This is a common theme in our culture in America today.  Too much going on and not enough hours in the day to do it.  Kids activities every night and the family seldom have downtime to be together.  Work hours keep getting extended because of deadlines and there is less free time than ever.  Sound familiar?

The human body is designed to be able to adapt itself to almost anything we do in life.  If we walk out of a house that is 72* and into the -30* winter cold, our body raises our internal temperature so that we don’t freeze to death.  Likewise, if we are in 120* desert sun, our body will begin to sweat to cool off and maintain as normal of a temperature as possible.

This ability is what allows the human body to survive extreme amounts of physical, mental and chemical stresses each and every day of our lives.  When our body begins to lose that ability the first place we should look is the system that coordinates the entire process, the nerve system.

The brain, spinal cord, and nerves work together to see that the body responds as quickly and efficiently as possible to everything the body does.  When the system is compromised it is necessary to check the nerves to see that they are all working appropriately.  This is where a Chiropractor comes in.

A Chiropractor will analyze the function of the nerve system to see that communication pathways from the brain to the body are working as optimally as possible.  If it is not then a Chiropractic adjustment may be necessary to correct the problem.

If you think you may be dealing with stress overload, find a Chiropractor who analyzes the spine and nerve system and takes structural x-rays to see how they can help!
