Between the stresses of gift giving, travel and entertaining, coupled with endless buffets of cookies, cheeses and cocktails, the holiday season is hardly synonymous with good health. A few homemade cookies might not be the end of the world, but a month of unhealthy eating coupled with hectic, stressful schedules can be enough to set our bodies up for some serious January blues.
3 Ways Chiropractic Care Keeps Us Healthy
Brentwood chiropractic care helps keep our bodies healthy by supporting wellness from within, no matter the time of year. Read on to learn how chiropractic care can help you stay healthy this holiday season so you start the New Year off feeling like the best version of you:
#1: Manage stress naturally. Whether you’re hosting family from out of town, traveling to a relative’s home, or simply rushing around town trying to get all the last-minute errands complete, the holidays are often more hectic than happy. Beat holiday stress with our wellness services like massage therapy. Schedule a therapeutic massage to receive important physiological and mind-body benefits, including lower cortisol levels (the hormone associated with stress and weight gain) and less muscular tension.
#2: Be mindful about eating habits. Our Revolutionary Nutrition program helps patients stay on target with weight loss and nutrition goals. All-natural nutrition supplements boost the metabolism while helping to lower blood pressure and promote natural weight loss. If you’re worried that holiday overindulging could cause you to gain weight, talk to our chiropractor about putting together a custom nutrition plan. We’ll help you stay focused on healthy weight loss – and still be sure there’s room for a few holiday treats.
#3: Reduce your risk for holiday colds. A strong immune system is essential to fighting off colds and other illnesses during the holidays. However, even a minor spinal misalignment can impact our immune system’s ability to correctly function. Spinal misalignments affect the nervous system’s ability to communicate effectively with the brain. Chiropractic adjustments correct these misalignments, supporting a strong immune system.
