I wanted to take a moment to talk about something many of us don’t think about when it comes to stress. We often focus on emotional stress—especially with how much we deal with in today’s fast-paced world—but stress can also be physical and chemical, and it affects your spine in ways that aren’t always obvious.
One of the biggest physical stressors we face every day is something none of us can escape: gravity.
Gravity is a constant force that puts pressure on our bodies, especially our spine and nervous system. Think about it—your head weighs about as much as a bowling ball, and your uppermost vertebra carries that weight all day long on a surface area no bigger than the one formed between your thumb and index finger when you bring them together!
Chiropractic care plays a key role in helping you manage this burden. By keeping your spine aligned, we’re able to reduce the strain that gravity places on your body. Essentially, chiropractic care acts like your own personal anti-gravity machine, helping you stay balanced and in harmony with the world around you.
While we can’t escape gravity, we can make sure it has less of an impact on your health and well-being. Step one: just come in and chat with us – a consultation is a conversation, not a commitment, and it’s always complimentary.
Yours in good health,
Dr. Jane
