eyes. We tend to grab a few tissues instead of stopping and smelling the flowers. 

Although many people are aware that chiropractic can help improve many conditions, it is also beneficial for those suffering from asthma and seasonal allergies. If you are one of those individuals who are suffering from these conditions, it’s important to take a look at chiropractic care. 

 

What Causes Allergies?

The immune system is a vital part of our body that is responsible for removing harmful substances from our bodies. It can perform various tasks such as vomiting, coughing, and sneezing to remove dangerous substances. 

An allergic response is triggered by the body’s response to a substance that’s considered harmful. However, this allergic reaction is not caused by the substance itself. Instead, it’s caused by how the body interprets the substance. 

 

Body Reaction 

When allergic reactions are initiated, the body releases special cells known as mast cells. These cells can recognize and interpret harmful substances by releasing histamines. These chemicals then trigger an allergic response and help the body remove the harmful substances from its environment. 

 

How Can Chiropractors Help? 

The goal of chiropractic care is to release the nervous system so that it can function properly, which will help the body’s immune system to function properly. Both the respiratory and immune systems rely on the communication between the spinal cord and the brain to coordinate their functions. If the communication between the spinal cord and the brain is disrupted, the immune system might become compromised. 

The goal of chiropractic care is to release the nervous system so that it can function properly, which will help the body’s immune system to function properly. It can then attack foreign substances such as pollen and pollution before they can cause damage. 

The goal of chiropractic care is also to restore the relationship between the brain and the spinal cord, which is disrupted when the vertebrae are misaligned. Through the manipulation of the soft tissue and joints, the pathways between the brain and the spinal cord can be opened up. 

 

Conclusion 

Although chiropractic care can help with various conditions, it doesn’t treat allergic reactions. Instead, it focuses on the elimination of interference to the nervous system, which allows the body to function properly. 

The goal of chiropractic care is to restore the relationship between the spinal cord and the brain, which is disrupted when the vertebrae are misaligned. Through the manipulation of the soft tissues and joints, the pathways between the brain and the spinal cord can be opened up.
